Tyler Robinson has been identified as a suspect in the murder of Charlie Kirk at the University of Utah Valley. Since the shooting, which resulted in the death of Turning Point USA founder, has sparked reactions from both political sides, Americans are wondering whether Robinson is a Democrat or a Republican. Several sources have reported that he registered to vote in 2021.

During an interview on September 12, 2025, Donald Trump announced that Robinson’s father turned him in to authorities.

«I think, with a high degree of certainty, we got him — we got him in custody», - Trump said, adding that «everyone did a great job, we worked with local police, the governor, everyone did a great job».

Details about Robinson’s alleged involvement in Kirk’s death are still unclear. Therefore, we have gathered everything we know about the suspect so far, including his voter registration and political history.

His own father turned him in to authorities.

Robinson is a 22-year-old resident of Utah. It is unclear whether Robinson was a college student, and other personal details about his life have not been disclosed at the time of publication.

No, Robinson is not a Republican. According to multiple sources, his 2021 voter registration did not indicate a party.

No, Robinson is not a Democrat. Since he did not specify a party when registering to vote, he is neither a Democrat nor a Republican. His voter registration was subsequently marked as «inactive», - according to CNN.

Robinson’s mother is Amber Jones Robinson, and his father is Matt Robinson, according to multiple sources. Amber is a graduate of the University of Utah, and Matt is a veteran of the Washington County Sheriff’s Department for decades.

According to the New York Post, people close to Robinson claimed that he was «full of hate» before Kirk’s shooting. Robinson also reportedly confessed to his father that he was the shooter, although Robinson himself has not publicly spoken. He is in custody, confirmed Trump.

«And someone very close to him said, 'hmm, that’s him,' and ultimately went to his father, went to the U.S. Marshal», - Trump said in his interview on Fox News, announcing that Robinson is the prime suspect in Kirk’s murder.
