Reply #27: He's a KID. He should be getting into bar fights

and waking up with a splitting headache and cigarettes stuffed into his asscrack, not having national media dog him.

Of course he's a jerk. Most kids that age are jerks. I was a jerk at that age.

We don't know what potential he has, if any. He could get his act together and kick the dust of Hillbilly Heaven off his shoes and amount to something. Or he could turn into another Joe the Bummer, a paid blowhard for the great unwashed in the service of the wealthy.

However, expecting him to be anything but a jerky kid right now is unrealistic.
