    You don't know how to research, that's why. When I searched on Google, several links popped up from mainstream sources in 2017, which is how I referenced Chelsea Clinton coming to Barron's defense. Can't help you learn how to search bud.

    My quick Google search shows two instances where Clinton defended Barron when he was around 11-12 years old.

    Daily Caller criticized Barron for how he dresses.

    Comedian Zack Bornstein joked about Barron (recast role).

    Was there more that I missed?

    You think raw data spitting is a scientific study.

    Chelsea bless her heart was blasting randoms on the Internet. You can never change the behavior of randos on the Internet. Which prominent person with clout was Chelsea referring to?

    I wouldn't just call these two random no-body on the internet. One is a right-wing news and opinion website, and the other is a comedian.

    All non-nobodies should be called out for NOT LEAVING kids of politicians alone. Just leave them out of it.

    I didn't know a comedian made fun of barron.

    But I don't see any political actors with clout doing it. A edgelord comedian? Maybe.

    Damn you might be right.

    Is this going out of convince me that the party that waxes lyrical in a gleeful manner about mass deportations and calls migrants farm hands and meat packing workers as foreign invaders isn't a existential threat to basic humanity?

    Nah. Probably not.

    I know none of those except Colbert, and my Google skills are lacking - I can't find anything about Colbert 'making fun' (I assume) of Barron. Do you have a link?

    Since you are one of the very few respectful posters from the Dem side, I'll ya a bone, it had to do with Thanksgiving for Colbert so look up Colbert/Barron/Thanksgiving

    The impacts from near zero to high are: Randos > Celebrities > Politicians > Media > Party Leaders.

    Trump supports some of the people that went after Gus. Eg. He pardoned Dinesh D'Souza, who is a straight a$$hole and liar, and it's no surprise that he went after Gus yesterday.

    Call them all out, but there is always a difference and so it's wrong to play the bothsideism game.

    No one made fun of a 10 year old Barron.

    You are making the claim. It is on you to provide the proof.

    Ya he's 18 now and now we have a insight to content he watches. He's fans of Adin Ross now so we kinda know what type of adult he's becoming. The misogynistic type who unironically likes guys like Tate and Adin Ross.

    To actually make your point, I suggest you take just one of those examples and post what was said and then compare how awful it is to making fun of a kid for crying out of love for his dad. A vague "both sides" accusation doesn't really cut it.

    Please provide receipts.

    I distinctly remember Barron being left alone.

    I'm guessing the number of examples of public figures you can cite can be counted on one hand, if that.

    Walz's son has got more **** this week alone than Sasha, Malia, and Barron combined.

    I do not have a side in this argument.
    Attacking any offspring of a candidate is out of bounds, but I did pull this up rather easily.
    Not taking sides.

    Damn. One SNL writer made a joke that she removed. So a COMEDIAN made a bad joke. That is the same as political pundits making comments about a neuro divergent kid.

    Relax Francis.
    This isn't my fight.
    I just pulled up an example.
    Carry on.
