* RightwingMilitiaFanatic: Tells Joe Arpaio he has 43 guns "for the upcoming race war".

* RightwingMilitiaFanatic: NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: His depiction as a seemingly friendly and childlike Nordic [=YouTuber=] with neofascist political views pegs him as an unflattering riff on LetsPlay/PewDiePie, who became embroiled in controversy the year before the show started production over a stunt where he paid a couple of Fiverr users to say an antisemitic epithet and an incident where he called another player the n-word on-stream.

* TheBully: He was very rude to Bernie Sanders, remarking "[[WouldRatherSuffer I prefer to be anally raped rather]] than give one more dollar to the Treasury!" When Bernie tries to defend that America's poor need assistance that can only be made possible by taxpayer money, Billy then goes off-topic to deliberately nonsensical math.

* CombatPragmatist: Embodies this during the quick close quarters combat montage interludes between scenes. He's a master of UsefulNotes/KravMaga, shown to be particularly proficient at close quarers gun disarms. The shooter defences he shows to interviewees in the main segments, however, are anything but pragmatic combat.

Even if I cited useful notes rather than tropes, please follow my lead and rewrite what I had into other parts of the character's description. Also, I started this article, so I get to keep my use of British English, e.g. "defence".


An Israeli counter-terrorism expert, formerly of the UsefulNotes/{{Mossad}} and now either a sergeant, a brigadeer or a colonel in the military itself (the captions are inconsistent). Tours around the USA to interview political figures and offer his rather unorthodox services in proactive defense against ISIS.

* BadassIsraeli: Has a long and storied career in the Israeli military and intelligence services, serving during UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror.
* CombatPragmatist: Embodies this during the quick close quarters combat montage interludes between scenes. The shooter defenses he shows to interviewees in the main segments, however, are anything but.

* TheSlacker: Uses a mobility scooter though he's not handicapped, he wants to "conserve his finite energy". This could be a TakeThat at Donald Trump's false claim that the human body is a like a battery and exercise is bad for it.
