@Dan509 There’s a script?

Dan509 · 26-30, M

@SimplyTracie your talking points, what you think of before hand and the rebuttal points you wrote during their speech

@Dan509 How can you possibly know what to rebut in advance?

Dan509 · 26-30, M

@SimplyTracie you don't, you come up with that during their speech. You might also think what they might say ahead of time and think of a rebuttal

@Dan509 hmmmm Okay
