Debater Gifts

'I'm now going to open the floor to questions.'

Dialogue

"And now I'll open up the floor to softballs."

Debate Club Note

'Thanks. Great political discussion.'

Danae's Debating Career: 'I'm practicing argument-winning techniques...all that matters is the appearance of winning it.'

Speaker and crowd 'Think for yourself!', 'MAKE me!'

Hot air ballon, but with the ballon replaced by a thought bubble.

'How humiliating! I got shot down by my own talking points!'

Speech Bubble Arguments

"I stand corrected. There ARE such things as stupid questions."

And now, for a rebuttal.

'...and taking the opposing view, on leave from his sentence at the state prison...'

Cockfight of words

"I found the old format much more exciting."

'The voters must never know we agree on ANYTHING. They'll throw us both out!'

Giant 'NO' with a small man holding a 'Yes',

Opening arguments would begin after the intimidation round.

"...and they're just the moderators!"

"Well, I'm an expert on communication!"

Point A

"I know absolutely nothing about that subject, but I will give you my opinion."

You Can't Argue With The Facts!

"All I did was remove his flag pin!"

Media Hell

"There I trust that settles it."

"You're drinking my flop sweat."

"It's a new record - one minute, thirty-seven seconds before anyone mentioned Trump."

Debate Night

"Those are all brilliant points, but I'm louder."

"What Color Is Your Soapbox?"

The last word.

"Now that's a win."

"Kaa-mu-luh Harris."

"O.K., O.K., people - we're not workshopping these, they're already set in stone."
