Trump told a packed audience at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona Sunday that he remembered Charlie Kirk as someone who “did not hate his opponents.”

“He wanted the best for them,” Trump said. “That’s where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponents, and I don’t want the best for them. I’m sorry.”

The president’s words on Sunday were notably different in tone from those of other speakers, including Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk’s widow, who forgave the shooter who took her husband’s life, saying, “I forgive him because it was what Christ did and it is what Charlie would do.” Video from the memorial showed audience members, some visibly emotional, stand and applaud.
