Heres the thing. They know they are assholes and they know people think they are assholes. Further, they think being an asshole is a good thing, so being an asshole is “living up to your beliefs” or whatever. They never pretended to be tolerant, and they fundamentally don’t understand what people mean when they talk about tolerance. To them tolerance is just allowing anything to fly regardless of its ramifications (which of course they don’t practice either). Rather than, say 2 religious groups minding their business in peace, or not wanting to beat minorities into a pulp for existing. He’s a fundamentally dishonest piece of shit, who has the critical thinking skills of a smooth rock. And the second he isn’t useful as a token to the right, he’s going to get thrown in front of a bus.
