From the Daily Mail: A group of conservative Gen Z influencers gathered to help elect Donald Trump in a last-minute bid to convince younger Americans to vote Republican.

The Heritage Foundation, a nonprofit that for over 50 years has pushed conservative policy, invited dozens of influencers to Washington, D.C., this week.

The three-day Influence America Summit brought emerging conservative stars like Savannah Chrisley, CJ Pearson, Sean Mike Kelly, Emily Saves America and more to the capital DailyMail.com can exclusively report.

Boasting nearly 50 million combined followers, the meeting of the minds was to discuss content strategies and promoting conservative ideals ahead of Election Day.


Conservative influencer CJ Pearson, 22, who has been posting political content on social media since he was 12 years old, explained that the event was an effort to push back against the Democrats’ use of far-left influencers over the last several years to try to win over the youth vote.

“We convened 30 of the most impactful emerging young conservative voices in our movement, with a combined audience of nearly 50 million people, to strategize about how we can actually reach America’s young people where they are,” Pearson said in a statement to the Daily Mail.

“For a long time, we’ve seen the left invest millions upon millions of dollars into bolstering these fake influencers like Harry Sisson and others, and I think that if we’re going to beat back against their indoctrination online, we’ve got to raise up a digital army, and that’s exactly what we did,” Pearson said.

He admitted that Republicans have lagged behind in this effort, while Democrats have been using TikTok to promote their agenda.

“Thankful to my friend @KevinRobertsTX for partnering with me to host the inaugural Influence America Summit and for believing in my vision. I refuse to allow the Left to indoctrinate my generation without a fight. We’re going to raise up an online army to fight back 💪🏽🇺🇸,” Pearson announced Friday.

“This work isn’t just about President Trump. It’s about doing all we can to advance and keep conservative values alive for America’s next generation,” he added.

Earlier this month, Pearson blasted Barack Obama for insisting that Black men should vote for Kamala Harris.

Last week, Pearson declared, “We’re not stupid. And if Kamala Harris can marry a white man, who is she to tell me that I can’t vote for a white President?”
