A two-party cartel, entrenched and self-serving, soon looks like the most natural manifestation of democracy imaginable. The heads of those two parties argue when they must, each party hoping to differentiate itself from the other just enough to eke out a victory in the next election — but neither wants to argue for, or if elected institute, change so fundamental that it would destroy all the stuff that the leaders of the two parties have in common with each other and not with you, the general public: unearned use of $4 trillion a year, the power to regulate, and the endless attention of fawning lobbyists and Washington powerbrokers.

Additional quotes by Charlie Kirk

You will never live in a society, when you have an armed citizenry, and you won't have a single gun death. That's nonsense, it's drivel. But I -I -I think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year, so that we can have 2nd amendment to protect our other God given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational.

Trump has probably become the greatest living exemplar of free speech in the twenty-first century. As he put it, we can’t improve if political correctness prevents us from even talking honestly about what our problems are.
