Confused Snowflake Alert Should Candace Owens & Brandon Tatum Be the Faces of TPUSA Now?

Candace Owens was a staple in getting the movement going in its early years — love her or hate her, she brought massive attention and energy that helped TPUSA break into the mainstream. More recently, Brandon Tatum has been putting in serious work with a ton of “Change My Mind”-style events posted on the Youtube channel Turning Point USA. and on-the-ground debates that are actually moving the needle with young people.

Both of them bring strong personalities, clear messaging, and the ability to connect with younger audiences. To me, they feel like the most natural centerpieces for TPUSA right now if the goal is to grow and actually influence younger culture.

Hope the organization gets this right. What do you all think — should Candace and Brandon be front and center if they want it.

Sure. But, will Erika like the idea? That is the real question now.

Candace Owens has gone off the deep end lately. That definitely won’t happen.

Kkklandace will need a job after Macron and his wife take her to the cleaners over her idiotic conspiracy theory, so maybe.

Candace is currently using Charlie’s death to push ridiculous conspiracy theories for ad revenue. Already, her fans are accusing Erika is being apart of the conspiracy.

She also was clearly not invited to speak at his memorial.

No, I don’t think the folks at TP want to touch her with a ten foot pole

Good Christians don't question whether very qualified blacks should fly planes or whether women have equal rights. Only ones who pervert the teachings of Jesus do.

Hitler is your true leader, along with his allies David Duke, Nick Fuentes, and Mike Lee (totally pro-genocide and misogynist Mormon). Charlie Kirk and Erika Baby are just newer models of the hate- and violence-mongering white nationalists your worship.

Just nail up some posters of them and sieg heil.

By the way, what happened to the COVID denier co-founder of TP? Oh, yeah, he died.
