In the March 2016 Washington Post, “The GOP - and its big funders - scramble to insulate Congress from Trump,” authors Matea Gold and Paul Kane explains the impact Trump has caused in the congressional race.
Trump sparked great controversy after he passed a travel ban which banned people from seven different Muslim majority countries, and put a hold on the refugee program indefinitely. Unfortunately, Trumps grace upon this wonderful country of ours was put on hold when a judge transgressed his boundaries and deemed the act unconstitutional. Refugees have been a problem to the world for the past decade or so, and have caused hardship to many people across the world, putting stress on the many different governments and the citizens of them. For too long, we the world, are stripped of our happiness and pleasure as we watch these ragged, pathetic beings cling onto what little life they have left like a slaughtered lamb still fighting back although
The passage analyzed in this independent study activity is a speech on immigration delivered by Donald J. Trump in Phoenix on August 31st, 2016. During his speech, Trump clearly asserted his hard-line approach to illegal immigration in United States.
In “A Rebel, a Warrior and a Race Fiend” (2017), Charles Blow affirms that Donald Trump is not on the side of the country; he is allied with the white supremacists, white nationalists racists, and the hostiles. Blow intensifies his initial claim by referencing the National Anthem and the NFL kneeling controversy, and then stating his opinion on the situation and Trump’s actions toward it. He does this in order to reveal the true nature of what Trump is doing to the country, “With every passing day, Trump diminishes the office of the presidency and elevates a virulent strain of racial animus.” Blow is indubitably addressing the entire public because he opens and closes the article with two very blatantly negative statements against Donald Trump;
According to the information, Arizona has voted Republican for the past 4 years and years past. From the polls taken this year, Trump has more support but has not gained majority. According to the current real politics poll results, the margin of error could go either way for three out of four polls. Out of nine representatives, five are Republican, their two senators are both republican, and their state governor, is republican. In the graph of racial/ethnic breakdown of state population, over 50% of Arizona’s population is white alone. Trump has been offensive to others, so we can conclude that the 44.2% of the population will most likely not vote for Trump. But, this is still leaving a majority of the population who may vote for Trump. For
Having Steve Bannon in the National Security Council amongst many other decisions Donald Trump has made during his presidency so far has caused a lot of concerns. There can be arguments from Bannon being a white supremacist to the fact that they turned down somebody with experience with cheaper pay for someone who spent their life talking on a radio show with NO experience for a higher pay.
Although, some may fight the argument by saying that even though Trump is not necessarily taking the rights from the people himself, he is doing it through others, it still does involve Trumps actions as President. People are influenced by others every single day. If someone is influenced by what trump said, they have the right to be influenced and therefore start a peaceful protest just like the NFL players are. Robert Post says “Trumps allies have already begun boycotts … to give teeth to the president.” No matter what anyone else does, it does not equal to Trump suppressing citizens rights. Post continues into this by saying “Still to this date, we have no evidence to indicate that Trump has done anything more than verbally attack the
The 2016 Presidential Election has brought a lot of controversy due to negative statements about not only the United States but as well as other countries specifically focusing on Mexico and the border. Both Presidential Candidates, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have both touched on the topic about Mexico and its border. However, Donald Trump has been the one with the negative statements about Mexico, the border, and their people. I am arguing about the lack of reliability of Donald Trump's statements throughout the Presidential Election about Mexico, the border, and their people. Trump had stated that, “Likewise, tremendous infectious disease is pouring across the border. The United States has become a dumping ground for Mexico and, in
It's common knowledge that Donald Trump is controversial. He often gets attention for saying outrageous things. His latest comments about immigrants seem to have pushed the envelope too far. NBC has cut ties with him. His comments centered on Mexican immigrants. He referred to them as mainly drug dealers, and rapists. While going on to say that some were probably good people, but most were not. This caused a huge backlash against him.
The United States has been referred to as a melting pot, but what happens when the place where many come to chase a superficial “American Dream” fails us. And divides the nation more than it has been in the past as well as hurts businesses, and affects immigrants lives. Who knew one man who holds the most amount of power in the United States could be as close minded and oblivious due to his lack of racial knowledge. One thing many of us pride ourselves with is learning about other races and cultures and being racial ‘woke’ in order to decrease racism and racial injustices towards one another. By doing we help the quality of life of each other slightly better, instead of creating barriers that only divide us.
There are any reasons why hillary clinton should have won. Im am going to state only a few reasons why donald trump should have lost. Hillary even won the popular vote and still lost the election to a rapist a sexist and a racist. And the many other horrible things that donald trump is. Donald trump violates a lot of the constitution not letting people have the same rights. Deporting people who are citizens just because they look wrong to him. He's a jerk and bully he doesn't care what other people want just what he wants. When he says he will “make america great again” no it should be he will “make america bad again”. All he ever does is criticize people around him. He doesn't care what they think all he cares about is himself. He goin got cause a war with someone (most likely iraq).
In conclusion, Donald Trump is both charismatic and holds himself in high esteem, he is eager to explain how exceptionally well he did in the election and does this in great length in his speeches. He even has a framed map of the 2016 election results displayed in the White House (Lozada, 2017). In his recent speech in Poland, Trump made reference to the ‘West’ ten times. Beinart (2017) argues that in this context the West is not a geographical term, but a racial and religious one. Trump is unlike his predecessors, who acknowledged that democracy and capitalism were not Western, but the universal aspiration of humankind. Previous leaders of the US discussed globalisation as a process where America improved the world. However, Trump describes globalisation as a process by which the world cheats, weakens and threatens America. His words, ‘The fundamental question of our time is whether the West has the will to survive’ (Trump, 2017), only makes sense if non-white, non-Christians are seen as invaders. Thus, this implies that anyone in America who is non-white and non-Christian is a threat. Trump, by describing that being Western is the essence to the US’s identity, is defining the US to be in opposition to many of its own people.
Republican I Donald J. Trump has been continuously unsuccessful in taking the lead against his presidential rival Hilary, however this contradictory presidential candidate may still be able to win the presidency. His rival Hillary has kept a consistence lead over Trump to the point where many people would say the she has won. Nonetheless, the less that may not be the case, there are many presidential elections where the losing candidate losing candidate has made a comeback. For example, Hubert Humphrey in the 1968 presidential election and the Gerald Ford in the 1976 presidential election. Both candidates trailed by double digits in the August and September polls but then made a comeback. Although they had lost both but only by a small margin
Trump administration is becoming more dominant than others major corporation. However, I believe that the U.S citizens do not have a word of their own opinion. In order to have a voice or an opinion, its must require being very wealthy or own a major corporation. No doubt President Donald Trump is building an Autocracy government for an example in the article "Washington issued a temporary restraining order freezing enforcement of Trump’s immigrant and refugee ban"(1) this shows the example of what kind of power the president have. According to the constitution, Donald Trump is violating the rights of Muslims because of their religion, President Trump has a sensation that all Muslims are bad.

In layman’s terms this means having thoughts and attitudes that are not always the same as the general public’s thoughts. In this essay you will be given one example of cognitive dissonance from the media.
