Here's what you missed at Turning Point's chaotic convention

PHOENIX (AP) — When Turning Point USA's annual AmericaFest convention reached its halfway point, Erika Kirk tried to put a smiling face on things.

“Say what you want about AmFest, but it’s definitely not boring,” said Kirk, who has led the influential conservative organization since her husband Charlie was assassinated in September. “Feels like a Thanksgiving dinner where your family’s hashing out the family business.”

That's one way to put it.

Some of the biggest names in conservative media took turns torching each other on the main stage, spending more time targeting right-wing rivals than their left-wing opponents.

she can serve as JD Vance's new sidepiece then tradwife in the run up to the next election. Seen and mostly not heard, unless Fox picks her up. She'll need a little more Mar a Lago Face prior to all of that though.
