We need a poll: Ben Shapiro. Nick Fuentes. Who should take over TPUSA?




Gen alpha a Z, Nick 100% to 0%

Gen X: 50/50

Boomers: 80% Ben

Ben Shapiro is garbage. I didn't support Daily Wire because of him.


Yeah, when they are shooting us in the neck I think it’s asinine to treat Ben Shapiro as the enemy. But you do you. Also, I don’t think this is true.

You can believe whatever you want to believe. Ben Shapiro only cares for America for what America can do for Israel. His words.

Exactly, but there’s a shite load of fake and flat out lies being spewed. That’s why I included the video in Spanish to navigate the sewage out there.

I don’t dislike Ben but just no.

I mean, for one, its primary mission is to preach the Gospel.

How’s that going to work with an Orthodox Jew?

Nick would be a better leader for TP USA but he’s carving his own path:

I just listened to the first 20 minutes of his show on Charlie's assassination. It's really good. I can't do two hours, it's too much Jesus talk, but Nick is honing his craft.

IF true, it will be interesting to watch. Ben Shapiro is such a different individual: he's older, he has more formal education, he has much more work experience and.....he's an orthodox Jew. That will add yet another bull's eye on his back, and more radical groups to the list of murderous lunatics.

God bless him if he decides to go that way, but what a decision to make!

Isn't Turning Point a sort a conservative organization with a strong Christian focus? Don't see Shapiro leading that organization given he is Orthodox Jewish.

If you want to tank it.

I don't think Ben would reach the younger college kids, but he'd do a better job than Nick.

Can you imagine Nick representing TP USA? I mean, you might. You're an idiot. But you'd have lines of students asking Nick why he was laughing and giddy while asking about the logistics of baking 6 million cookies in a specific amount of time.

I'm pretty flexible. The critique is whatever. I think it's a bit flat-Earther-ish (not that bad, but not far off). But whatever.

Dude was giddy. Laughing. It was sick.

If he does, it is a part of God’s plan and I will support it even if I don’t understand it

People forget that Ben Shapiro mentored Charlie Kirk from the time Charlie was 18 years old.

People also forget that Shapiro was part of the first wave of conservative voices going to college campuses...without Ben Shapiro there might not have been a Steven Crowder or Michale Knowles or Dinesh D'souza or Charlie Kirk.

In fact, Shapiro is really the one who popularized the format.

Do I think he's the right fit to take over TPUSA?

Probably not. For a few reasons.

1. Because of the Christian foundation of the organization. He's simply not a Christian. That's not a slight on him, I'm not a Joo-conspiracist, but it is what it is.

2. He's too old to connect with college kids like Kirk did. Frankly, he was too old in spirit to connect with college kids when he was probably in sixth grade. He's one of those old soul types that was born an old man. He likely wasn't popular with his peers even when he was in college.

3. He's not as affable as Kirk. He's honestly a better debater...he might be the best debater the right has. I think he's as decent a person as Kirk. He's a fury of activity and creativity like Kirk. But he's just not as appealing to the average member of the target audience. Kirk had the everyman, universal appeal of pepperoni pizza and beer and Shapiro has the appeal of foie gras and a complex, peaty, single malt Scotch. An acquired taste only for refined palettes.

It's just not the right fit.

No thanks. Shapiro already has his own thing. We need to find new talent that are Christian.

Smart guy, but nowhere near the level of Karisma, and wittiness Kirk possessed. I truly believe Kirk could heave been president one day . He was that talented and smart.

Shapiro tells a story that the day he met Kirk (when Kirk was only 18) he told a friend, "That guy is going to be the chairman of the RNC one day."

And then he said, "But I way underestimated his potential."
