The Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro took his book tour to HBO and Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday, where he and the eponymous host battled it out on whether it can be safely asserted that Charlie Kirk’s assassin was a leftist. While Maher insisted that it is simply too soon to say because the internet is always full of crazy rumors, Shapiro countered that what we know about the killer is not just the product of internet gossip.
Shapiro claimed that we know, “That this kid was of the political left. That is according to contemporaneous reporting from The Guardian, as well as Tablet Magazine today and magazines.”
Maher countered, “It is two days out. We don't know shit, Ben. We don’t know shit. They never do. The internet is undefeated at getting it wrong to begin with.”
