I don't disagree with you in any fundamental way.  As a man more than twice his age, I am tempted to think of MY as a "kid" -- which of course he isn't.  He's an adult, and was an adult at "all relevant times" (as a lawyer would say) during his public life as a self-indulgent, racist, sexist, homophobic bully. It's true that the despicable folks at Breitbart game him his platform, but it's also true that he elected to ascend the platform and to use it to spew filth. Still, for all of that, although not a kid, he is a young man and probably has as much as two-thirds of his life ahead of him.  Whatever time remains to him is a gift, and he can use it to make amends for the horrendous behavior of his early years. I believe in redemption, and that is my hope and prayer for him.
