This young man has seen small business all his life - his father has a tree service - so hearing that Trump screws small businesses made more difference than anything else I could tell him.

While the personality stuff works on some people, I thought the practical things would get him better than worries about national security. This young man is in his early twenties, he's not worrying about what is happening with NATO or overseas.
