Moment Trump found out about Charlie Kirk's death REVEALED

Donald Trump revealed the moment he found out about Charlie Kirk’s murder earlier this week.

The President said he was meeting with architects about building his grand ballroom at the White House when he learned about the travesty.

Kirk was shot in the throat while speaking to college students at Utah Valley University, and later died from his injuries on Wednesday afternoon.

Trump told Fox & Friends this morning: ‘They came and said, “Charlie Kirk is dead.” I didn't know what they meant. I said, “What do you mean, dead?” “Charlie Kirk was shot.”’

‘They thought he was dead because it was so horrific,’ Trump added. ‘And I said, “Dead."'

‘I just told these people, “Get out. Just go.” This is the worst thing. This is so bad for our country...Sometimes out of really bad things, things can happen and be good,’ Trump continued.

He had a close relationship with Kirk and believed the Turning Point USA leader could have become president one day. 

On Thursday, Trump announced he will posthumously award the conservative college activist with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Trump concluded, ‘He is a great man and going to be more important because of what happened. God help his family.’

The FBI on Thursday night apprehended the main suspect in Kirk's assassination, identifying him as Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old Utah resident.

The Daily Mail reported that Robinson was taken into custody after confessing to killing Kirk to his father Matt.

His father contacted a local youth minister who also worked with the US Marshals Service. The minister advised the father to hold Robinson in place until authorities arrived.

Robinson was taken into custody around 11pm local time Thursday in southern Utah.

He faces charges of aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury and obstruction of justice, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by NBC News.

Law enforcement said Robinson will face the death penalty if convicted.
