Because he was the husband, father??
Because of his adherence to Faith?
Because he was such a swell guy?
lol... NO. Those crocodile tears are all bullshit.
The real answer is... Kirk had 6 million followers on X alone, they're on 850 campuses
They're actively registering and getting people to vote...
One could easily credit CK with the polling numbers showing a reversal politically of Gen Z...
One could even make an argument that CK put Trump in the White House.
THAT is why the right is having a meltdown. They just lost their top political operative.
