When you opponent says, “I simply don’t trust you. That is what it is.”

Your reply should be a question:

"What specific attributes or expertise would someone need to demonstrate for you to trust their judgment, even if you disagreed with them at the start?"

or maybe

"Is there any combination of professional background and transparency that would outweigh your personal intuition on this topic?"
