Doing it but the problem is how many people want to believe the lies and will keep believing them even when those liers are called out like this.

When they start their shit on the AM shows, the hosts of the later shows should have plenty of time to prepare. Most days you're going to hear the exact same shit from every single one of them.

But he stopped talking when they asked him to...something that the rest of the Trump apologists never do.

What's that called...Gish Galloping?

...until they run out the clock in whatever forum they're in.

Named for Duane T. Gish of the Creation Research Institute, the 70s-80s predecessor of Ken Hamm. He'd arrange evolution vs creation "debates" before scientists caught on to the tactics, and they'd accept with visions of Inherit the Wind in their heads. But Gish would rattle off point after point after point of "problems" with evolution -- ALL of which had real answers, but answering any one of which properly would eat up all the opposition's response time and then some, much less all of them. The result was that Gish looked like he had stumped his opponent, at least in the eyes of an audience favorable to him, which is the one he cared about.

These people did. You shut up liars by knowing the subject matter and listening to their responses.

They know their shit and they don't let anyone get away with any of their own BS GOP agenda. They should be on instead of Joe and Mika.
