Does he even understand what a public figure is? And how that raises the stakes for an individual? Is Tucker too stupid to understand that there are people out there that shoot public figures just to get attention? i.e. His beloved Ronnie got shot by someone who wanted to impress Jodie Foster.

I am so tired at the level of stupidity that pundits are allowed to get away with.
