The right is very worried and temperatures need to cool down quickly.
President Donald Trump has issued a chilling warning after the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk — and his private words reveal just how dangerous America’s political climate has become.
According to Utah Governor Spencer Cox, Trump fears that he and other top Republicans could be next on the list. Cox shared details of their tense phone call on national television Sunday, confirming that the former president is deeply alarmed by the growing wave of political violence sweeping the nation.
Trump’s Dire Warning After Charlie Kirk’s Murder
The stunning revelation comes just days after Charlie Kirk, 31, was brutally gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University during his “American Comeback Tour.”
“It was a long, very sobering conversation,” Gov. Cox told CNN’s State of the Union.
Trump reportedly told Cox:
“The type of person who would do something like that to Charlie Kirk would love to do it to us.”
Cox didn’t hold back, admitting Trump’s fears are justified. “He knows better than anyone. As someone who was nearly killed by a bullet himself, he understands the danger better than anyone,” Cox said, referencing Trump’s near-fatal assassination attempt last year.
The Suspect Behind the Attack
Authorities captured 22-year-old Tyler Robinson after a tense 33-hour manhunt.
- Robinson was described as a trade-school student and former Mormon.
- According to Gov. Cox, he was “deeply indoctrinated in leftist ideology.”
- Robinson has refused to cooperate with investigators.
Trump has demanded the death penalty for Robinson, blaming the radical left and today’s toxic political environment for influencing the killer to commit cold-blooded murder.
White House Calls for Calm — While the Left Fans the Flames
Even amid his anger, Trump is urging conservatives to remain peaceful, echoing the values Kirk stood for.
“Charlie was an advocate of nonviolence. That’s how we must respond,” Trump said Thursday.
Gov. Cox revealed the White House personally asked him to speak out on national television to warn Americans about the rising danger. “These are very dangerous jobs these days,” Cox said on ABC News. “The political climate is more explosive than ever.”
Steve Bannon Speaks Out — Cox Responds
Not everyone is pleased with Cox’s call for restraint. Steve Bannon and other right-leaning figures have blasted the governor for urging people to tone down their rhetoric.
Cox responded carefully: “Mr. Bannon is angry — and rightfully so,” while still stressing that uncontrolled anger could fuel more violence.
Social Media’s Role in Radicalizing Killers
Cox also took aim at social media, accusing social media companies of poisoning America’s political discourse.
Cox warned that social media has been a driving force behind nearly every political assassination and attempted assassination over the past five to six years, comparing its toxic influence to a spreading cancer.
Utah became the first state to pass comprehensive reforms protecting children and families from harmful algorithms.
America on Edge
As Trump grieves the loss of his close friend and ally, his private warning to Gov. Cox should send chills down the spine of every American:
“The same forces that went after Charlie Kirk are coming for us next.”
The shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk is a grim reminder that America’s divisions have reached a breaking point — and even the nation’s most powerful leaders are no longer safe.
