He seems wise, but he fails to understand that not all newcomers share the same pasion for US as his family did. There are newcomers who would like to get the high standards of living while in meantime turning the US into the same sh*thole they came from. And this problem isn’t specific only to US – all developed countries facing it more or less.

Compassion = strength, selfishness = weakness. This is easily proven by the fact that all heroes endeavor to selflessly help others, and or defend those less able to defend themselves. If your mother was being beaten by thugs, would you prefer someone with compassion was there to step in and defend your mothers life? Or would you prefer that someone be selfish and just walk away and let her be beaten to death because they were too selfish to risk their own safety to save another living being?

Advantage that a court has over your average day, court has rules. In our average day any argument without rules no one wins. For an argument to have ground both sides need to follow same set of rules, otherwise, if one of them does not, the debate is good as trash. Many times, the irrational wins over the rational as it can not keep up nor penetrate someones illogic, therefore you can only wait untill the individual has experienced what you have to come to the same conclusion (my idea for now). While I agree that the timing needs to be right, but that a good argument will always win in the long run is questionable (mostly outside the court).

EDIT: I am happy to hear, that a few minutes in, the talk it seems to go exactly in the right direction. End of edit.
Without even having seen the talk, I feel like with a title like this, it can only go into a wrong direction. Its appealing at first. Because who wouldn’t like to win or convince an opponent. But if its only about winning, you are doing it wrong. “Winning” should be the natural consequence of having the better argument, the better reasoning. So maybe be more rigorous with you onw thinking first. Aguing should be about correct reasoning and a proper, fair debate, which will allow all involved parties to leave with the best position on a topic. Sure, if you are convinced that you have the best view, position, conviction, learning to present it in a convincing manner will help. But sticking to proper reasoning AND fair manners in aguing should enable yourself to either naturally win the argument or let youself be convinced by the better argument of your opponent, so everybody profits. If its just about winning, even if you are wrong or negligent of wether you are wrong or not, you become basically Trump.

Neale, after watching your presentation, I happened to watch this film-JUST MERCY. In his argument to get all the charges against his client dismissed, in front of the judge, I saw the lawyer did exactly as you described. Michael B Jordan, as the lawyer for the defendant, was amazingly engaging with the judge and you can see it in their eyes. It was amazingly wonderful.
