Elon Musk and former U.S. President Donald Trump were seen having a warm exchange during the memorial service for Charlie Kirk, the late founder of Turning Point USA. Thousands gathered at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, to honor Kirk’s legacy and his impact on young Americans through his nonprofit organization. The event brought together political leaders, friends, and supporters from across the country.

Despite past disagreements, Musk and Trump were photographed sitting together and talking throughout the memorial. Later, Musk shared a photo of their interaction on his social platform X, captioning it simply, “For Charlie,” signaling that the moment was about paying tribute rather than politics. Trump later told reporters that he appreciated Musk coming over to speak with him and described the exchange as respectful and positive.

The reunion comes after a period of public tension between the two figures, with differences over policy and other issues earlier in the year. Their meeting at the memorial appeared to mark a step toward reconciliation, showing that they could set aside past disputes to honor Kirk and support his family.

Following the service, Musk also reposted a message from Erika Kirk, Charlie’s widow, who spoke about forgiveness and healing. The memorial ultimately became not just a tribute to Charlie Kirk’s life but also a moment of unity, bringing together individuals who had previously been at odds.
