One year after Charlie Kirk’s death, the organization is a joke — even on the right
When Charlie Kirk was alive, his wife Erika had a retrograde role that was easy to understand. She didn’t use the word, but she was a tradwife.
Her position at Turning Point USA, the organization her husband co-founded in 2012 to promote conservative politics on high school, college and university campuses across the country, was essentially to dote on him as her leader.
After they married in 2021, she became the evidence that Charlie Kirk was living up to his own beliefs about male leadership — and female submission — at home during the crucial period that he was rebranding himself as an evangelical leader from the secular libertarian he had been.
Because she’s a woman in an inherently misogynistic movement?
I was gunna say it was a lack of funeral pyrotechnics, but misogynists on the far right makes sense too.
Every MAGA woman discovers this at some point. And they always act surprised.
Act? Or are actually stupid enough to think that they’re the exception?
But they never thought the leopards would eat their face!
Actually my first thought.
