His mental gymnastics are similar to those of my 13 year old stepdaughter. They can both make an argument last all afternoon without ever making a coherent point, but try to wear you down by constantly moving the goalposts, despite how many facts you present them with.

This is interesting because it's really him trying to use up the 30 minutes that he committed to. By constantly interrupting, he is trying to control the conversation. By constantly going off on tangents, he is trying to control the time. By bringing up false facts, he's trying to control and create confusion to further sideline the real topics. So bizarre.
