Well, poor attendance is a different kind of threat as the grief pyrotechnic show isn’t going to pay for itself. You can’t grift without a mark.

She didn’t want anyone asking her questions lol

The number of idiots that bought into this “there is a threat” narrative is hilarious. If there was a threat, the sitting VP wouldn’t be in attendance. She skipped because of poor ticket sales.
This country is being dragged into the shitter by these stupid hicks.

A threat to the bottom line maybe

The low crowds were a threat to her ego 😂

The threat of no one showing up!

Oh no. So it was a lover’s quarrel afterall.

Such a stupid excuse. The sitting veep was going to be there. If there were credible threats, the secret service would have been in a tizzy.
She bailed because there were more empty seats than filled ones. Seems TPUSA’s post death boom is just about over.
Never expected her to be able to fill his shoes, given his beliefs about women’s proper place being in the home and just how many right wing grifters are trying to win over Kirk’s former audience.
Doesn’t help that Trump has only made things worse for young people, and the rest of us, too.

Now she is not expected to appear at any of their upcoming rallies either. No crowds really got her rattled

I loved the logic of she can’t go because of a death threat so let’s send the Vice President anyway. Just the second in line to the Presidency, that’s fine.
Dry-Two-4246 on
Well…yeah.
From what I can see the options were
1.”there was a security threat but we let the vice president speak anyway”
or
2. “Erika Kirk is a liar”

So wait, she just lied?

Bizarre lady! If there were even the slightest threat to anyone, Vance would not have been there. Is Kirk trying to say that she is more important than the Vice President, and why do I have a sneaking suspicion that Kirk would rather enjoy showing up if a “threat” meant even a hint of more headlines, screen and air time?

She wanted to avoid the humiliation of an empty stadium!

Will TPUSA survive even one year beyond CK’s death? It doesn’t look like it. It’s Erika’s grift and she isn’t going to willingly step aside. The novelty of a freshly grieving widow has run its course, and in the few months she’s been ‘in charge’, she has not established herself as insightful, nor particularly strategic.
TPUSA without CK, needs a new strategy for its survival. It’s not enough to use the old one and simply cross out all of the elements that were dependent on CK’s active presence. Erika really doesn’t have the chops to lead them out of their little wilderness.

If there was a legit known threat the ss would have never let Vance speak there.

Why is the secret service involved with her is my question.

If there was an actual threat the secret service would have stopped Vance from going

Sorry Ericka, but I think the well is running dry on Mourn-a-palooza 2026. You might have to start finding a new act.

>Kirk is not expected to appear at any of the later rallies.
So it’s all clear, but she still isn’t going because she is afraid? Fine. Except…..
If Vance attended, theres absolutely no way there was any credible threat, unless his presence was the threat (people have a tendency to die shortly after interacting with him)

If she is facing death threats, why is she speaking at a [high school next week](https://www.kjzz.org/education/2026-04-15/turning-points-erika-kirk-scheduled-to-speak-at-pinnacle-high-school-club-meeting) ? Why would she bring danger around children but not adults? Maybe it’s because speaking at a high school is going to get her tons of media attention, whereas peaking in front of a couple of hundred people after a couch fucker? Not so much..
