I think Trump handled the biz owner’s question about laying off people fairly well. The other thing that was going through my mind at the time was Obamacare - which is costing some businesses a fortune or forcing them to move workers to part-time, move jobs overseas (in addition to the other items mentioned), and/or decrease their workforce.

I don’t know what type of business this guy had and maybe he already paid more than minimum wage, but that’s hitting businesses and employees hard, too. Quite a few restaurants in Seattle have closed or laid off workers since the $15 minimum wage went into effect (idiot Seattle council and the Socialist from India that got voted in - what a freakin’ loud mouth spewing nonsense).

Trump handled all the questions well. Thought about his policy, and expressed it, and let the chips fall where they may. Unlike most politicians who are expert at composing weasel words that make the listener THINK the politician is in their camp.

A real paradigm shift on the political landscape. Bernie is honest too, but his policies would ruin the nation and its spirit.
