Like bringing a melon baller to a gun-law fight.

Harvard Law, clerk for Chief Justice Rehnquist, TX Solicitor General, proven ability to speak eloquently and think on his feet. etc.
Milanos only chance is to try and throw a lot of unsubstantiated facts and half truths around to confuse the audience.
Cruz is also good at refocusing on facts.

Looking forward to watching. Maybe a few Mom's Demand folks can be on stage too.?

Milano references scripture while cursing Cruz.

Before the discussion ever takes place we know which one will be courteous, civil and which will be wild eyed potty mouthed repeating talking points.

I know, but she will do that and be completely emotional, probably a lot of yelling too... she and her people know he's got a fair debate in the bag so i expect a bunch of crap to fly his way. The fact that she wants to live stream it is a huge red flag, suggesting shenanigans.

I'd suggest live streaming from Sen. Cruz's office with no one present except the two of them, cameras and camera operators.

I couldn't find where anybody had posted the "debate", so here it is. Not much of a debate. Alyssa did very little speaking, except to continually ask for a UBC. Ted Made good points, but I doubt it got through to her. It wasn't a surprise that she brought reinforcement to do her speaking for her.

She’s an idiot and ripe for a Red Flag call on her obvious mental issues. She admits to owning two guns in California for self-defense.
