    Charlie Kirk built a massive following from nothing and made a genuine impact on elections

    You do not need to be smart to be charismatic. Equating the 2 is wrong to begin with.

      It takes more than charisma to build what he built.

      And recognizing the political intelligence of a MAGA politician is not the same as pivoting towards MAGA. You should be able to learn from them.

        It takes no more than average intelligence. I know it’s not the same, I’m saying that he’s still not smart.

          You’re entitled to your opinion. I think if this were true then there’d be millions of Charlie Kirk’s.

            Literally no. It still takes a lot of dedication and charisma. Not to mention right place right time
