CNN contributor Montel Williams has reached a new low, describing Charlie Kirk’s adult alleged assassin as a “love-torn child.”
Williams was attempting to humanize and defend the accused murderer, painting him as a sympathetic character, to deflect from the fact that he was motivated by left-wing extremism.

The heinous and reprehensible comments were made during a discussion on Tuesday’s CNN NewsNight.
“There are people who are trying to pigeonhole this as a leftist thing and a right thing and what we’re really talking about,” Williams began. “Hear me, because I’m going to throw you when I say this, we’re talking about a love-torn child, a kid.”
Tyler Robinson, the accused assassin, is 22 years old.

Williams didn’t stop there, “I think he also — I don’t believe he was motivated politically. I think this was motivated emotionally. I think this was a emotionally stunted person who literally, when I say it this way, just hear me, tried to defend his significant other, not trying to defend some ideology.”
The shameless leftist added that his father’s potential disapproval of the relationship may have been a contributing factor.

This was a targeted attack rooted in leftist hatred, not some Romeo and Juliet fairy tale. The American people deserve better political commentators than these monstrous liars.
