Turning Point USA and a spokesman for Trump Jr. did not immediately return requests for comment early Monday morning. At the Sunday event, Trump appeared to think the first shouts of dissent had come from left-leaning counterprotesters. On Sunday, he shared dozens of tweets celebrating the event’s shutdown and denigrating Turning Point USA. “Our problem is not with [Trump Jr.] who is a patriot – We are supporters of his father!” he tweeted. On Nov. 4, he directed his fans to show up to Turning Point USA events and heckle speakers during question-and-answer segments.
