**Eric Trump Calls His Father Live on Stage at Turning Point USA Event**
During a Turning Point USA event held on the campus of Auburn University in Alabama, Eric Trump unexpectedly called his father, former President Donald Trump, live on stage. The event drew a packed arena of enthusiastic supporters.
As Eric held his phone up to a microphone, Donald Trump was heard saying on the call, “We love Charlie,” and, “He’s looking down on us right now.” The crowd responded with raucous applause. Eric, co-hosting the event with his wife Lara Trump, asked the audience, “By the way, should we see what he is doing right now? Should we try calling him? Hello? Hello?”
Eric Trump expressed admiration for his father’s tone, saying, “So we have the most beautiful crowd of people, thousands and thousands at Auburn University. They are incredibly enthusiastic, they absolutely adore this country, they love God, and they adore you.”
In response, Donald Trump said, “I just want to pay my respects to Charlie and Erika. These are two incredible people. I’ve spoken to Erika often; she is a spectacular person, and she is going to start where Charlie left off. We should never allow this to happen.”
He also referenced the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk on September 10 at Utah Valley University, calling him “one of the greatest people we have ever known” who was “so responsible for our win.” The President added, “We love Charlie, he’s looking down on us right now, all of us.”
Turning to Erika Kirk, Donald Trump said, “Erika, you are there somewhere, and you just take care of yourself. We are with you all the way, and we support the great people that my son and Lara are speaking to. I love you all.”
He concluded with a patriotic note, stating, “As President of the United States, I love you all, and our country is doing great.”
Turning Point USA’s website mentions that each stop on the “This is the Turning Point” tour “is a chance to honor Charlie’s mission and keep the fight alive.”
