A Gen Zer’s heartfelt X carry mourns Charlie Kirk, who was crack and killed during a campus case at Utah. The 20-year-old man credited Kirk with life-changing mentorship. He recalled how he was inspired by the founder at Turning Point USA’s 2018 summit when he was just 14.
“Charlie Kirk changed my life,” Chandler Crump, whose X bio says he is a “20 Year Old Gen Z Commentator,” tweeted.
“I attended Turning Point USA's Young Black Leadership Summit in October 2018. I was 14 at the time but Charlie told me it didn't matter how young I was, I could fight alongside him in this movement,” he added.
Crump shared that since his meeting with Kirk, he has been attending every Turning Point Conference. “I grew up in this movement. I became the person I am today because of the inspiration from Charlie Kirk and his organization. I will never be the same without him, and this country will never be the same either. He was a husband, a father, a man of God, and a visionary for our nation,” he added. He concluded his post with two pictures of him with Charlie Kirk.
An individual wrote, “I remember you were the youngest kid there at the first summit.” Crump posted, “I just did the math and it's been 1/3rd of my life that I've known Charlie.”
Another posted, “They couldn't beat him in a debate. They couldn't beat his energy. They couldn't beat his connection to the youth. They couldn't beat his movement. Even with him gone, they will never beat his legacy. RIP Charlie Kirk.”
A third shared, “This is really a devastating moment for America.” A fourth wrote, “I am so sorry for your loss. May your wonderful memories bring you some comfort in this time of grief. Our nation lost a great leader today. Please carry on and support his legacy.”
