It dismays me to hear that one of my local representives, Jacob Rees-Mogg, has expressed his personal support for the regressive, divisive Mr. Trump and his Republican party. On Thursday, the member of parliment for North-East Somerset claimed that Mr. Trump's victory represented a "triumph of optimism" and that Mr. Trump shared supposed British values in a BBC radio debate with Ed Milliband. While I appreciate there may be a need to work with him for the good of millions, it was the sheer enthuasisum for Trump and his policies which Mr. Rees-Mogg expressed that I found deeply unnerviving. Particularly so as Rees-Mogg is a backbencher. This sudden, second change of heart is somewhat suprising considering that Rees-Mogg had previously expressed enthuasastic support for Trump and then formally withdrew it on the 8th of October. This was following the release of Trump's infamous, vile "groping" tape, which came at a point when a Republican loss seemed likely. It seems Mr. Rees-Mogg may be something of a fairweather friend. It is also suprising, from my perspective, that he should see any resonance between Mr. Trump's numerous political opinions and "comments" and the culture of the people he represents. I could not think of anyone further away from what Somerset and Avon, at least, have meant to America at their …show more content…
Sometimes conservative, yes, but inclusive and not knowingly unfair or cruel in action or word. He was writing a book of Arthurian legends at the time, but whatever. I believe that this was indeed true historically. The first British abolitionist petition, the social reformers of Bristol, the embrace of methodism, the works of Thomas Hardy, and Glastonbury Festival could not have happened
Bush uses the first few paragraphs of his speech to introduce several of the people he is working with. The appeals he makes in these lines are excellent examples of ethos, the rhetorical appeal to character. Bush continuously comments on the character of the people around him. He speaks of them as if he knows them very well, almost like old friends. Through this appeal the audience became able to relate to these people and learn a little bit about their character. Some of the people mentioned have large families and are of an honest and selfless nature. Because the speaker’s purpose is to gain support from the constituents for the candidates represented, the appeal to the character of the candidates is a crucial tool that becomes extremely vital to the swaying of the audience to the purposes of the speaker.

For months, the crowded GOP field all pledged to commit their support on whoever the eventual party’s nominee would be. That was months ago. Now, the three remaining candidates have reversed their earlier vows to support the eventual GOP nominee.
Oswald Mosley was a man “intellectually and temperamentally a product of his aristocratic upbringing and the emotional aftermath of the First World War” (Beadle 328). During this time period, he influenced his surroundings with distinct political views and actions throughout Britain. Oswald Mosley influenced his time being a Member of Parliament however discounted many opportunities for action blinded by the search of personal power. This blindness led to a fascist approach towards government with views of leadership, resembling control and courage, and actions facing the problems of the new modern world.
Congressman Louie Gohmert, a true American patriot, released a statement on Friday detailing why this election is so important and why keeping Hillary Rodham Clinton away from the White House. Gohmert, who admits he was not in Trump’s corner to begin with, explains that "In his days as a Democrat funder and his friendship with Bill Clinton, Donald Trump’s language was extremely inappropriate, even though Barrack Obama can be seen on video using the same exact language. I knew Donald Trump had such a background, and anticipate there are more atrocious comments in his storied background to be revealed which the mainstream media has been waiting to publicize til October. That’s a reason I didn’t support him in the primary.”
It is sad that two grown politicians have to collude against one person who has only been a politician for ten months in order to try and stop that person from getting the Republican nomination.
For the entirety of the article, Stephens utilizes a very relaxed language, often creating his very own names, like “Trumpkin”. Furthermore he uses acronyms and informal language to create a conversational connection with the reader.This choice provides a sense of intimacy and allows for the speech to really be remembered as not a lot of other articles include such relaxed language. However, this piece is a commentary so it is only right that the author’s voice shines through. As for word choice, Stephens employs many words when describing Trump such as, “oblige his man-crush” and “rocks for jocks .” The word choice almost reflects what Stephens thinks of Trump’s presidency, shallow. Powerful word choice are used several times throughout the article to make his argument

By encouraging individual interpretations of the Bible, the Puritans appeared to offer leniency in their religious approach; however, as Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson outwardly expressed the opinions they gained from their unique interpretations, the magistrates’ intolerance showed how the Puritans actually were not lenient, but “were [rather] … fanatically literary” and therefore unwilling to deviate from their beliefs (13).

Confessing one 's political identity in 2016 truly embodies the phrase “walking on eggshells”. Whether you’re a liberal or conservative, owning up to your political resolutions sometimes comes with some intense backlash. In this years’ presidential election we have an intense candidate with very radical views, and if you don 't know who I’m talking about you should probably move from the rock you are living under. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has gained a immense popularity amongst not only the American public but Internationally as well. His chauvinist rhetoric, egotistical outlook, and how he continuously fabricates lies upon lies has truly brought him into the public eye. Hearing Trumps incredibly horrifying agenda makes me proud to admit that I am a Democrat, a solid liberal to be exact. As a solid liberal I believe in the power of the people and that means all people.Whether you are rich, poor, black, white, gay, or straight building and creating a nation that caters to people inherently means doing right by the economy and when we do well for the economy we do well for everyone.
election she grew to believe that Wilkie had betrayed his own values, and consequently hers, in his pursuit of victory. She left that experience disillusioned and distrustful of "those who called themselves conservatives and supporters of capitalism" (Gladstein 11).

This was similar to England at the time because of the overwhelming presence of one strict religion. Many found that More was recommending modifications to religion while others thought his writings of religion were fantasy just like the rest of the book. One thing is for certain, it made people think.
