1. An argument that starts somewhat constructive but devolves into a
dramatic display of emotional bravado.
2. An argument where no real practical difference is available at the ideological level,
so the crux of the "debate" lies solely on
how much or how little said agreed ideal needs to be applied as the percieved "disagreement".
3. An argument where there isn't any real constructive debate happening,
but rather a battle of egos, pride, and vanity.
4. An argument where attacking your opponent's character, past, family,
or friends as well as name calling or claims of not caring
take precedence over a practical view of the real issues at hand.
5. A euphemism for ranting about, disliking, or even hating something
whilst simultaneously lacking any constructive criticism.

"Mom and Dad were having a Republican Debate about proper directions on the
road trip so I knew I wasn't going to be able to sleep on the way."
"We tried talking to address our relationship problems but it just ended up
escalating into a Republican Debate every time"
"The irony was that they agreed overall but would get heated about
the particulars quite like a Republican Debate."
"He said he loved the USA more than me. I disagreed and told him I loved the USA more than him.
It was a good ol' Republican Debate."
"I argued the subtle beauty of IPAs while she preferred dark stouts
and this seemingly simple mutual love of beer yet disagreement about flavors
could quickly turn into a heated Republican Debate".
"I tried to be rational about my disapproval of her boyfriend's behavior but
ended up escalating into a Republican Debate over it."

A teacher or lecturer who debates with an unresponsive audience as to whether or not they should take a break during the course of the lecture, thereby wasting all the time that should have been spent on the break, debating on whether or not to take the break in the first place.
