she perfected the gish-gallop, a known debate technique aimed at suppressing any other point of view. I don't think I had seen that before 2016 at such a deplorable level. It was so infuriating back then and the goal was obvious. Get your propaganda out while clogging the whole interview with an endless diarrhea of lies, don't let anyone counter your claims and just talk over everybody when it's needed. It destroyed every interview she participated in and I never understood why such a garbage pos like her gets TV time.

Some in the media have realized by now that these types of propagandists bring nothing noteworthy to an interview because they have no interest in an exchange. Sadly, Maher gave her a platform.

I watched it, too. Maher was totally unprepared for her. mnhtnbb Jan 2021 #8

He's been seemingly "unprepared" a lot recently. Either he is losing it or he admires her or he is mtnsnake Jan 2021 #13

She doesn't give an inch. I'd argue that she probably would have been a much more effective press In It to Win It Jan 2021 #16
