Durham concludes that the mayor will agree to a tax increase. This is because a tax increase is the only way the city council will agree to the mayor’s road repair proposal, and that proposal is the mayor’s top priority.

Espinoza concludes that the mayor will not get the road repair proposal passed, because the mayor finds avoiding a tax increase more important than getting the proposal passed. Espinoza’s assumptions are that Espinoza will not agree to the tax increase and that such agreement is required in order to get the road repair proposal passed.

We’re looking for a point of agreement. The speakers agree that the mayor’s agreement to the tax increase is required in order to get the road repair proposal passed.

This is a point of disagreement. Durham thinks the mayor will agree. Espinoza thinks the mayor won’t.

This is a point of agreement. Durham directly states this. Espinoza assumes this. Espinoza believes the mayor won’t agree to the tax increase, and that this failure to agree implies that the road repair proposal won’t be passed.

This is a point of disagreement. Durham thinks it is the mayor’s top priority. Espinoza thinks it isn’t.

Durham expresses no opinion about this. Durham believes the mayor will agree to the tax increase, which is a necessary condition for the council’s passage of the proposal. But Durham doesn’t indicate whether the proposal will or won’t pass.

This is a point of disagreement. Durham thinks the road repair proposal is a higher priority. Espinoza thinks avoiding a tax increase is a higher priority.
