Donald Trump pulled Erika Kirk in for an awkward kiss in the Oval Office at the White House on Monday, November 10 — and people online are thoroughly grossed out.
Charlie Kirk‘s widow attended the swearing-in ceremony of family friend Sergio Gor as the Trump administration’s new ambassador to India.
Erika — who took over as CEO of the late right-wing activist’s organization, Turning Point USA, following his September assassination — wrapped her arm around the president as he planted a smooch on her cheek.
The mom-of-two, 36, could be seen puckering her lips to the air as she clasped Donald’s hand.
Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, the POTUS described Erika as “a very special lady who I unfortunately have seen a lot of on television recently, for the wrong reasons.”
He added, “Who Charlie said is the greatest of anybody he ever knew — best friends and best everything.”
People Are Disgusted by Donald Trump and Erika Kirk’s Oval Office Kiss
One person on X dubbed him “predator-in-chief,” adding that Erika was only “there for his daily creep fix” and called Donald’s move to kiss her “peak sleaze energy.”
Another user wrote, “Ewwww, so gross!”
A third chimed in, using emojis to express their feelings about the exchange. “🤢🤢🤢🤮,” they posted.
A fourth called the president a “pervert.”
Others took aim at Erika for being there in the first place.
Someone questioned, “Where are this woman’s children? Why isn’t she with them? They’ve been through h— and maybe a remaining parent could help them adjust to the trauma.”
Another said, “Boy, she got over her mourning period FAST!”
A third referenced the warm embrace she gave J.D. Vance recently, which has had people side-eyeing her, as it seemed a little too intimate
They wrote, “Is she doing him [and] Vance?”
