Marjorie Taylor Greene goes on angry rant demanding AOC debate me one day after accosting her
U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who may face an ethics inquiry after accosting New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is now attacking her nemesis through the media, telling AOC through reporters, "you need to debate me" and "defend socialism to the American people."
Congresswoman Greene told The Washington Post's Jacqueline Alemany that Rep. Ocasio-Cortez "can't call me a bully because I'm trying to talk with her about policy that will change our economy... What she is a coward and a fraud and a fake."
"Ever since Jan. 6 they can't even treat us with respect and we were victims, too," added Greene, who was forced to deny having a role in the insurrection, added. "We didn't cause it. All these lies they say on and on and on. They need to be civil. None of them are civil to me," she said of Democrats.

AOC would CRUSH that fucking moron in a debate.....she should DO IT

(5,044 posts)One has to have mutually agreed upon baselines of facts and truths.
So, in what reality does one debate a liar?

(170,365 posts)I think it would be great; AOC would CRUSH her
Rational people would be aware of her lies and would applaud exposing her.
The GOP base would accept her lies and decide that she's putting AOC in her place.
The debate would not change minds, because we reside in two different realities where on one side, 2+2 = 3.

Margarine suffers from all 3
AOC: educated, brilliant speaker, has a bright future, well respected, pretty, slender
Margarine: uneducated, not articulate, extremely jealous of AOC, has no real future in politics, stocky shapeless body, course...I could go on

(11,767 posts)The reality is that Greene has no plan to actually debate the issues. She would use the opportunity to create a spectacle where she would yell, accuse, speak over, and try to intimidate AOC. Greene is not a very intelligent person. You can tell by her speeches that she knows very little about most subjects. She lacks the skill to articulate her positions and the knowledge to even understand her opponent. The problem is that right wingers do not go into debates in good faith. They go there to try to bully, insult, and otherwise "own" the libs.
Any decent, thinking person knows that if it were a debate on the actual topics, with rules dictating conduct and engagement, AOC would make Greene look like the moron she is.

(170,365 posts)AOC doesn't strike me as the kind of person easily intimidated or drowned out
Caliman73
(11,767 posts)The problem is that there would be two separate goals in the debate. AOC would be looking to win by talking about the facts in good faith. Greene would be looking to win the spectacle and part of it would be getting her message out to a larger audience. Simply engaging with her is already a loss.
This has nothing to do with AOC's skill or courage. Greene has no right to share a debate stage with ANYONE let alone someone of AOC's caliber.

AOC is too smart to fall for this kook's obvious tactics.

Either that or these are the traits she is afraid of being exposed for.
Are you just a coward inside, MTG? Are you afraid of people seeing what a fraud you are?
