On November 8, 2016 the US election took place. The two front runners, the Democratic nominee Hilary Clinton and the Republican nominee, Donald Trump went neck to neck in the presidential race. On this frightening night, millions of people watched America’s worst nightmare unfold right in front of their own eyes. Donald J. Trump the islamophobic, xenophobic, misogynistic, homophobic, sexist, racist bigot defeated Hilary Clinton and became the 45th President of the United States of America. Donald Trump shouldn’t have even been nominated to run for president. The United States of America is the most powerful western country. The future of this country now lies in the hands of an idiotic, hot headed man who has no political background for next four years. There is only one possible outcome of this situation, the downfall of America. Not only will this affect the 318 million people living in America but potentially every country that has ties with it too, including Canada. Brace yourself for the incoming years disaster is destined happen. …show more content…
The answer to this question is quite simple, fear. Fear consumed the minds of uneducated Americans. Donald Trump put on this persona that he was some type of savior. That he was going to save America and “make it great again”. We are in a time where people of different races, ethnicities, and religions live together in some extent of equality despite our differences. A certain demographic of Americans fears minorities succeeding and moving forward despite history. I like to refer to this demographic as white supremacist. They want to go back to a time of slavery, segregation, and racism. Times were the white man was superior to those of all other
The New York Times columnist David Brooks calls it “the greatest political shock of our lifetime.” At the end of August, it seemed as though Donald Trump was destined to fail in his bid to become the 45th President of the United States. After months of new revelations of sexual harassments and use of vulgar language, spectators of the political sport were almost certain that Secretary Clinton would win, and then that fateful day came. Everyone, including some of Donald Trump’s most ardent supporters were shocked at the outcome of the election, leaving many to ask how such a thing could happen. While still shocking, ideas and concepts learned in the Election the President seminar have helped to explain the process, the results, and even the candidates themselves.
November 8, 2016. As the clock ticked from day to dust, the American population sat down to the conclusion of the forty fifth presidential election. Within moments, the fate of the nation was broadcasted into the homes and hearts of millions. For the some, the results of the election bought upon a sense of joy and excitement. However, for the other half of America’s citizens, hearing the call for Trump to presidency emitted feelings of sadness, disappointment, and above all else, confusion. How did a multi-billionaire businessman defeat a former First Lady of the United States and Secretary of State to become the president on the United States? In fact, how did a man of such little constitutional knowledge obtain the amount of political attention
April 2015 was the year Donald Trump, the Republican, announced to the public his serious interest in joining the 2016 presidency election. Trump 's highest interest is immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, and states they are "criminals.” He blames the race of Mexicans of robbing Americans jobs, and treating Americans like babies (Miller, n.pag.). What he does not know, is that not all Mexicans are "criminals," and we are not robbing Americans ' jobs. Most of us come to United States to work our hardest, and get a better job. Trump not only is he a racist, but he also has made many unprofessional actions and decisions. We should not be voting for Donald Trump because his ruthless actions against immigrants are strongly affecting our society and segregating most races within each other. He can be a dangerous future president who is carelessly choosing between the white American and Mexican.Trump shows a high interest in segregation among all races and blames most of the unemployed by allowing Mexicans to “take over”.
In November 2016, Donald Trump was elected president of the United States. With a campaign centered around otherization and nationalism, the atmosphere of this election, as well as the attitudes of the citizens of the country, bears similarities to 1930s Nazi Germany. While it may initially seem far-fetched to compare Donald Trump 's election to Adolf Hitler 's rise to power, both campaigns utilize nationalistic, racist sentiment and a fear of the "foreign other" to gain power within the country. Moreover, both campaigns utilize propaganda and the media in their own way to generate hatred and fear to further their own goals. I will argue that these tactics used by Donald Trump has inspired numerous acts of hatred, and that any person who is not a white male has a reason to fear Trump 's presidency.
Politics is a dirty, challenging game. There are two different political parties in the United States: Democrats and Republicans. This election year, 2016, both parties’ candidates are starting to campaign and debate to see who will be president. The Republican presidential candidates are a joke this election, the top three people in the Republican polls now have never held a government office, and the one in the lead is one of the worst human beings in the United States. Donald Trump would be the worst president ever because he doesn’t interact well with other skin colors, he doesn’t interact with people with his own skin color with any form politeness, and he would drive america into more debt.
The first reason Donald Trump should not build a wall is because it will not stop anyone from crossing it. President Donald Trump appears to have inadvertently admitted that the wall he wants to build on the border with Mexico will not prevent the flow of illegal drugs into the United States. Boehm, Eric introduces “ President Donald Trump appears to have inadvertently admitted that the wall he wants to build on the border with Mexico will not prevent the flow of illegal drugs into the United States.
One day, a simple man firmly stood up for his rights, fro freedom; stood up for his community, opened his heart to an entire nation and showed his dream: “I have a dream!"-Dr. Martin Luther King exclaimed down the symbolic shadow of a man whose dream was similar, to achieve one main goal, a united country, a real United States of America. Today, after almost 60 years, this dream is in danger due to a man that wants to create barriers between this great nation and the entire world, the magnate Donald Trump. I’m inclined to believe that the decisions of the Americans this 8th of November will not affect only their country, all humanity. “Imagine the images on the screen flashed around the world as we were dragging parents away from their children,
These past few months, America has been in a great state of turmoil due to one of the most controversial presidential elections in history, the outcome of which has left the country divided with the question of whether the surprise presidential elect, Donald Trump, is actually fit to be president. He is one of the only people in this nation’s history that has managed to become the presidential elect without being a career politician or having any background experience in that area, and that alone deserves at least a little bit of recognition. For as long as anyone can remember this country has been ran by politicians who have time and time again disappointed the American people. The huge amount of distrust that has built up over the years is why the people began to demand a change and chose a man with no real experience. He is brash and outspoken, yet the formality is just one example of the many changes that are going to begin. While there has been a lot of debate over whether or not presidential elect Donald Trump is fit for office there are positive points to his election such as his views on imposing congressional term limits, bringing jobs back from overseas, as well as his stance on immigration and Obama Care.
Donald Trump should not be our next president. Donald Trump does not know when to be silent. He does not know how to talk to foreign countries. He does not have any experience about being a president. It seems like people just like him because he talks loud with no filter and like to attack the political system. He does not believe Obama care helps people.
For the past several months, President Donald Trump has made it clear that he is not a big fan of the media. Journalists have been dealing with constant backlash from the President, who claim that journalists report fake news, or withhold news from Americans. Although present day journalists deal with this everyday, how do future journalists, currently in school, feel about this? What are they going to do when they enter the workforce as journalists in a few short years? Find out in my commentary piece on how journalism students are more motivated than ever to prove Donald Trump wrong. My piece is free, and timely since Trump has been continuously calling the media fake via Twitter and speeches.

As a business mogul, Donald Trump excels at manipulation in investment. He has made business deals with several political leaders, mixing business and politics like never before. One wrong move, and the entire infrastructure will collapse. He will have to maintain stable relationships with each leader: a task seemingly impossible based upon his prior reputation with stability and the extent of his business relationships. While business leaders love Donald Trump, the traditional political leaders of the world, in Europe especially, cannot stand him. British newspapers urge American voters not to vote for Donald Trump. If America loses their main ally, they will have no protection in a time of war; which is very possible considering the volatile situation with the terrorist group,
Although his victory was considered unlikely by pre-election forecasts, by early morning November 9, 2016, Donald J Trump was projected to obtain over 270 electoral votes, making him the new president elect of the United States. The election was described by news organizations as a complete “shock”, with the New York Times calling it a “once-unimaginable scenario.” Donald Trump will be the first president in history to have been elected without any prior experience in public service. There are many that are genuinely afraid of Trump – in fact, according to exit polls, 92% of Hillary Clinton voters and more than a third of Americans claimed they would be “frightened” of a Trump presidency; this is partly due to the controversial, harsh, and racially charged language Trump consistently used during his campaign that upset much of mainstream politics. Donald Trump is expected to take office on January 20th, 2017, becoming the president of the United States and arguably the most powerful man in the world. Now, not only are the people of the United States can only wait and anticipate what will happen under the Trump presidency. But unknown to many, Trump being elected as the 45th president of the United States will have great consequences on racial tensions and discrimination in society and politics, even Trump were to not pass any laws. This is because, according to
If Donald Trump is president he will turn this world from good to bad. My support for Donald Trumps actions, well lets just say I do not support Donald Trump at all. I have read all over the news that Donald Trump thinks all the kids with disabilities is a joke. If Trump gets president I will be ashamed of this world. Unless he stops thinking like a two year old. What would this world be if Donald Trump became president? That I don’t know but I hope he changes his act. I think the safest route is just to make Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton the next
Donald Trump was elected president of the United States of America on November 8th, 2016, and now has been running our country for over a year. As Trump’s first year in office slowly began, his reputation seems to be creating different outside views of our nation and arguments started producing everywhere. After competing with Hillary Clinton for the presidential term in office, Trump defeated her along with her democratic supporters causing one of the most shocking elections in U.S. history. Using public media web pages, we are reviewing both sides of the argument regarding Trump’s election and we are going to decipher why each arguer supports their side, and why each side is reasonable for the benefit of our country.
The 2016 Presidential Election has been one of the most bewildering experiences of my lifetime, but also, possibly the most telling event of where the average American voter’s values lie and the extent of our social progression. Personally, I, like many political scientists, educated scholars, politicians, celebrity figures, stand-up comics, preteens on twitter, optimists, and the entirely of the modern liberal media, truly believed Hillary Clinton would become our 45th, and 1st woman, president, but that did not seem to be the case. Donald J. Trump has won the 2016 Presidential Election, and I think i speak for all of us when I say: I am stoked. This shocking turn of events, which seems to defy political polls, statistical analysis, historical and governmental patterns, mathematics, and, frankly, common sense, has deemed my hypothesis to be incorrect, and like Hillary Clinton conceded the election, I concede my prediction, but as clearly demonstrated, not my opinion. I digress; the results of this election have reasoning behind them. Donald Trump won with 290 electoral votes in comparison with Hillary’s 232 votes, even thought Hillary won the popular vote (47.9% to 47.1%). 55.4% of eligible voters participated in this year’s election, with 26.5% of eligible voters siding with Hillary and 26.3% voting for Trump. The voter turnout this year has fallen in correspondence with the last two decades in regards to presidential election; a significant amount of Americans abstained
