JohnnyU 3,933 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) Shapiro has offered her $10,000 to her campaign or the charity of her choice to come on to his show for an hour to discuss political topics. My guess is that she refuses, but in the event she accepts, not only would he wipe the floor with her but it would be very entertaining. Edited to put the "t" in event, lol.

TobiasFunke 29,546 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 He’s more than welcome to spend that $10,000 to rent a place in her district and run for Congress. Then he could debate her a bunch of times, and with actual stakes. Probably should ask yourself why he’s doing this instead. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Koya 12,081 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 At least we are rooting for an informed and informative debate whereby we might find common ground and solutions to our nations need in its most trying time during most of our lifetimes - would be a shame to just see people choosing sides and looking forward to someone wiping the floor with their opponent as if we are just rooting for teams (and not USA! by any stretch) 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If that’s the case he can do what I said. He’s doing this instead because he knows she can’t say yes or every dog-whistling idiot with a fan base would feel like they could buy their way onto the stage with her or get the free publicity by insulting her double standard if she refuses. He’s literally trying to buy his way onto a stage he’s too weak or scared to earn by, you know, actually being a candidate. And of course if she says no she’s looks like she’s scared and he still gets his publicity except for free. It’s a pathically transparent move that he knows he can get away with because his audience isn’t smart enough to see through it. 19 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd conjecture that quality of life, economic prosperity including social equity as a component and personal freedoms are now generally better in any number of democratic-socialist countries than here at home. That is not to say a free market and representative democracy can't do better - and while I believe our root system will always, as a reality of greater freedom, have less equality at times, the benefits to greater freedoms imo more than balance that out - but we are not enjoying those freedoms either. All I have to point toward is where we rank on life's basics - economic opportunity and overall prosperity, educational attainment and access to education, health outcomes - and we are doing a pretty #### job considering our wealth and resources. Instead of blindly rooting for our colours as if just being called the USA means anything, we need to be far more honest and critical and get back to what makes a free market democracy so potentially great. But we don't have a free market, we are an ever more economic and political oligarchy, and those we serve bears are big interests (from Unions and selfishness on the left to corporations and greed on the right) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
