I know it has to be addressed but he is doing this to stay relevant and revive his 2019 fame. At some point we just have to stop giving him the time of day

His career has been declining rapidly for years, but I never thought he’d start spewing right wing talking points to attract new fans / business. Pathetic. 🤣😭

saying this as someone who is considered male but presents as female is just a level of irony that isn’t easily reached very often

Why does he bother you so much? If you don't like him don't watch or listen. He's doing a podcast with Taylor Lewan from the Titans. To me it's poetic.
