If they want an open debate...why not go to the Debate Team or Debate Club that most schools already have?

“They declined to comment and asked the kids not to talk to NYT” says a lot especially since it’s the opposite of what CK would do

Or they could just start a debate club if they dont already have one. There seems to be no benefit of making it club america if they are doing what they say they are supposed to be doing in this club.

Here’s another thing. Most high schools don’t have political clubs. There’s not many with a democratic or republican club. They know this. If that’s happening in your state then Dems and progressives step up and start clubs at your schools!

I don't understand. He said whether you're LGBTQ, a son or daughter of an immigrant, or pro-choice, you have the free will to join the club? I'm pretty sure that Club America is very anti all 3 of those.

She said TPUSA promotes small government? Then why were they backing Trump? He has put his hand in anything he can get it in.

maybe they should set up a critical thinking club first. I feel that in some of these arguments I'm hearing a lot of indeductive reasoning
