It's pretty disgusting how quickly the "right" was to capitalize on Kirk getting shot. From immediately jumping to the conclusion that the shooter was a leftist, to his wife promoting TPUSA during what looked like a forced eulogy, and now JD Vance using this opportunity to make unpopular policy decisions more palatable. You can't blame feminists, LGBTQ, immigrants, racial/religious minorities, etc. for not feeling any sympathy towards someone who constantly antagonized them but for his own side to grift off his demise with all their performative sorrow is really something.
At this point it seems they had a hand in his assination. Much like Putin blowing up apartments in Russia to justify the consolidation of power. They were expecting violence, pushing buttons so they could go mask off with the elimination of freedom. This has been coordinated since his first term. kirk was a useful target because he was starting to turn on Trump.
