Do yourself a favor and watch some of his debates on YouTube.

Me too, I’m 53. My kids in their teens and 20s followed him a good bit too.

Also, where are you watching your news?

All I watch is YouTube and listen to podcasts.

Is this the guy who there's a lot of memes of him sitting at a table drinking from a mug and he says one sentence that makes a lot of sense and the poster on the table says "change my mind" ??
That's Stephen Crowder. I would assume an older crowd follows him than follows Charlie Kirk.

I am 57 and watched him every day for years. He was the Rush Limbaugh of this generation.

In my 40s and followed him for several years. Not sure how one could participate in this forum and not know Charlie Kirk.

I watched a lot of his video's lately. He was a treasure and a Truth teller. Tell the Truth and people will hate you! 70 here

My 9th grader knows him, and my senior has been involved in his groups.

He was spreading the conservative message to our youth

My 23 and 21 year old boys know who he is. Hard to believe a conservative, especially college age kids, don’t know what Turning Point USA is.

in our 50s

The ideal young leader for the US and in the future and that is why the evil took him.

It went beyond 40. I'm 64 and followed him as do a lot of my Boomer cohorts. My 80 year old cousin was a big fan of Charlie's.

I didn’t follow him but I watched and enjoyed a lot of his videos. Thought he was a great guy and liked the way he handled his adversaries. Im 77.

I did not follow him, per se, but I did watch his videos when they came up on my Facebook page.

My 28 y/o nephew, 29 y/o daughter, and 32 y/o son all said they sheaded a tear today. My nephew called me to discuss the entire situation today. So, there is an age group of young conservatives that reached adulthood with Charlie Kirk.

Yep. Im 54. Subscribed on YouTube to Turning Point and Charlie Kirk. I’ll be honest…I am heartbroken. He had gentle, intelligent arguments that always succeeded because the left has no facts. He knew that. He helped make it ok to be a conservative on campuses again.

The person who did this was backed and funded by the left. We need to know the truth. The left knows the value of changing minds of the youth. And they have been losing lately.

I had three college kids text me about it today. So probs a lot of them.

My wife is a huge fan, as well. And we’re Gen Xers.

Key demographic, but there are a great deal of people older than that who have become followers.

I’m a little older than you and I follow him on social media. Both of my kids texted me when they heard, they are 25 and 30
