This question’s on my mind because my coworker today mentioned they would vote for Trump if they could (mind you this is 2023, in Canada). I don’t generally have the talking points or the desire to fight about it, so I just deflected the conversation. But I often wish I was more strong-willed and could try to figure out why someone believes what they do and, if it’s invalid, then convince them otherwise.

Thus, I’m curious what you all would say or what you’ve done in the past!

    No point debating it. No one ever changed their mind from an argument.

    I don’t have any friends that like Trump. Anyone that’s OK with the racism and fascism isn’t someone that I care to be friends with.

      That you think this is true says more about you than people in general.
