The pro-MAGA hosts of Real America’s Voice lashed out after a drag queen dressed up as Turning Point USA leader Erika Kirk.
“A mockery of a conservative icon,” co-host Emily Finn complained on Tuesday. “A firestorm is erupting online as a drag performer goes viral, mocking Erika Kirk, widow of the late conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.”
“The performer known as Erika Kwerk has posted videos on TikTok dressing up, lip syncing, and dancing to clips of Kirk’s speeches, raking in millions of views and even fundraising for the American Civil Liberties Union,” she continued. “Outrage has boiled over with conservatives calling it a heartless exploitation of grief and a new low in the culture wars.”
“Critics say this isn’t just satire, it’s a personal attack. And once again, the left celebrates mockery of conservative figures.”
Co-host David Brody called the performance “pure evil.”
“Not surprising that the left and pure evil go in the same sentence. Leave this poor woman alone. Enough already,” he gasped.
“I just think that’s so gross,” co-host Gina Loudon agreed. “It so flies in the face of her. I mean, and you know, I know people who are friends of mine who will go to like these, you know, these shows and things featuring these, like in Vegas and things, it has always rubbed me and bristled me the wrong way.”
“God made woman and man, and you were just not — I just don’t — I don’t understand it. I will never understand it. I can’t comment without being just blithering. So I will just shut up.”
Co-host Terrence Bates argued that the performance was “tasteless.”
“I think it’s tasteless, particularly, as you said earlier, she’s basically making fun, poking at a grieving widow,” Bates said. “And because it’s so tasteless, not only is it not my cup of tea, but it’s not something that I’m going to give oxygen to.”
“These are men!” Brody exclaimed. “These are — these are men to leftists, dressed up as women. That’s called a transvestite in 1974! You can’t say that word today!”
“I mean, somebody just capitalizing on a moment in history is just disgusting,” Loudon concluded.
