Bill, I loved how Kirk claimed that Crimea is part of RuZZia despite the U.N. and the rest of the international community recognizing Crimea as part of Ukraine.

It was at that moment that Kirk fell behind and was subject to laughter and ridicule from the audience.

Kirk tried to rescue himself by claiming that Crimea should never have been signed over to Ukraine in the first place, as if his opinion about the treaty changes the facts.

He then uttered a whole bunch of memorized lines that sounded like they came straight out of Z-propaganda, including PooTin's favorite line about Ukraine not being a democracy because they didn't hold elections during a war.

This is how Kirk operates. His head is full of these lines that are very very loosely based on the facts. He thinks opinion polls are currently running against Zelensky, which they are not but I'm sure he must have heard it from his buddy and Z-propagandist Benny Johnson.

The good professor, for his part, was patient and measured in his responses. He moved toward finding common ground with Kirk after expressing his disagreements over what the basic facts are.

Like it or not, this was not Kirk at his best. Instead, it exposed Kirk as someone who didn't have all the facts straight.

As I said before, he is and always will be a man of the algorithms.
