Imagine someone getting attacked just because of how they look, the way they talk, or where they come from.When a new president is to be elected there is always some type of drama going on between both parties. This year though, the candidate for the republican party has been disrespectful to many races and handicap people. Many who follow him tend to think the same way they just never had a presidential candidate express their opinion like Trump does, so many were not motivated to act the way they act now. These Trump rallies tend to surprise many because of how much hate is seen towards everyone who has different views or is a different race than white at these rallies. Imagine passing by some of these rallies or a supporter and witness seeing them bash someone because of their …show more content…
On the one hand, some argue that former republican presidents never used the type of language Trump supporters or Donald Trump use. Stephanie Coontz stated in the article “As Status and Security Eroded, Rage Has Risen for Trump Supporters” that Donald trump has motivated racism and hatred among many. Many of the Trump supporters support him because they do not appreciate that other races and women are now starting to get payed more than white men. These supporters believe that Trump may be the solution for this. Coontz believes that Donald Trump has persuaded many negative things and instead of uniting the country it's falling apart.“Donald Trump has tapped into a deep vein of racism, nativism, and misogyny”(Coontz 1).Basically, Coontz is saying that Donald Trump has motivated his supporters to act the way they do because he, himself acts the same way. Similarly Robert P. Jones founding chief executive thinks the same way as
Trump has been recently trying to clear his image as being racist, attempting to be favored by a Black and Latino audience by stopping at urban centers where his key voters congregate. He has been calling media attention on any black voters, to help shed his tainted image and changed his view on immigration wanting only the “bad ones” to leave the country. He even made the point adamant that he is not trying to hurt people, making him seem more for the people then against. He has tried to put the point across that what do Latino and Black voters “have to lose” as they are facing terrible poverty. Although Trump is trying to appeal to black voters, he has declined appearing in front of the NAACP convention.
The comments — and many more since — have prompted an uproar among Latino groups and acrimonious breakups between Trump and various corporate partners. His outlandish rhetoric and skill at occupying the national spotlight are also proving to be dangerously toxic for the GOP brand, which remains in the rehabilitation stage after losing the 2012
In the presidential campaigns, candidates have been slandering each other and conflicting ideas. This has created a strong rivalry between the two main political parties. Some Democrats hate the Republican party and vice versa. Donald Trump has used a plethora of derogatory language to describe his opponents and any group he does not like (such as immigrants and Mexicans). The other candidates have done the same thing to each other, though arguably to a lesser degree.
The article states that fear has become a huge deal ever since the presidential elections divided the nation. The American President has bottled up fear within most minorities, especially in African Americans. The article suggests that Donald Trump’s focus was mainly on protecting confederate statues rather than protecting African-Americans and minorities from discrimination and violence.The author seemed to have gathered the information by completing a report on Donald Trump’s speech. The article was meant to be read by minorities who are being ignored by the president and to white Americans. This article is similar to the other article because they both describe the fear that is bottled up inside Americans, whether it is because of threats

One of the scariest things about Trump saying all these things is that there's so many people out there that think these things and when they see someone who's running for president, they feel like their opinion is validated. This causes increased racism and xenophobia amongst the population. This is dangerous because people also feel like they can also now act upon these things; for example someone may feel like it is okay to beat up a muslim because Trump, a presidential candidate, spoke openly of his racist opinion toward
The question to behold is, are Political Parties really representing who the American voters are? People oftentimes express that the people of their own political parties are not really giving a good image for the people of their own party. Hillary Clinton was supposed to represent the Democratic party for the 2017 election. With being such an admirable figure any mistake can be taken and a sign of being a liar, deceptive, and manipulative. Those who support her and her Political Party are perceived to be a lying, deceptive, manipulator, but that does not mean that her followers are. The same concept can be applied to Trump, oftentimes he is seen to have no filter, as a racist, and even sexist as well, and again the same thing can be said about Trump; just because he is viewed as that, that does not mean that his followers are the same
The recent election was full of hatred, and bashing the other side. The Ted talk says, “So this election is different. Donald Trump personally uses the word "disgust" a lot. He's very germ-sensitive, so disgust does matter a lot — more for him, that's something unique to him — but as we demonize each other more, and again, through the Manichaean worldview, the idea that the world is a battle between good and evil as this has been ramping up, we're more likely not just to say they're wrong or I don't like them, but we say they're evil, they're satanic, they're disgusting, they're revolting. And then we want nothing to do with them. And that's why I think we're seeing it, for example, on campus now.We're seeing more the urge to keep people off campus, silence them, keep them away. I'm afraid that this whole generation of young people, if their introduction to politics involves a lot of disgust, they're not going to want to be involved in politics as they get older.” This was definitely noticeable in the election this year. It seemed as though when things weren’t going Trump’s way, instead of trying to explain why his ideas were better than Hillary’s, he would just explain why she should be in jail, and almost harass her. Trump would also explain to the listeners how he thought Bill Clinton did an awful job as a president. That is exactly what political argument’s
November 2016 gave America its biggest political upset in decades, perhaps in the history of the nation. Donald Trump became the fifth President to lose the popular vote but somehow manage to win the presidential election. A billionaire businessman who spent most of his campaign bashing his opponents, facing allegations of sexual assault, insulting people with physical and mental handicaps, disputing allegations he was working with Russians to win the election, knocking prisoners of war because they disagreed with him, yelling about his opponent, Hillary Clinton and her alleged emails, supporting openly racist newspapers, news outlets and other organizations, and basically complaining, all of the time, no matter what was happening. He really managed to win. 2016 quite possibly held the ugliest and most upsetting presidential race in history, and will go down as such. Most of Trump’s voters were white and working class, uneducated, white men, (Thrush, White, Hughes, Ratner, Strauss, & Zeitz, 2016). His unraveled tweets, his perpetual television presence and mass rallies made him a hero to his class of voters. Now, 11 months into his Presidency, even those who voted for him avoid the news due to the continual, anxiety driven updates about which world leader our President has most recently upset. It is clear as glass Trump is affecting the moral of the entire country, Americans are more stressed in todays political climate than ever (Sifferlin, 2017) but who is really being affected by him, his administration, and his polices?
Donald Trump recently gave a speech discussing rising Radical Islamic Terrorism, immigration from the Middle East, and a need for a rise in national security while Manchester, New Hampshire on June 13th 2016. He centers his whole speech around discussing how bad a President his opponent, Hillary Clinton, would be in difficult times. Trump graduated from the Wharton School of Finance in 1968 with a bachelor 's degree in economics, and has become a very successful businessman. He’s the Republican nominee for this upcoming presidential election, and is a very controversial candidate and person. He has come under fire for many of his views that he discusses in his June 13th speech. While Trump does make some agreeably points, he renders his speech ineffective because of his heavy reliance on Clinton’s opinion to form his own. If Trump were to become President, his stance on important issues would need to be reached with careful consideration, and not just based on doing the opposite of his opponents.
The Way We Were is an American romantic drama that has been on since 1973. The film is starred by Barbra Streisand and Robert Redford and it is directed by Sydney Pollack. The screenplay is composed by Author Laurents and it was based on his college days at Cornel University and his experiences as a member of the House UN-American Activities committee activities.
His presidential campaign exuded a rhetoric that was incendiary and projected his opinionated viewpoint on various minorities and solidified his stance on them. Donald Trump has encouraged, normalised and even started prejudiced, biased and violent behaviour patterns
When Marc Anthony addressed the crowd of plebeians, he purposely and subliminally incited violence. As he spoke about the death and murderers of Julius Caesar, he claimed, “I fear I wrong the honorable men whose daggers have stabbed Caesar. I do fear it” (JC III.ii.152-153). By constantly mentioning that Brutus and Cassius were “honorable men,” Marc Anthony put forward the idea that maybe they weren’t as honorable as they claimed to be, since they killed the beloved Caesar for things he hadn’t committed. To persuade and manipulate weak minded and uneducated individuals such as the plebeians, Marc Anthony used Julius Caesar’s stab wounds as visual representation. After showing the crowd what the conspirators had physically done to Julius Caesar, he continued by telling them “good friends, sweet friends! Let me not stir you up to such a sudden flood of mutiny. They that have done this deed are honorable” (JC III.ii.211-213). Like Marc Anthony, Donald Trump also took advantage of people’s emotions and subliminally encouraged the use of violence against those who presented themselves as enemies and opposed their beliefs. Trump supporters and protesters would often clash at his rallies and instead of convincing his supports to stop participating in those kinds of behavior, he encouraged it. On February 1, 2016 at a rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, he told the crowd, “ if you see
Unless you have been living under a rock for the past two years, the United States of America has an election coming up on the eighth of November. This campaign has gotten ugly. There has been fighting, rioting, accusations of improper conduct, and a whole heap of other things between the two political parties. Some people would argue that our country is divided more now than ever in history. On the Democratic side, you have Senator Hillary Clinton. She has the motivation of becoming America’s first female president. Over on the Republican side, you have Donald Trump, a billionaire, real-estate mogul, businessman. These two candidates have two very different backgrounds. Hillary Clinton has been in the political arena since 1976. She was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2001 and was appointed as the U.S. Secretary of State in 2009. Donald Trump, on the other hand, has never held any kind of political office. He got into real-estate in 1971 and has since then made the Trump name synonymous with real-estate development. With their backgrounds being as different as they are, their personalities are just as different.
The Trumpism movement has influenced many people in several different ways, whether it being positive or negative to them. This is also another reason why this movement has came about. It has become a social reality in the world we live in today. It was something that many knew would come out as a way of life. One major reason why Trump was elected in office was because of his voting percentages. The majority of people that voted for him were white males. The majority of those males most likely did not have a college education. About 57 percent of those who voted for Donald Trump have had a high school education or less. Trumpism has caused lots of conflict and not only has social media conflicts happened, but more violent protests have
