Spend two minutes to see why this 23 year old is the best political debater in America.

1. I find him very impressive

very fast thinking and flawless delivery

2. I think he's great

But I think that Luke Beasley (who was pretty outstanding in his recent Jubilee appearance) is just as good.

6. Meh. I don't dig these "debates" where everyone is talking over one another. It comes across as noise.

7. Pro Tip: Replace the shorts/ with

watch?v= if you want to post a YT Short here. ❤️

8. Great tip, thanks!

It works!

I always wondered why the thumbnail for Shorts did not self-populate like regular YouTube videos.

9. He's really good

Would have loved to have seen him debate Charlie Kirk.

10. Why does "the best political debate in America" have silly background music?

It comes across like 'Curb Your Enthusiasm".

And "the other guy hasn't thought his hot take through properly" hardly makes this guy a great debater.

11. MEANWHILE - Yesterday, Gub Desantis announced "The Charlie Kirk Prize."

At the upcoming Florida Civics and Debate Initiative (FCDI) state championship in April 2026, the winner of the top debate will receive a $50,000 scholarship and a trophy named "The Charlie Kirk Prize."

Can't wait to see who the judges will be.
