did? They yell, scream, talk over people, DON'T listen and never give anyone a chance to speak. They produce no facts, just same old worn out talking points.

(16,254 posts)They have been using them since George W., and they are super irritating. I see now, they also have men trained to do the same thing, but they aren't as good at it and give up sooner.
I'm trying to remember the first motor-mouth I heard. She was a nice looking gal, but she was an expert at over-talking. I seem to recall she finally quit the Republican party, but I may be wrong. Maybe she went back to having a decent conversation and I just assumed she quit the party.

(34,661 posts)how to control and stay on message during debates. Usually persons selected and spotted on Interview Panels have excelled in High School and College Debate Clubs. Once one learns the basics of debate,the rest is practice practice practice. One will learn how to block out the distractions of others and stay on message. Noticed the newer ones have the Gish Gallop perfected much better than what we have seen a few years ago.
