FTI: Workshop: Trump & non trump supporters on Immigration & border security
·En líneaEn líneaWe invite Pro Trump and Anti-Trump people alike to join us in researching the topic of the night. We will look for the facts related to the topic, and how the policies of democrats and republicans have influenced it historically. In this unique event, Trump supporters will have the chance to challenge facts put forth by non trump supporters, and vice versa - Once we’ve put forth the facts by each side - including any concerns put forth by the other side, we will show the conclusions each side comes to based on their understanding of the facts. Doing this will help us get a clear view of how Trump supporters and non trump supporters see the topic.
Lastly, Garrett will put together a presentation and we will get volunteers to present the trump and non trump perspective on the facts and conclusions the following week.
