Candace Owens Feels Erika Kirk's Appointment as CEO of Turning Point USA Was a 'Mistake'
Erika Kirk 'should have never become the CEO and chairman' of Turning Point USA 'overnight,' Candace Owens declared.
In the wake of Charlie dying, Erika took on the role of being in charge of his organization, Turning Point USA.
While many of his followers seemed supportive of this move, Charlie's friend, conservative podcaster Candace Owens, was not.
"She should have never become the CEO and chairman overnight," Owens declared, calling Erika's appointment as CEO of Turning Point a "mistake." "Because now when people have questions, you gotta answer them. Now you're not just a grieving widow who there has to be respectability for and space and allowing her to be a mother.
"You very quickly decided that you were equipped to be Charlie," she continued. "Well, guess what? That’s gonna be a trial by fire. Charlie had to go through it. It’s painful. The public’s gonna go through every layer of your life. And so it’s people go, ‘it’s not fair.'"

Candace Owens said an 'interim CEO' should have been put in place at Turning Point USA.
Owens also put her two cents into people "feeling" like it's "not fair" to ask Erika questions due to the fact that she lost her husband.
"They should have put in place an interim CEO," she shared "Like that’s what any company would do. You would say for a couple of months, 'We have to figure things out. The COO's gonna become the CEO and give everybody time to grieve and adjust to the fact this is a new company, and we’ve got to figure things out without the head of the company.
"I think they made a managerial error. All is fair, and love in war is what I mean," she added. "If you're gonna be in that position, everyone goes through it… I’m going through it every day. That’s the downside of fame. They’re gonna go through every area of your life. It’s not fair, but it’s fair. Everyone does it. It’s just a part of being in the public eye."
