The MAGA cult is so weird. No one cared about the lady that was trampled to death on Jan 6. But Kirk, he needs recognition.

Who it is is meaningless as it’s all about marketing. Kirk was an internet troll of no consequence before his death, but the name trended nicely. See [Horst Wessel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_Wessel) for the literal Nazi playbook move that they’re doing with Kirk.

You're overthinking it. Kirk's "Turning Point USA" brand had swing with young people and that is what they're capitalizing on.
I'm too lazy to look up the exact details of this, but here in FL Desantis signed some kind of law essentially telling schools they had to let people start their own Turning Point chapters (but obviously anything LGBT is illegal.)
.edit
I stopped being lazy.

Nah, the thing they're capitalizing on isthat he was murdered and can be treated as a martyr and saint.

That's kinda how everyone in politics is. A tiny sliver of dead people have useful circumstances to push an agenda. There's over 15k homicides a year, but people will cherry pick until one checks the right boxes.

Charlie was leaning as far right as one could, his entire life. I gotta say I was surprised to see how far left he was leaning at the end.
One of the last people on earth who deserves his name on anything, regardless of which way he was leaning.

She has acted as a public servant representing all the citizens of the State.
She bumped against the inherent corruption that's ingrained in our politics a few times, but navigated it as well as could be expected.

America's interstates and highways are the circulatory system of the nation. They serve a very similar purpose in capitalism as arteries and veins in the human body.
Is it just a little *ironic* to name a highway after the guy whose most famous for getting his carotids blown out?
Have they considered naming a dog park after him? Put a Charlie Kirk bronze statue in the middle for the dogs to sniff and admire.
