He also made the dubious decision to enter the celebrity political influencer game, which is obviously a contentious arena where one must accept they will receive a lot of criticism. If you don't want to get shit on, don't try and become some political influencer because that's exactly where people shit on each other.
Further, as you've agreed, he's not even smart or good at being a political figure. So the only qualification he is touting to be a political figure and speak to the public is the fact he made a decision to go into a volatile situation with a gun. That's a dumb qualification for speaking or trying to be a celebrity, so why not shit on it?
