    It’s kind of funny watching these conservative “pundits” think they are there to “own” all the normal Americans (non-conservatives) and they either believe their bullshit so hard or they want to believe it. And then faceplant.

    For example, Scott Jennings. It’s funny to see cons trying to spin clips of him “owning” others on that panel or whatever.

      They’ve been watching decades of Faux News and other conservative programming, along with people like Charlie Kirk, that steamroll their opponents with bullshit, loaded questions, and Gish Gallop so heavily that there’s no possible way to disprove them in the time given - and that’s if they don’t just shout them down or outright ignore their rebuttal.

      So these wannabe “kirks” just try to mash the easy button without realizing how controlled the environments are in which the conservative pundits operate to prevent actual opposition.

        I think Scott Jennings is maybe stepping down now. Wonder if it has anything to do with him melting down when debating Adam Mockler.

        Good grief, Scott is just a gigantic baby. He seems to love to do his gaslighting of others then acting all shocked and gives gigantic smirks about how “emotional” others are, but apparently Mockler really gets under his skin by asking basic fucking questions, LOL.

        It’s always projection with conservatives. ALWAYS. If they cannot control the framing of a discussion - meaning, allowed to get away with lies, Gish Gallop, cut mics of those they disagree with, and loads of logical fallacies, it is they who suddenly catch feelings.

        I know of at least two times where Scott got all butthurt over questions from Mockler. Probably drives him crazy that someone that looks like he’s still in junior high runs circles around him. Also, Mockler is gay, LOL.
