Is it common for senators to debate YouTube celebs? I'd love to see that become a thing. Let's get Ted Cruz on ContraPoints stat.

Nfi about senators and yt celebs but that dude's voice is enough to make anyone run a mile :oops:

I don't think it is uncommon. Though I would really love to see more long form discussions rather than a strict debate.

Yeah a predetermined slant from noted liberal Andrew Neil :ROFL:
You can be uninformed no matter your political leanings. Should be pretty evident from these forums.

The opening of the interview set the tone for the rest of it. By critiquing the position of the person you're interviewing or focusing on decade old tweets is hardly conducive to a discussion. Especially if the interview was supposed to be about his book.

That being said, Ben wasn't aware of whom he was speaking to, so read the questions as more hostile than they may have been intended. Hence why I said he over-reacted.

Everyone sounds like that if you listen at 2x speed.

Problem is everyone sounds a tad retarded in real life

I should just go ahead and pin this at the top of the thread:
And now, hypersensitive conservatives have my permission to attack the messenger, rather than the message.

It's fine, AOC doesn't have the intellectual capabilities to debate with Shapiro. That's what happens when you live in an intellectual "safe space" for decades and promote policies that are only popular on social media and not in the real world.
This is a fine parody of the insular, coddled world online conservatives inhabit. Bravo.

What do you think the second amendment is? It gives ordinary citizens a right to enforce the state's anti-homicide laws.
lol, what? Not even close. Try again, konfab. 2/10 attempt.

So my question:
Should a father be able to sue an abortion provider for killing his child?
An abortion provider who murders a child? He could trying suing for a wrongful death.

Republicans turning against democracy should maybe be a bigger story than AOC's dress for the resident pretend liberty-lovers, but can't let the really important issues go un-whined about!
