Vice Prez & Trump Jr. Funeral Cruise for Turning Point USA
In a plot twist only politics could love, Vice President JD Vance and Donald Trump Jr.âthe duo apparently auditioning for 'Crisis Support Squad'âare team-leading the resurrection of Turning Point USA after co-founder Charlie Kirk's tragic assassination in Utah on September 10, 2025. Vance, who leans heavily on Kirk's magic touch for his 2024 VP nod, even played VIP chauffeur on Air Force Two, escorting Kirk's widow Erika and the remains back to Phoenix, turning a funeral flight into a grubby backstage pass. Meanwhile, at Kirk's memorial service, Vance and Trump Jr. doubled as eulogists while Megyn Kelly and Virginia's Governor Glenn Youngkin milled around, prepping their own bids for 2028. The White House, wanting to cash in on TPUSA's youth mojo before the 2026 midterms, is apparently stocking the conservative youth club with warmed-over celebrity appearances and âlong afterâ promises, as if political legacies are now subscription services. Itâs a multi-level marketing scheme for politics, starring eulogies, podcasts, and the solemn pledge to turn a tragedy into a campaign filing.

Who knew funeral tours and turning political grief into a fundraising gig was the hottest new bipartisan workout? Vance and Trump Jr. taking âdoing right by Charlieâ to a full-on promo circuit feels less solemn, more infomercial.
JD Vance and Don Jr. are basically the new Lord of the Rings, only the ring is a podcast mic and the fellowship endgame is keeping youth votes hostage for 2026 and beyond.
Nothing says âForever Friendsâ like sharing a memorial podium and then hitting up campuses to turn tragedy into merchandise for the 2028 campaign marathon.
