This is important, too. At least it was for me, judge for yourself.

How to convince them?

Don't just WIN, PERSUADE. Don't strive to win a debate, try to persuade.

Next, a billionaire doesn't give a rat's ass. TRUE. But he FAKE CARES better than the other side.

So Democrats have to CARE and sympathize---Try put yourself in the person's shoes and share with them you care enough to listen. Republicans MUST fake it to hide the fact they don't give a rat's ass as correctly pointed out. But they only part-time fake it, the rest of their approach is not what you'd expect---CARING---it is being ANTAGONISTIC and tougher on minorities, Democrats, immigrants, lawbreakers, and the poor. Tougher on anyone but Republican criminals.

Just wait till they wreck one of their bikes, sustain brain injuries and require constant care. I guess Trump is going to be really concerned about the disabled.
