Crenshaw is a fag but this seems like a typical out of context gotcha. We also don't know what happened before the video started, because he seems pissy from the getgo. I'd hardly call this a big deal in any case, so let's talk about his steadfast support for israel instead
I don't care if the ten-year old called him a faggot zogbot pirate. Talking like that to a child is a sign that you've lost it.
She's obviously pulling a stunt at the direction of her parents because a child would never show up to an event, let alone ask questions, of their own volition. But that's irrelevant, anyone facing the public is expected to handle extenuating circumstances. Give a reasonable explanation to answer the question and move on.
I was an obnoxious little know-it-all 10 year old who LOVED reading the Bible and apologetics. It’s possible this girl heard the statement and questioned it immediately since they are far less likely to take that statement the way an adult would, and would be more apt to see the sentence for the way it was structured (ie first half fake, second half real).
If I heard someone say that as a 10 year old I would have done the same, but my question would have been more akin to “do you think Jesus isn’t real? Or Superman is?”
I think people forget that as puberty approaches young people become less "kids" and more "retards in recovery" the fixations, mistreated logic etc come to the fore, but the THINKING is distinctly adult rather than kid. The experience that makes things make sense is still missing, but there's still a firm line.
Perfectly reasonable to me that a 10 year old would want to do this, or at least say they did, and then your parents force you to because that's good parenting.

I mean...I would. That would be amazingly hilarious.
