In the first place, we’d kind of like to write this off as a kid who’s in a little over his head misspeaking; but then we remember that MSNBC invited him on to talk about motivating young voters in the fight against gun violence, and since the Left decided David Hogg is their go-to guy on that, you get what you pay for.
David Hogg repeatedly says politicians should *not* go after perpetrators of evil in wake of synagogue shooting

Even if you’re being generous and thinking he just misspoke — he repeats the exact same line about going after the sources of evil and not those perpetrating it.
He can’t really mean that, so good job MSNBC for extending this kid’s 15 minutes.
If @davidhogg111 and @Ocasio2018 stay on the loose, 2020 is a done deal ????

Networks treating David Hogg, age 18 as some all knowing oracle really is peak 2018.

I love how that statement got an “mm” from the host

I heard that mm. It was like saying "Oh, that's so deep."

My God. How stupid is that. Keep that mouth flapping David. The moment of fame is diminishing by the day.
Get that parachute on, the fall gonna be a long one. This intelligent missive on MSNBC. When the blue wave flattens, they won’t be using the likes of you any more.— Ryan Cole (@RyanCol91961785) October 29, 2018

Why are they even talking to him?

Another example of the media providing platforms to individuals who lack the skills and pedigrees to perform critical analyses of important societal issues while standing idly by as uninformed and ignorant messages are disseminated. #callhimout

Isn’t his 15 minutes up??

Someone needs to set him up on a blind date with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. They seem to speak each other’s language
