Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus. I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

All right, Don, welcome to Phoenix, man. Good to be here. Good to be back. So we got quite a crowd. Our members-only crew is growing.
I mean, your members-only crew is larger than, like, the entire membership of Turning Point the first time. That's right. This would have been a big turnout back in, like, 16 for...
Oh, yeah. The first event you spoke at was our Winter in West Palm Beach event in Palm Beach. This was like the combined attendance of that entire event.
And by the way, by political standards, that was huge, so to speak, with a capital Y. But it's grown a lot.
It has. So, Don, there's so much to kind of walk through. Let's go back to what you called day one, what we called the new day one, January 7th, 2021. It looked as if The Trump movement was over. We were put in exile. You never gave up. We never gave up. And now here we are today where everyone acts as if it was an obvious foregone conclusion that we're going to take back the White House. Take us back in time. Walk us through the most amazing political comeback in American history.
Yeah, no, it was incredible. I mean, everyone was like, well, I was there in, you know, 16 and 15 and whatever. It was like, well, where were you in January 7th? Because there's multiple day ones. If you were at both of those places, that's pretty great. And that's really the applicant pool of who we're looking at right now. I mean, the amount of people who... you know, jumped ship on January 7th. And, you know, Trump was Trump never had a chance on, you know, back in 15, zero chance of winning a primary, zero chance of beating Hillary Clinton. You know, he was definitely getting impeached twice. He was he just kept coming back, watching all of these people write you off so many times. It's actually great motivation.
But I think that's what's so much more effective about this administration, this cabinet, the people that are involved. We just know. You know, in 16, we didn't know anything. We didn't know anything. The first night my father spent in Washington, D.C. was the night he moved into the White House. We were trusting, you know, Chris, Crispy, Cream, Christy. You know, that was our closest person that may have known something about Washington. Maybe he did. Maybe it was, you know, he knew something bad. And so it's just so different, which gives me so much hope. It's why you see people trying so desperately now. But it's not working anymore. Once you got a hold of X and, you know, watching the left right now. Oh, my God, it's a right-wing platform.
No, it's 50-50. You're just used to having an entire echo chamber to yourselves. You're not used to having to argue. You're not used to having to actually formulate an opinion because whatever you said was just the gospel. As long as you repeat the narrative, you are rewarded with followers and likes. It's just so different now. The people are involved.
