Former President Donald Trump has confirmed he'll be a speaker at an upcoming summer event hosted by Turning Point Action.
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk on Monday wrote that Trump would headline "The People's Convention" set to take place June 14-16 in Detroit.
"Turning Point Action is thrilled to announce PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP as our confirmed headline speaker at THE PEOPLE'S CONVENTION 2024," Kirk posted on X, calling the planned event "the summer convention where everyone is invited."
"There is no better time than now to register for the biggest event of the summer!" he added.
Reaction — and support — came swiftly.
"Heck yeah! Registering people to vote is paramount," one user wrote, "and Trump's presence will only help with that endeavor. We need a landslide victory in November. Can't leave anything to chance."
Another supporter called it "awesome news."
The event was described as "featuring the most prominent names in the movement, a straw poll, thousands of attendees from all 50 states, dozens of sponsoring organizations, and, preceding the RNC by a month," according to Turning Point Action's website. "The People's Convention will serve as the natural focal point of the national conservative political movement ahead of the 2024 election.
"Attendees will leave equipped with the tools, knowledge, and network to lead their communities and win in November!"
Both Trump and Kirk have been confirmed as speakers, The Post Millennial reported, with other announcements expected later.
Last summer, a Turning Point Action Conference straw poll showed Trump then leading the pack in the GOP primary, with Kirk saying at the time: "The straw poll demonstrates that President Trump remains the single most dominant force among the conservative grassroots. All the attacks against him have seemingly made him even stronger and more popular among the conservative faithful."
