    No you’re right that’s insane. Two elected officials are obviously way more prominent than a YouTube personality.

      I didn’t hear about them before they died. And Turning Point is pretty much the MAGA youth league. Dismissing the US’s most influential MAGA voices as just “a YouTube personality” is not doing anything any favor.

        Just because he was prominent in your life doesn’t mean he was to others. I’ve had to explain to more than a few people who he was since they’d never heard of him at all.

          and they’ve heard of the minnesotan lawmakers before they died? even if they have, way less people have heard of them compared to hearing of kirk.
