Right now, though, there isn't a lot of strong policies he can lean on and elevate.

There isn't a winning message out of the White House at the moment, which makes it harder for him to sell on the campaign trail.

That's why the Turning Point crowd bodes so well for him.

They are people who will support Trump no matter what.

And he wants these loyalist crowds to help him do the heavy lifting of persuasion for voters who are on the fence, especially in these swing states.

Turning Point used to have a really strong influence on young conservative voters.

That was a voting bloc both parties struggled with, but Turning Point seemed to have figured out the secret sauce.

But ever since, like you said, the founder Charlie Kirk died, the organization hasn't had the same reach with young Republicans as it once did.

That didn't seem to be a problem for Trump on stage, though.

This is what he pointed out.

Trump told the crowd that it's on Republicans to keep Kirk's legacy alive by encouraging young people in swing states to vote red.

But we won't know if Trump's messaging is successful until November.

Thank you.

Trump says the U.S.

has begun targeting Iran's drone manufacturing facilities.

Trump also says the U.S.

is attacking the facilities where Iranian missiles are made and delivered.

But he says some of the biggest targets, like electricity production, remain.

Oil prices surged after the war prompted the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, effectively choking off a key route.

Trump had this warning for Iran if they try to stop the global oil supply chain.
