Author Chris Cillizza writes a politics blog for The Washington Post and also David A. Fahrenthold covers congress for The Washington Post since year 2000 and other reputable journalistic source. In Chris Cillizza article, titled (“Winners and Loser from the sixth Republican presidential debate)”, published on the Washington Post addresses the topic of the seven leading candidates running for presidency but Cillizza picked the winners and losers of the debate and argues that the top three candidates who are likely to win have smart strategies that keeps them in the loop. For example Marco Rubio a democrat and Donald Trump a republican. Rubio’s winning streak is due to “political calculation” and also his political future is tied to the success of immigration bill---as a first term senator , his political future success is linked …show more content…
Fahrenthold article titled (“Seven candidates against the man who isn’t there)”-Donald Trump lack of participation in debates on FOX news tonight, David argues it could provide an opportunity for other candidates such as Ted Cruz or Ben Carson. His excessive confidence could lead to his downfall or victory. Both authors support their claim by providing counterintuitive statements in their articles, In Fahrenthold’s article he states that Donald trump not showing up could provide opportunities for other candidates but at the same time his absence might still influence the debate.In Cillizza’s article he primarily makes a list of the winners and losers in the present race but his thought might be a little biased due to its subjective tone, and finally both authors uses humour to connect to the reader, the humour used is to keep the reader engaged and releases tension. Cillizza and Fahrenthold’s purpose is to challenge and confront the reader and the candidates themselves by pointing out their weaknesses and ways for them they could improve, in order to provide the United states with a well equipped candidates/presidents for
In the wake of the death of Antonin Scalia, the Supreme Court Justice , Republican candidates had a debate and met in South Carolina for the 9th GOP debate.This debate mainly discussed what each candidate would do if they were to become president. During these debates, the candidates are given a chance to deliver their messages , and to help voters determine which candidate will be best as president. In the republican debate, each candidate was asked a question which they was expected to answer but somehow didn't appear to do so. While watching, I came to conclusion that some of the arguments were successful and others unsuccessful. In the first section of the debate when candidates Ben Carson, Donald
The title is At Republican Debate, Candidates Are Likely to Set Sights on Ted Cruz, written by Jonathan Martin and Maggie Haberman issued on December 14, 2015. Many controversial topics have defined the previous Republican debates with Donald Trump currently leading in the polls. This article characterizes possible tactics for the final Republican debate. The subject matter of this article deals with potential Republican presidential candidates. Candidates must attack Donald Trump if they want a chance of taking him over in the polls. Some facts are based on state reporting and opinions on debate tactics. The editor does attempt to appeal to his readers' emotions by highlighting voter's concerns and issues including terrorism,
This year’s presidential election has been riddled with controversy and drama. The two presidential nominees, Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump, each have questionable acts. As voting time approaches and the debates come to an end many individuals must decide who is fit to run the country. By considering their backgrounds, verifying the validity of their policies, and brining into consideration their performance in the debates, a suitable president should be found.
In the March 23,2016 The Washington Post, “The GOP-and its big funders-scramble to insulate Congress from Trump.” The author Matea Gold and Paul Kane explore how the Republican attempt to limit Trump’s controversial influence on the congressional race. The author also illuminate how the Democratic focus on Trump as an opportunity to threaten the GOP’s lead in the House and take the Senate for winning the Presidential Election. At the same time, The Republican shift focus from Trump to Congress. Republican and their donor are prevented the Senate and House candidates from the negative effect of Trump. Attacking Democratic for text rising becomes a key element of the remedy. The strategists of GOP hope their efforts will help inoculate congressional
Mair’s article is to convince the reader, actually convince would-be voters, that Mr. Trump and Mr. Trump alone is to blame for how ugly the 2016 Republican campaign has become, and for this reason is not worthy or qualified to be the Republican nominee. The underlying purpose of Mair is to keep the Republican establishment from seceding control of the Republican Party to an outsider, qualified or not. Simply put, those in power don’t want to lose that power. Republican insiders like Mair are fighting for their political livelihood and the power that comes from it. Mair writes this article in-the-face of the popular, non-establishment support Mr. Trump receives, and despite-the-fact that the Trump campaign has already defeated fourteen of the sixteen Republican candidates. No one expected Mr. Trump’s campaign to proceed this far, but then again, the media, political pundits, and political establishments that have been in control of their political messages did not anticipate a billionaire with deep-pockets and a loud-mouth to shake things up the way he did. The Trump campaign has created a political movement and has both the Republican and Democratic establishment worried about the future of politics in our country and their own future within that
The 12th GOP debate hosted by CNN is a crucial debate where the stakes are all on the line with two major winner take all key contests in Florida and Ohio on Tuesday. For Florida Senator Marco Rubio, its do or die. After a disappointing performance during Super Tuesday 2, coming out with no delegates and with pressure to drop out, Rubio switched his tactics to attack Trump on issues over his character (or manhood). Texas Senator Ted Cruz did the same, using the debate to showcase a two-man show over four. Ohio Governor John Kasich kept with the same positive routine he has done in previous debates.
The republican candidates for presidency, businessman Donald Trump, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, Florida Senator Marco Rubio, Texas Senator Ted Cruz, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, Ohio Governor John Kasich and former HP CEO Carly Fiorina all met in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for a debate hosted by the Fox Business channel. Debate topics range from immigration to Syria. Bush went after Trump, saying that to win, the GOP needs "practical" policies.
THESIS: Political framing, as used by presidential candidates in the 2016 election, may determine the outcome of an election rather than the actual qualifications or stance on issues of the candidates themselves.
“GOP ‘wall of shame’ on display inside Trump campaign HQ” presents a rather objective report about Donald Trump and his “wall of shame” inside his headquarters. This wall contains pictures of each of the candidates that dropped out of the presidential race, including the dates each of the candidates left. Unlike other reports on presidential candidates, this author took a more objective report, leaving as much of his personal bias out of the article as he possibly could. However, the author did not have a selective approach when writing this article, because he went from talking about the “wall of shame,” to Donald Trump’s desire of Kasich to drop out of the race, to Donald
The Republican Presidential Debate was, as always, an intriguing experience for its viewers. America has found itself in the odd position of having nine presidential candidates from the Republican Party. Leaving politics (mostly) aside, it became clear that most of these candidates rely on inspiring and capitalizing on the fears of their voters. This conclusion is drawn from the fact that these candidates are poor seemingly poor communicators. They are unfocused and unoriginal with their platforms. The only defining characteristics are their various levels of confidence, poise, and their body movements.
The debate for the election of our new president, for 2016, has been one of the most unbalanced political disputations in history. From having a wealthy businessman known for being famously irrational to a Jewish candidate being the first to be nominated in a presidential discussion, the 2016 presidential debate has certainly made history in our nation. From the first debate on August 6, 2015, held by the republicans in Cleveland, Ohio, I instantly had a perception that the 2016 debate was going to be a relentless altercation. Not only was talk spreading about the notorious republican candidate Donald Trump deciding that if he gets elected president, he will construct a wall to close off the illegal immigration of Mexicans; but, also many candidates, “were dropping like flies,” quoted by Sis Hargrove.
As we approach the final day of the US election, polls show vantage for Clinton, the representative of the democrat party over Trump, the representative of the republic party so far. FiveThirtyEight, Nate Silver 's predictions and polling data for the 2016 presidential election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, tells, 49.2% of the popular vote goes for Clinton and 44.5% of the popular vote goes for Trump. These popular votes conducted in November 2, 2016. Clinton and Trump are the only candidates who remained in the race in the final stages representing their parties after the other candidates lost chances in competition. They have completed all the three presidential election debates and they are about 1 week away from the final day of the US election. There are few states remained undecided about the future president. The undecided and changing states are the ones which will determine the wining candidate in the final day of the elections. My prediction for the US election result is that Clinton is going to win the race. The factors shape the election results are the campaign events, tactics and the media influence. In this paper, I am going to discuss how these two factors are contributing in Clinton campaign then I will propose a strategy for Trump to help him wining the race.
There are seven hopefuls who are likely going to formally announce their candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012, within the next week and many more who are contemplating a run. None of them invoke an emotional, if not polarizing response quite like “The Donald.” It is early yet, but the only Republican hopeful who has broken from the reserved, almost polite rhetoric of the early stump speeches in Iowa and New Hampshire, and the government-as-usual policy discussions on the Sunday media carousel, has been Donald Trump. By removing the shackles of political correctness and “media-speak,” Mr. Trump tossed a few verbal hand grenades into the throng of Obama-friendly, group-think media sycophants, who were waiting
As presidential candidate, Trump’s campaign has been plagued by controversy. His speeches and social media have drawn the attention of many new sources and the media. This attention is the source of the problem according to his vice presidential nominee, Mike Pence. During a meeting in Manchester, NH, Pence addressed his concern over the coverage that the words of Trump are receiving. He voices his annoyance that Donald Trump is picked apart by the media, while Clinton appears to be left unharmed. This assertion appeals to the Trump supporters who feel that Trump is fighting against a corrupt voting system, that will be nearly impossible to win against. This tactic is not unheard of in presidential, but normally occurs later in the race, not
For this week's article summary assignment, I chose an article from the Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2017/04/27/theres-no-speech-planned-but-protesters-are-converging-on-berkeley-today/?utm_term=.0937e69e52cb). It is titled "There was no Ann Coulter speech. But protestors did converge on Berkeley." The article was co-authored by Elizabeth Dwoskin, William Wan, and Susan Svrluga.
