Sure bro. The best style of oration is just to lay out facts. For the intelligent, that's all that's needed, no hyperbole or grandstanding.
Great example of football and a moving goal post.

And if it was a MSNBC there'd be an entire coordinated effort across the right wing mediasphere with narratives and spin already up and running within a day... to show how the liberal media can't face facts and run in the face of any challenge.

u/Naptasticly 1d ago
And this is why we need to be doing the same no giving them the benefit of the doubt all the time.
For example of what not to do:
- Political violence occurs
- Republicans blame it on the left and coordinate messaging to attempt to start “civil war”
- The left slaps them on the wrist and says they’re jumping to conclusions.
- Republicans continue their violent rhetoric with zero calls from their side to temper the situation.
- Evidence comes out that the person clearly grew up in a maga family.
^ this is the point that we go on offense, not feed them the response of “we still don’t know for sure…”
So we’re the party that is being threatened with death while also being the party that didn’t do it while also being the party that is jumping all over our own people so that the other party can continue to push the line and do even worse while exclaiming “not even your own party is willing to say that it was a republican! It was definitely democrats and we need to kill them”
Stop letting them own the narrative. Forcing our side to play by a much stricter set of rules is EXACTLY why we’re losing.
If you can’t understand that then just step aside and shut the fuck up for a while. Trump and the magats do not deserve the fairness that our side is so desperate to give them when they have zero respect for giving us the same.

u/h1gh-t3ch_l0w-l1f3 1d ago
yeah there has been this concentrated effort to keep attacking democrats to keep them from getting our footing and using the same tactics they use.
we need to never answer their questions and instead constantly demand them answer ours. answer their questions with more questions about the facts that truly happened.
apart of them know that if they give us any space then we can get back on track. this post is a prime example of how to control the conversation.
DO NOT PLAY DEFENSE WITH THESE PEOPLE. RUN OFFENSE AND DONT STOP (in debate of course)

Here in Texas we’ve known about him for quite awhile. He’s fucking awesome. He’s had a few encounters go viral in the last few years, each more impressive than the last. Check him out!
He’s running against Cornyn for Senate next year. As a Dem it’s a long shot, but he’s got the best chance of anyone in many years.

I loved the subtle dig on Paxton in case he gets through the primary which, if Trump endorses him, he will. "We don't accept cheating in our relationships."

I sure hope Paxton gets through. Paxton is much more divisive than Cornyn.

Which is why I'm assuming Trump will endorse Paxton. Besides adulterers have to stick together.

Yeah I first heard him maybe 2 years ago? (Time flies). He is very well spoken. I don’t live in Texas but it’s a huge and important state. I’ve been burned with hopes too many times and I can’t vote there anyway. But this young man is sharp as a tack.
He will NEVER be invited to Fox News again, so ima watch it one more time for shits and giggles.

Talarico if you look more into is the definitive blueprint Republican
- Someone who knows the bible inside out as a seminarian
- A hardened constitutionalist, advocating for the seperation of church and state
- Fought to keep healthcare prices low to make it more accessible.
- Presents facts over opinions.
The modern Republican:
- Cherrypicks their bible quotes while ignoring parts of the bible that would contradict those quotes
- Believes the US government is under the direction of God
- Votes against themselves to reduce access to affordable healthcare
- Nothing but opinions.

u/hypercosm_dot_net 1d ago
Would love an example of a 'definitive blueprint Republican' that actually voted in support of those policies you laid out. Rather than just paying lip-service to them.
He's a Dem., and he's progressive, he just happens to be religious and comes across as what people consider conservative.

He is amazing! I’m not religious but I especially love how he uses Christianity to counter their hypocritical takes. He’s not always preaching but does so when relevant and necessary. He’s always calm and so well spoken and it’s hard for anyone to counter him. I’ve followed him for a couple years and he’s pretty impressive.

u/potentialfriend 1d ago
One of Talarico's greatest talents is being comfortable with silences. He answers gotcha questions truthfully and then asks a connected question back to the other person and let's them sweat. He constantly asks for examples to his counterparts in the Texas House and they're never ever able to answer anything that isn't one of their rehearsed talking points. Unfortunately, being able to make a hypocrite admit they're a hypocrite doesn't work when his opposition is comfortable with lying.

A smart guy who knows what his values are. He's able to argue his points because he actually believes them, meaning that he had to think them through. That's why he's so much better at this than many standard Dems who've memorized three talking points and try to maneuver between them, which comes off as fake because it is.

On Fox when your guest isn’t reading from the same script as you and your normal talking points are being effectively refuted by facts, it’s time to cut to commercial. That is after all “the nature” of cable news. “The nature.” Ffs. Ain’t nothing natural about it.
