My son is a pretty fair person (he is an Independent) .

With the msm non stop condemnation of Trump, I can't blame him for seeing things this way, and of course Trump has made some statements that certainly can be taken the wrong way- he is far from perfect. It seems to me though, that when he is out on the stump he is much more clear in talking  about how he would fix things. Does anyone have any helpful suggestions as to a short video or article that I could email him that might paint Trump in a more fair light?
Here is my son's opinion (I had emailed him a video of Hillary)  :

Thanks for the link, Mom, you're right, that first one didn't work. The email scandal is pretty atrocious, no doubt about that, and the fact she at one time opposed gay marriage upsets me too...I have to say though, the first debate on Monday didn't give me any confidence in Trump either.

He is embarrassingly arrogant, it pains me to watch him speak. All he does is weave in "I'm such a great business man, my business is doing tremendous" blah blah blah. It's cringe worthy, and seems to be stemming from some kind of insecurity. He is SO out of touch with the real world, how could ANYONE in the middle class think he has ANY idea what its like to live a normal life? He's so out of touch with reality. He claims the 14 million dollar loan he received from his family was "very small" – what a ridiculous statement. I have no problem with him being a wealthy business man, but listening to him speak about himself with such arrogance is just so infuriating. Being a great business man has little bearing on his ability to lead a country. The USA is not a business, it's much more complicated than that.

He was also unable to speak intelligently about most of the issues brought up. His understanding of ISIS and US forces placement/exit from Iraq is abyssal. He makes bold claims, and when they are read back to him, sometimes only moments later, he flat out denies them.

He is also incredibly immature and ill suited to be a president. The rant about him having the right temperament to be president is just laughable. He took every bit of bait Hillary laid out for him. He is just so petty, he can't handle any kind of criticism, without lashing out and threatening litigation. The anecdote about him threatening to bomb those Muslims out of the water is so fiery and reactionary...Could you imagine the inflammatory things he could say to other diplomats once he's in office? 

I know many people find him "refreshingly real" because he's not a politician, and doesn't speak like one, but as the president, you have an obligation to speak carefully, and cordially, and to think carefully before speaking. He is clearly not capable of that. People made fun of George W. Bush for not having the greatest vocabulary, but that didn't bother me that much. George at least knew how to speak carefully enough so as not to anger our allies.

I've seen videos of trump saying that the "2nd amendment folks" should assassinate Hillary. I've seen evidence of his racism and bigotry. It's shameful. The fact that his response to the allegation that he was sued for not allowing blacks to take residences/real estate was very telling...Instead of assuring anyone that he isn't racist, he simply says "we settled without admission of guilt." –I'm sorry, but that to me basically says he was guilty of racism, but got away with it with a relative slap on the wrist, alongside many other real estate firms. 
These are the actions of a petty individual. I don't like Hillary. The email scandal and Bengazi were terrible. But I hate trump and do not trust him at all. I feel strongly that he will hurt this country, and our reputation, and provoke hatred from other countries.

This is the worst election ever!

Mike
