Donald Trump's Tactics

As young adults we are all aware of the camping’s that has been occurring through out the past few months. One of those participants happens to be Donald Trump, who follows the theory of CONFLICT. This theory describes how power from individuals is self-proclaimed. Trump is well known for the many assumptions he has made toward immigrants, primarily Hispanics and Asians. His view on these racial groups demonstrates his consideration toward social life and how it is a competition.

What is more distressing than watching the media become spectators instead of doing their job of asking hard hitting questions or correcting the inaccuracies that form the basis of Mr. Trump’s campaign, is listening to their so-called analysis of why he has become popular and leading the polls among other Republican candidates. The current narrative is that he has

The 2016 political campaign has shown a series of debates and commentaries that tend to show the different personalities or character of each candidate: Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Each candidate has his or her own rhetoric way in trying to grasp an individual’s vote. Hillary, for example, uses her role as a woman to try to convince women that she’s on their side. Donald Trump, on the other hand, uses the fact that he’s a business man to try to assure constituents that he has a plan to lower the national debt; though, that is not all Trump does to get the public’s attention.

In previous elections, presidential candidates have marketed themselves with reputational capital, expressive rhetoric, and catchy slogans to capture an audience, until Donald Trump. Unlike Hillary and her decades of political credibility, Donald relied on his brand name from the multiple Trump hotels and television show, The Apprentice, to achieve marketing recognition among the American people–an unprecedented tactic to be used by a president (Washington Post). Beyond this brand, Trump ushered along his blunt and controversial character–atypical politician attributes–to attract the white-working class in the Midwestern states who found most presidents to ignore their needs. Whether he is featured on broadcasts, debates, or advertisements, Trump uses his loud and energetic personality to preserve people’s focus with short, yet sharp phrasing (Washington Post). For example, “We can’t live like this. It’s gonna get worse and worse. You’re going to have more World Trade Centers. It’s gonna get worse and worse. We can be politically

Every election is always different from another, but there are two specific characteristics about every candidate that participates. That is, the candidates being a manipulator or defender of the people. In which republican Donald Trump chose to be a manipulator during this 2016 presidency election. Trump manipulates the people through redefined legitimacy, intimidating his opponents, and creates a sense of inevitable

Extrinsic motivation was implemented by both Clinton and Trump during the debate due to incentives. Extrinsic motivation occurs when a person is presented with a stimulus originating from the environment, and sequentially responds to it by completing tasks necessary to achieve the stimulus. Incentives are the stimuli that encourage the pursuit of extrinsic motivation. Donald Trump, for instance, knew that in order to achieve more support in the form of votes from his dwindling Republican backing, he had to make a statement that included that he would assign a new Justice to the Supreme Court who had many views in common with the Republican Party. This Justice, he proclaimed, should be against abortion, and should strive to strengthen the

In the past election people are concerned. Other people are concerned about education. They are concerned about what’s gonna happen about freedom. Most people are concerned on why he wants to build walls. My family is concerned about immigration, why it could be a problem, and i have a different solution.

After a very long campaign, Donald Trump is now the President Elect of The United States. In the early days of his campaign, a lot of people, including other candidates, thought of him as a total joke. However, to most people’s surprise, he somehow won the republican nomination, and then even more surprisingly, he won the general election. The question “How did he win?” is being asked by just about every American, currently. There is no simple answer to why or how he won. However, most likely he won because he had the three Ms, money, media, and momentum.

The presidential election of 2016 shocked people across America after Donald Trump won the election. Many people questioned how such a candidate could run for office, much less hold one of the most powerful positions on Earth. In attempting to uncover how Trump could be victorious in an electoral race against Hillary Clinton, this paper will analyze four key factors in a general election: the fundamentals, campaigns, the media, and the voters. Each factor provides insight on how Trump was able to be successful in his pursuit of the presidency, but they do not begin to tell the complete tale.

“Over the years, [Donald] Trump honed a performer’s ear for the needs of his audience.” (Osnos). New Yorker Evan Osnos writes this is his article on presidential candidate Donald Trump to serve as an indicator on why Trump has been exceedingly effective in capturing a sizable fragment of right-wing support in his pursuit in become the republican nominee for this upcoming 2016 presidential election. Trump’s unforeseen success comes at the bewilderment of the Republican Party as they potentially would have to put all their resources behind him if he indeed becomes the nominee. Trump’s ascension has being very revealing on how the American political system currently works in accessing presidential candidates and what effect a party can have

Many of the psychology principles discussed in the article expound upon the way Donald Trump won the presidency by using group mentalities. Several points made throughout the text denote a powerful mindset and a theatrical sense of campaigning. The article makes several mentions of attire, personality, and Trump’s ability to unite with the American public. There are many different ways that the article assesses Trump’s win and group psychology principles; like, the references of similarities to past political regimes, the compelling sense of identity sharing found while campaigning, Trump’s calculated attire and personal presentation, and the way this candidate was able to create a sense of “we”.

A million people could arrive with each different descriptions on what ‘great’ means to them, the word is clear, and the probabilities are that people will fail to recall anyone else’s promises, as no one else made it as clear. This method is used by advertisers all over the world, to get a mental ‘position’. Examples such as the quickest collage degree, the sharp tool, fastest service. Rather than the most dull tool or the longest college degree. Donald trump has demonstrated a powerful ‘why’ along with his authority. As advertisers knows the significance of a good spokesperson with authority can hold, examples could be that Tiger Wood doesn’t know more about watches and cars than anyone else, either Tiger Wood is an expert on management consulting firms, but lots of successful business people went to Accenture, because he endorsed them and is responsible for selling lots of then because of the authority he has as a celebrity, the same thing Donald Trump doing by spending his career building his authority status as a leader, negotiator and a billionaire. As he uses his experience gained from his authority status, Donald Trump’s campaign is a marvel of modern marketing. However, this method of campaigning would collapse if he found himself in the second place of the election poll. Due to he’s campaign is not supported by solid foundation of rational, achievable and desirable

As the heuristics can influence decisions positively or negatively, many politicians have taken this as an opportunity to be able to influence the public’s decisions on multiples aspects regarding their vote and current countries status. Using the representative heuristic to try to represent each case by its class, as you show the public one video of a certain aspect and they will create conclusions based on this representation they have seen. Politicians use this as a way to create a bias towards a certain group of people such as the Muslims due to the terrorist attacks across the world.

This will influence people voting for him as they have the urgency to get these certain types of people out of this country.

Trump's campaign might look controversial but from the marketing perspective he cleverly stimulated voter's psychological drive to influence his target
