I’ve been thinking about this for a minute. Was Charlie Kirk unironically the guy holding the Republican Party together. I feel like once he died everything started going downhill for them. Would the Iran war happen if Kirk were here to talk to Trump?

Last thing I said kind of sounds stupid but I don’t know genuinely. There’s no one on the right wing who has any reasonable take on Israel. There’s the Fuentes tent and the Huckabee tent. I think Kirk could’ve had his own.

I think he wasn’t necessarily the glue but everyone had different reactions to it and that made a big divide

Realistically I think the Iran war still would’ve happened and Charlie would’ve been tweeting some shit like “I’m confused by this decision but I believe in God and President Trump’s plan for us and have my full faith that our military will destroy those Muslim terrorists”

War would have still happened. Trump is his own element and he gets to drive the party wherever he wants rn even if that is against its principles. It has very unfortunately lead to Fuentes gaining audience. The racial right is quite the opposite to the religious right and the divide is becoming more obvious

I don’t think so I think Charlie Kirk dying was a big hit to their movement (not that it makes it ok). People like Nick Fuentes and Tucker were already moving from Trump if my memory is correct. I just think people are starting to realize that Trump is gonna die and maga train is ending.

Idk I think he unironically was a massively uniting factor within the party. I think he also had a pretty good idea of what the base was feeling and we know he talked to trump quite often. I feel like trump is now completely detached from the base now.

And you cannot tell me that Trump actually saw Charlie Kirk as a friend. He 100% saw him as just a good political operative for him.
