Scott Walker urges Trump to attend GOP debate: ‘This guy dominates the stage’

Former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) says he thinks it would be a mistake for former President Trump not to attend the upcoming Republican presidential primary debates as the former president threatens to skip it.

“[The race] is certainly his to lose right now. He’s an unconventional candidate. When some people talked about him not going to the upcoming debate in August in Milwaukee — I think that would be a mistake,” Walker told CNN’s Dana Bash on “Inside Politics” on Monday.

They'll even send you a picture of you driving...in real time.

Irrelevant to whether something is firsthand. I admit I couldn't resist recalling that episode of Columbo where someone used a mask to fool the traffic cam.

I need no lessons from you.

Well, they don't have to be from me, but you have been pretty stubborn in not accepting clearly defined words in the dictionary. Perhaps someone else can help you.

[Dr. Sivana]

Do you think your two second lag argument is going to hold up in traffic court if you’re cited?

You are repeating yourself with more irrelevant examples. The court could convict you, but that doesn't make it firsthand evidence. You are confusing "firsthand" with "compelling", "physical", etc.

You also completely ignored my post 174, perhaps because it is silly to compare news coverage on TV and Internet with living and working at the place in question.

The fact is, my experience of living and working in Madison, Wisconsin, gave me a fuller understanding of the environment under which Governor Walker was operating.

No matter how much footage you saw, or at what resolution, much of it likely had voice-overs. ALL of what you saw relied on what the cameraman felt like showing you. That is not the same as walking in the downtown, overhearing conversations in the DOT cafeteria, seeing the yard signs in the local neighborhoods, witnessing the violence firsthand (as well as the local media coverage, which was not first hand, but likely more complete than what you would get in Texas), noticing what people WON'T talk about. It is not the same as watching a live feed.

You didn't do that.
Yes I did. Compare to the online version if you like.

No, you didn't. I have compared them.
This is what you wrote...

I am merely stating the fact that the definition of firsthand means "direct" observation.
That isn't copied right out of your book. IT CAN"T BE!
There is no definition of Firsthand in any Black's Law Dictionary.
Now you can't even admit that you were wrong when it's right in your face and you're trying to cover your tracks.

Cognitive dissonance. You have it BAD!

Tell that to the judge! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You can't find the word Firsthand in your own law dictionary despite claiming there was a definition there.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You also completely ignored my post 174...

Nope, you were repeating yourself with more irrelevant examples,just like in this reply.

[Dr. Sivana]

I had typed in the part that was transcribed from the dictionary, entering a a bold header. I thought you could tell the difference between my portion and the hand-typed definition.

I also explained to you how law dictionaries are designed.

I also explained to you the Transitive principle.

You still won’t address my earlier statement, which is closer to the main part of the topic.

“The fact is, my experience of living and working in Madison, Wisconsin, gave me a fuller understanding of the environment under which Governor Walker was operating.

How are they irrelevant?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I cannot help it if you cannot parse a sentence. Laughing is no substitute for a well-defined case.

[MayflowerMadam]

I LIKE your idea. If there’s a chance RFK will make Biden look bad, there will be no debate.

[philman_36]

That is an assertion, not a fact.

[philman_36]

I'm SOOOOOO wounded. How DARE you attack me?! Boo-HOO! /sarcasm
Parsing a sentence is nothing compared to wading through
the vast amounts of male bovine manure you exude.

Laughing is no substitute for a well-defined case.

I'm laughing because you have no case.
You can't define Firsthand out of your own law dictionary.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I'm a little surprised there is a free version online after under 40 years.
You thought I couldn't check your words.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Well, you kept linking to the Second Edition, and I knew I had the Fifth Edition.

I linked to it ONCE!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[philman_36]

Why is your word worth anything, because you say so?

Nope.
What fruits do you bear? Deception? /rhetorical question
