TO BE FAIR - this does not necessarily mean he himself was maga. Just a bit more likely, and if he isn't then he was probably in a pretty repressive place

Make sense why when Trump was asked today, "How you holding up?" He was like, "Have you seen my new ballroom to the White House?"

They giving Charlie Kirk the fucking Herman Cain treatment. Going to forget him like his name was Phil Valentine. Going to hang his family out to dry like a former mayor of New York City.

And then you had that fucking Governor of Utah saying:

For 33 hours I was praying that if this had to happen here, it wouldn't be one of us.

Just FUCKING HELL. No chill, all racism. Damn. They going to have to forget about Charlie Kirk like they did all those people who died from COVID, like all those farmers who going bankrupt because of trade wars, like all those people who are like "He ain't hurting the right people."

I ain't in the camp celebrating Kirk's death. But the way Republicans are jumping ship from Charlie's death is fucking hilarious. So now that we all know the mother fucker ain't getting any deader, how about them fucking Epstein Files? How about all them Republican fuckers who voted to protect a pedo mother fucker?

He comes from a deeply conservative, deeply religious community in Utah. I mean people are complicated and he could have some left of center sentiments but growing up in a family of hunters in a deeply religious conservative red area probably had more influence on him.
