Note, a lot of people got the Laura Loomer tweet screen cap from me. I just want to clarify that it continued. Here's the whole thing.
![I don’t ever want to hear @charliekirk11 claim he is pro-Trump ever again. After this weekend, I’d say he has revealed himself as political opportunist and I have had a front row seat to witness the mental gymnastics these last 10 years.
Lately, Charlie has decided to behave like a charlatan, claiming to be pro-Trump one day while he stabs Trump in the back the next.
TPUSA was only able to thrive thanks to the generosity of President Trump.
On the one year anniversary of the assassination attempt on Trump’s life, Charlie hosted @ComicDaveSmith at @TPUSA’s SAS conference where Dave Smith was able to speak to a bunch of conservative youth at an organization that claims to be Pro-Trump.
3 weeks ago, Dave Smith called for President Trump to be IMPEACHED and REMOVED from office over his decision to blow up Iran’s nuclear facilities.
Charlie played both sides of the Iran issue on his show as we all saw, because he wants to play to both sides of the aisle.
The honorable thing to do is to have a position and actually defend it to the death instead of flip flopping.
Smith said all of MAGA “should turn on Trump” and abandon him. He said this 3 weeks ago.
See the clip below. 👇🏻
TPUSA is definitely not pro-Trump. If they were, they certainly aren’t anymore.
Out of all of the incredible pro-Trump voices out there who support the President, Charlie decided to host Dave Smith?
It really is shameful. And I am honestly just disgusted by the nonstop flip flopping on the right.

Thank you very much @charliekirk11 for having me at the @TPUSA event today. It was a fantastic event and it’s inspiring to see so many young people who are passionate about the future of our country.

If there's no Covid testing to track Covid, there's no Covid.
The BLS did exactly what it's supposed to do: provide accurate, nonpartisan data. When the numbers showed Trump's "economic boom" was actually a bust (33k jobs vs claimed 291k), he fired the messenger. After all, when it rains too much, true leaders fire the meteorologists.

How permanent is the harm done byTrump’s savage rampage of destruction?
For the many who have died because of his folly, it is already permanent.
For the rest of us and those still unborn, it will surely long-lasting.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc.
