Shapiro’s idea of a “worthy character:”

Chris Kyle. When the famed sniper was murdered at a Texas shooting range in February 2013, not only did the White House make no statement, the White House sent nobody to his funeral. And while the White House did issue a statement about the death of singer Whitney Housing (she died that same month), the White House never even mentioned Kyle.

Uh, “Whitney Housing?”

But Chris Kyle was a raving far right bigot, by the way.
