Turning Point USA Prepares to Back J.D. Vance for 2028, Erika Kirk Says

Erika Kirk casts the plan as preliminary, stressing a current focus on the 2026 midterms.

Overview

  • Kirk told the Megyn Kelly Show that efforts are “in the works” for Turning Point to support Vance if he seeks the presidency.
  • She assumed leadership after Charlie Kirk’s September assassination and said he was intentional about backing Vance for 2028.
  • Vance has said he will concentrate on winning the midterms and discuss any 2028 decision with the president afterward.
  • Secretary of State Marco Rubio has publicly said Vance would be a strong nominee if he runs, and the president has praised a potential Vance–Rubio ticket.
  • Turning Point USA’s signal carries weight inside MAGA circles as the group mobilizes younger conservatives under new leadership.
