The election had surprises for both sides. On the Republican side most people were surprised Donald Trump was elected Republican Nominee. On the Democratic side, everyone was surprised on how long it took for Hillary Clinton to beat the unknown senator Bernie Sanders. These two are the exact opposites. Trump believes that we should build a wall between Mexico and the United States, and Mexico will pay the bill. He also says that he will temporarily ban Muslim immigrants from certain countries. Clinton, on the other hand,…
The reason I chose Trump for my MLP project is because my family talks a lot about Trump and the things he is trying to do, that inspired me to write and show people why Trump is causing global conflict because of all of the horrible things he wants to do. The reason why this matters to me, you and Canada is because he now has the power to affect us by one stopping trade between our countries, he could also declare war on our country for whatever reason and start to bomb our cities, homes, and oil plants which our country needs, another thing he could do is the attack another country that is not our…
In the article “Trump, proxy of Racism,” Charles M. Blow argues that “Donald Trump is completely unfit to be the president” because of his racism(Blow). He elaborates on how Trump is not adequate for the president’s job because he puts himself before the nation and makes racist comments that bring out what his supporters think is justified hate. Blow criticizes how Trump diverts any accusations toward him by making “racist, sexist,” or any kinds or remarks(Blow). Blow believes that trump is “unfit” to be the president of the United States due to his ignorant, divisive, and racist qualities. Blow uses diction to create a deprecatory tone which helps emphasize his point on how Trump is not qualified to be a president.…
First off, WE'RE SCREWED. It was the last presidential election of our time. The candidates were terrible. It was either World War III(Hillary) or The Purge(Trump) and I guess America chose The Purge. So, I guess it's time to say goodbye to all people of mixed or other ethnicities, because Trump's gonna make us all go back. Time to say goodbye to those we befriended and growled to love. Goodbye to all the things that actually make this country GREAT. He says, "Let's Make America Great Again," but does he really mean it. America was created as a place where people all over the world can come and make something of themselves. Now it's a place where we look down on those who are different or those of us will different talents. We judge people…
If there can be any objection to the administration, it can be the general disdain it has for reality. The President of the United States of America has employed the highest offense possible; he attempts to promote contradictory ideas at the same time and hold that they complement each other. Trump’s most important example should be his tone on the campaign trail. Trump’s campaign was run on two violently opposing ideas: that America is a perfect nation, that America is God’s nation, that America is the savior and protector of the world, America has the perfect culture that all nations should adopt, and our soldiers are the strongest, our products are the best, our land is the most beautiful, and that all nations should be subservient to American…
Throughout the speech Trump listed examples such as the trade deficit, poor infrastructure and the destruction of American values. With each example given, Trump outlined how America has fallen from its once glorious ‘silver eagle’ status. America has always been the country that the world looks up to as being at the forefront of humanistic values such as innovation, integrity, free speech and religion. Trumps ideas of how America has fallen evokes a concern for what most citizens’ see as true American principle and doctrine. Trumps use of language to alarm the public is in general an attempt to illustrate the loss of American…
In this article, Jeb Bush says he wants more civility in our government and reinforce its presence as a world leader at the Mackinac Republican Leadership Conference. During this conference Bush wanted to create a contrast between him and Donald Trump by not only calling for greater civility in our government but also in life. This article was not useful for my essay because our prompt was not to compare and contrast the candidates but rather the media that portrays the candidates.…
In his blog post, Sean Patrick Hughes discusses his concern over the election by arguing that a Donald Trump presidency could be a significant barrier to the fight against division in our country. He begins his post by clearing articulating where his view is coming from; he is not a “safe space, social crusader,” but rather identifies as “someone with conservative values” who loves God, his family, and his guns. The first paragraph is entirely dedicated to establishing ethos because he understands that to effectively argue to his audience, they must not instantly write him off as a “leftist cry baby” or a “right-wing nut job,” as is so common in many opinion pieces relating to the election. The next paragraphs are dedicated to providing a background…
It occurs every four years, the United States is in an election cycle. During this campaign season, however, has been unlike any election ever taken place in modern history. Beginning with a large pool of candidates, the primary elections, primarily among the Republican party took an extremely negative unexpected turn. Many voters feel that the remaining candidates for both Democratic and Republican party are very disappointing. The two parts appear to be strongly divided and in deep turmoil. Who has inspired me as a voter, and who has put up the best, and most honest fight to be in office is Bernie Sanders…
Donald Trump’s call to “Make America Great Again” has polarized the nation, and is a very current and relevant example of corruption and violence infecting a modern revolution. Although unlike his liberal counterpart Bernie Sanders he hasn’t actually called for a “political revolution,” Donald Trump’s radical policies would be just as much of a departure from traditional American politics. He calls for the deportation of millions of illegal immigrants, a wall on the Mexican border, a ban on Muslims, and for companies based elsewhere to bring their jobs back to the United States. Ever since Trump gained the national spotlight he has been criticized for his Trump University scam and inciting violence among his supporters. When Trump University…

And by doing so they would have to face a lot of the issues and policies America has today. The issues of; Education, Terrorism, and immigration. Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton are promising to deal with these issues of immigration, education, and foreign policy. However, based on what was said by both, after comparing and contrasting the two: Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton both want the same thing for education, they want to make it more affordable for students, however when it comes to Immigration Trump wants to get rid of every illegal in a harsh and irrational way. Meanwhile, Clinton wants to just deport the illegals that are a threat to society. And when it comes to terrorism Mr. Trump wants to ban all Muslim people from entering our country because he feels this will end it. While Hilary wants to prevent it with plans that have prevented it in the past. Because of these factors I believe that Hilary Clinton is the best candidate for the presidency because of her rational thinking and calmness, she portrays the best features that the future President should…
