That wasn't a memorial service!

[imanamerican63]

It was a propaganda production and I bet Trump had a lot to do with it!

Having fireworks was bit much!!!

Having Erika Kirk stand there on stage crying that she forgives Robinson was a bit too much. Especially after every right wing MAGA calls for revenge!

The whole thing sounded like a farce and grifting production!

This wasn’t tamping down the hate, it only escalated the issue!

[Klarkashton]

1. It was an evangelical cluster fuck of the first kind.

Speaking in tongues, the whole bit. They want to let you know that Epstein never happened.
This is a travesty.

[vapor2]

7. Speaking in tongues? ? too funny but I didn't watch the propaganda show

[calimary]

21. Speaking with forked tongues.

[vapor2]

8. Epstein did happen

follow David Cay Johnson and his comments on Epstein.

[markodochartaigh]

12. David Cay Johnston is a national treasure.

I have followed him since his reporting on Bush.

[reACTIONary]

10. Any snake handling? I have a bet...

.... that they would be handling snakes.

[markodochartaigh]

14. " Any snake handling?"

Well, JD Vance was there if that's the kind of snake you mean.

[reACTIONary]

31. True! LOL

[Blue Full Moon]

2. It was the Erica Kirk, tRump,and Maybelline Queen's Spectacular Spectacular

[Deep State Witch]

3. You Know What This Could Have Used?

Leni Riefenstahl.

[Bavorskoami]

20. Well, they got their Horst Wessel

They seem to be making Kirk a martyr just as Horst Wessel was treated as a martyr in 1930.
.

[Ilsa]

4. Decent people would have let her grieve more quietly,

not putting on a show. I wonder if they took up an offering for the organization, the trumps, or the kirk family.

[womanofthehills]

11. Turning Points supposedly has 85 million

But big doners started backing off when Kirk did a complete I love Israel turn around and he started questioning Israel’s motives in Gaza. ( Videos on X - in one he asks if Israel had a stand down order on Oct 7) Donors were really pissed when he invited anti genocide speakers to his big Turning Points event in Tampa - Tucker, Dave Smith and MTG.

Tucker started a fund for Erica - he and a friend put in a million dollars.

Learned all this info from clips on X 🙃🙃🙃

22. She could have stayed home.

I suspect this was a marketing decision.

[MrWowWow]

5. One Big Klan Rally

Any crosses burned or were those saved for later?

[Maru Kitteh]

9. The production team is working that idea for the next martyr funeral

Maybe they’ll combine it with fireworks, flaming crosses that shoot into the sky and EXPLODE! Incendiary patriotic ordinance for JAYSUS!

Now that’s Uhmerica.

[B.See]

6. all that they planned it to be,

apparently

[Grim Chieftain]

13. Yeah, it almost out did the memorial service for the murdered schoolchildren

Oh, wait a minute...

[RussBLib]

15. Perhaps they'll take this show on the road

...lots of money to be made out there selling merch. Make it a weekly event somewhere in Amerika. The Murder of Charlie Tour.

[mitch96]

16. "It was a propaganda production"....never let a good crisis go to waste... Niccol Machiavelli...nt

[Javaman]

17. Their updated version of a

Bund rally

Chuck was just their excuse and reason for what comes next

And they will now justify everything that does come next on their useful martyr

[karynnj]

18. Remember the outrage when some people were political at the Wellstone memorial?

Even though in that case it was people who knew him telling stories about things he did.

[Gimpyknee]

19. What memorial service?

[Randomthought]

23. I took theater as an elective in college and I have seen a lot of over emoting

Erika Kirk's scenery chewing was the worst overacting I have ever seen ever seen..
I know I'm being tacky considering that she is a widow but sh was beyond the pale of human decency5.

[Randomthought]

24. You are so correct

It was not a memorial service but a RW hate fest and Erika' s overacting of the grieving widow was just nasty. Her saying she was Kirk's advisor!!? Honey he was a major misogynist. I N HER DREAMS WAS SHE HIS ADVISOR.

[usonian]

25. Fireworks? How cheapskate.

Unfounded rumor has it that he wanted something a bit better.

[Tanuki]

26. Rick Wilson astutely summed up Erika days ago:

Link to tweet

[Randomthought]

27. LOL

[walkingman]

28. These people absolutely make me want to throw up.

The Bible Belt is controlled by these folks. It is fucking real.

[Irish_Dem]

29. Just when I think the US cannot humiliate and disgrace itself any further.

It goes further down the ugly spiral it is in.

[Gum Logger]

32. It was a kabuki dance

The Repukes gain from being kinetic

[Irish_Dem]

33. yes they get the Nobel Prize for Kabuki Theater.

Amazing job.

[Emile]

30. More in common with the 1934 Nuremberg Rally.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

34. The only family member to speak at this event was the widow

This was really a MAGA grifting session and not a memorial
