Charlie Kirk’s widow Erika Kirk made an appearance on Fox’s The Story with Martha MacCallum this Thursday, and was asked by guest host Trace Gallagher about Turning Point USA’s joke of an alternative to the Super Bowl halftime show, and Kirk did her best to try to paint it as some wholesome alternative to Bad Bunny, who will be performing at the actual Super Bowl this year, despite the fact that Kid Rock is one of the headliners.
GALLAGHER: I want to talk about something uplifting that the halftime, the alternative halftime show for the Super Bowl, Erica, you know, Kid Rock, you’re talking about this.
I thought I was kind of reading this and thought, this is brilliant. After watching the Grammys and after watching, you know there is an appetite for this. I mean, it’s a brilliant move. I’m just wondering what you hope comes out. What’s the message you’re trying to convey?
KIRK: It’s powerful, because what Charlie always loved and knew is that he wanted to be in the forefront of the culture war. He would be fist bumping to this. He’d be so stoked. And what better way to honor him than just to get in the middle of this and be able to offer an alternative to families.
