The MAGA Doctrine: The Only Ideas That Will Win the Future

Written by Charlie Kirk

Narrated by Timothy McKean

The movement that brought Donald Trump to the White House has better ideas than the old right or the new left. It’s time that the rest of America started listening.

The Tea Party began as a protest for patriots who feared Big Government. President Trump has become a hero for patriots who are against Big Everything. 

Fed up with Silicon Valley, the media, liberal higher education, the military-industrial complex, Twitter mobs, swamp monsters, Big Pharma, out-of-control prosecutors, and gun-grabbing fascists, ordinary Americans miss the days when America cared about rule of the people, by the people, and for the people. Remember when you didn’t feel bombarded on all sides by coastal billionaires and their government stooges? The MAGA Doctrine urges an overdue restoration of self-rule by a populace long taken for granted by its rulers. 

Turning Point USA founder and social media superstar Charlie Kirk explains once and for all why a New York real estate magnate found an audience among young conservatives all over the country. Trump and his allies are working to protect all the small things that both parties dismissed: local businesses, families, churches, and the rights of the individual. Kirk explains why it took a reality TV superstar to see past the sclerotic and power-hungry institutions, from the United Nations and Google to Harvard and Viacom, working to crush real America. The Trump Doctrine is all about giving you a say in the future of America and a hand in making it happen. 

As the mainstream media keep churning out lies about the “real reasons” behind the new conservative agenda, Charlie Kirk’s The MAGA Doctrine is a powerful reminder of the true narrative of freedom and greatness that swept Donald Trump to the presidency.

Charlie Kirk

CHARLIE KIRK was the Founder and President of Turning Point USA, a national student movement dedicated to identifying, organizing, and empowering young people to promote the principles of free markets and limited government. With a presence on over 2,000 high school and college campuses nationwide, 250,000 student members, and over 150 full-time staff, Turning Point USA is the largest and fastest growing conservative youth activist organization in the country. He was named to the Forbes “30 under 30” list and was also the youngest speaker at the 2016 Republican National Convention and was the opening speaker at the 2020 RNC. He was the author of six books including the #1 Amazon and New York Times bestseller, The MAGA Doctrine: The Only Ideas that Will Win the Future, Right Wing Revolution: How to Beat the Woke and Save the West, The College Scam: How America's Universities Are Bankrupting and Brainwashing Away the Future of America's Youth, Time for a Turning Point: Setting a Course Toward Free Markets and Limited Government for Future Generations, Campus Battlefield: How Conservatives Can WIN the Battle on Campus and Why It Matters, and posthumously, Stop, in the Name of God: Why Honoring the Sabbath Will Transform Your Life. Charlie was also the chairman of Students for Trump, which aims to activate one million new college voters through its more than 350 chapters present on campuses in battleground states in the lead up to the 2020 presidential election. In 2019, Charlie was granted an honorary doctorate from Liberty University citing his exceptional leadership and energetic voice for conservatives. Later that year, Charlie co-founded The Falkirk Center for Faith and Liberty, a Christian think tank working to expand religious liberty and advance conservative principles in the public sphere. Charlie's social media reaches over 100 million people per month and according to Axios he is one of the “top 10 most engaged” Twitter handles in the world behind only President Trump among conservatives. Charlie was the host of “The Charlie Kirk Show” which was a top-10 ranked podcast on Apple News charts, and hosted the nationally syndicated radio show which goes by the same name. Charlie Kirk was assasinated on September 10, 2025, while on stage at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, for a Turning Point USA event, "The American Comeback Tour." He was 31 years old and left behind a wife and two children. CharlieKirk.com

Reviews for The MAGA Doctrine

[ted · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Good book very insightful and informative. Talks about the wonderful successes of the Trump administration that are worth noting.

[Chizimogar The1&only · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

It’s a good book everyone here probably didn’t even read the book and are politically motivated to make this book look bad

[Major · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This is a great book, and I highly recommend it to everyone on both side of the party lines. It basically outlines the history of our current political and economic situation, and Trump's policies in correcting the broken and corrupt system. Instead of hating on Trump and Kirk, read some books - including history. His doctrine supports all of America.

[Bryan Barth · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Great book, full of insight. It is the pulling back of the curtain on what’s really happening in our country today. And we need Donald Trump today, and for the next four years working this country ever has dated a great president.

[Daniel Ziedins · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Great book, Charlie is an incredible man of God speaking truth! He will be missed but his legacy will live on and the world will change for the positive because of him!

[sfbriancl · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

[Elizabeth Jean · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

what a terrible terrible book. truly abhorrent and full of lies.

[Gerard Martinez · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

Ridiculous book. Not worth the time. A ridiculous book about a ridiculous mindset and presidency.

[Eugene Balfour · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

This person is a fraud. 5 years ago, Charlie Kirk was talking about how bad of a person Trump is. Charlie Kirk does not even support the people of America or conservatism. He has homosexuality in his movement (Lady MAGA). and he supports giving $3.8 billion/year to Israel He supports us giving He denies the USS Liberty

[Branden Harris · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

Please go jump off a tall cliff Donald. Please. Doofy Drumpf.

[Mikhaila · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

It’s unfortunate that so many think so harshly about Trump after he got elected. Facts don’t care about your feelings, and Trumps actions spoke louder than his words - even though so many would argue otherwise. Being offended is just giving power to the offender. Unfortunately these days it’s about who can scream the loudest to prove their point rather than factually backing their ideas to opposing counterparts. Great book Charlie!

[Peter Kropotkin · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

absolutely awful. blatant lies, misrepresentation, and capitulating to the establishment.

[Rosario Antonino Camuglia · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I am a conservative. I appreciated his views, analysis, and explanations of the current administration. His writing and his “facts” were purely biased. He falsely stated that California holds nearly 50% of all Americas homeless population when its more like 30%. He falsely stated that Joe Biden is 80 years old, when he is only 77. Skewing facts in our favor is exactly what the leftist media does and is not a good way to win those on the fence.

MAGA

What got him elected was the ignorant public.
