When your plumber tells you you need new pipes, do you quiz him on the chemical constitution of PVC, or how much of various solutes can dissolve in water? Or do you trust that he can identify a rusty, leaking pipe without needing to know all of that?

Forget his politics, that doesn't matter at all. He's typical of people his age. Far too many have strong opinions that aren't based on knowledge or facts. It's not even worth discussing a topic with them because they've already decided where they stand without doing a lick of research. We have google at our fingertips and can learn a good amount of information on basically any topic we choose. In an age where information is so widely available to all for free, it's disturbing to listen to many of the youth as they "debate or discuss" issues of the time. It has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with the new standard of offer a strong opinion first and learn the basic subject matter later. Sad

Education in the US ended when my World War Two vet teachers retired. Young Americans do not even know FDR refused to save any Jews and actually did many things to stop Jews from being saved.
