When Charlie Kirk was killed by an assassin this fall, Republican leaders credited the organization he founded for enabling President Trump’s return to power.
Now that organization is mobilizing behind JD Vance.
Uninterested in a competitive Republican primary in 2028, Turning Point USA plans to deploy representatives across Iowa’s 99 counties in the coming months to build the campaign infrastructure it believes could deliver Vance, a Midwesterner from nearby Ohio, a decisive victory, potentially short-circuiting a fractious GOP race, insiders said.



Not really. What we had was one party imploding and taking a couple of different shapes before the new political balance was established. Absent self-immolation due to a division over slavery, there has never been a viable third party.
