Charlie Kirk: “As President Donald Trump is upset on Truth Social, I do not think he's attacking all of you in the rank-and-file. Instead, President Donald Trump is venting off some anger right now.”

CHARLIE KIRK (HOST): And I'm going to defend the president here on one key thing. He does have a right to be a little bit skeptical and paranoid. And I'm gonna try to translate part of the Truth Social as to what I think would be the best way to resonate with you.
After all of the different ways they've tried to take out President Trump, he's saying, guys, they could have put a stink bomb in the quote, unquote files that will make me look bad. Honestly, that paranoia is not totally unfounded.
On the other side, this is what I'm telling the president both privately and publicly is that the base cares about this — not to get you. The base cares about this not to try to take you out. The base cares about this because they have your back. The base cares about this because they have your best interests at heart. The base cares about this because we are defending you.
And it's not so much about that we care about the person of Jeffrey Epstein. We do care about the victims, but it's not so much that the person of Jeffrey Epstein is a hyper-focus. Instead, it is not the person of Jeffrey Epstein — which the president, he's communicating here as if we are obsessed with the creep, the pervert, and the evil demonic satanic activity of Jeffrey Epstein. No. We are actually interested in who was he an agent of. Were the same people that were behind Butler, Pennsylvania, the same people that were behind the Russia hoax, were they also the ones that were pulling the strings of Jeffrey Epstein? The same people that were around COVID? Mr. President, the same people that were behind the stolen election of 2020 that you talk about so frequently. We think these are the same actors.
...
And so as President Donald Trump is upset on Truth Social, I do not think he's attacking all of you in the rank-and-file. Instead, President Donald Trump is venting off some anger right now because he thinks that this is being used to derail his presidency. He thinks that this is being used to derail all of his success.
When that's actually — when the grassroots would say, it's not actually a mainstream media driven narrative. The mainstream media has actually been very disinterested in this. This is a we've got your six. We have your back. We're not trying to take you out. The grassroots is not trying to make you look bad. We want to try and make sure the bad people that have done such terrible things to you can finally be held accountable.
