The candidate that I have chosen is the latest and to my belief the most interesting to study and witness, I have chosen the current president, President Trump as my essay topic. As follows I will state the reasons in which I think he won the White House. I would to state before this I'm very bias to one side of the aisle and have very strong feeling towards my candidate as I'm sure this essay will show. First, the demographics that then candidate Trump pursued. White-working class, through the campaign candidate Trump often state that the working class was suffering severely under then President Obama and that would be the same with Hilary Clinton as president would the very same if not worst. Candidate Trump's constant trips though the Rustbelt and Midwest states that he heavy sot the so-called Reagan democrats and union works. As many people believed that the current administration was not doing it's job to help nurture …show more content…
In candidate's Trumps many many campaign rallies he would often say if he was elected there would be "Jobs Jobs Jobs" and that America would win again. Being a billionaire with billions in the bank one would think he would be disliked maybe even hated by the middle class and lower classes, but I have found that he found he's strongest support in the middle class. Though the campaign many called him a blue-collied billionaire and a champion of the working class, many people would say that he had to be a smart man to make himself billionaire even with the "small" loan of a million dollars. While not relevant to the campaign President Trump's winning of the almost all of the Rustbelt, with the most surprising being President Trump's win in the key swing state of Pennsylvania. And so the bastions of industrial-era Democratic strength among white working-class voters fell to Mr. Trump; so did many of the areas where President Obama had better showings in 2008 and
The election of 1860 and 2016 divided our country. There are some similarities and differences, but both elections had the same effect. Each point in time had problems, and each candidate had a different point of view on how to solve these problems. The people who are voting for our future president need to have some background information, so that’s what I’m going to give to you. Hopefully after reading this, you will be sure the person you’re voting for is right for the country.
In the feature article “Trump a Blue-Collar Hero? Ask in a Blue-Collar Town”, Richard Fausset demonstrates an argument that arose in Youngstown between two men-colleagues when one of them found out that his friend is going to vote for Donald J. Trump but in spite of the fact that fellow was defending Mr. Trump the whole time. This is how emerged a question whether Mr. Trump should be a voice in a blue-collar town where a shrinking population and unemployment prevails. Along with critics about Youngstown, the writer narrates: “There is also a widespread belief that Mr. Trump is right when he says that the United States must renegotiate the terms of its trade with the world.” The writer also mentions the reason why musician Bruce Springsteen
The most recent presidential election has been one of the most dividing in the history of America. While President Trump won the electoral vote, Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, creating a divide in workplaces, schools, and many other public places. The greatest challenges that the President will need to address first are the unity of Americans for the acceptance of all people and the education of young people, as they are the future of our nation.
I think there were many things that played in the role of Trump winning and the number one I believe was that the so called “Reagan Democrats” made another large appearance from Michigan and the midwest. Trump highly concentrated his efforts in those rural areas and reached out to those american people who lost their job to foreign trade due to trade deals, which he was fighting against through his whole campaign. Like Trump, Reagan was a bit of an odd candidate since the majority of the country was used to seeing him on their tv and movies, but he related to the people. Even though Trump was outlandish and had some cruel things to say about minorities and was a bit cocky, he still related to these everyday less political people and spiked
My topic is “can Donald Trump actually become president?” I’m finding the presidential race this year really interesting and he is a candidate that is doing much better than most people thought possible. I really wonder if there’s a chance this guy could win.
Kristof opens the article with a question, “What happens when the people of a great nation gradually realize that their leader may not be, er, quite right in the head?” Which is answered with the use of evidence throughout the article, that culminates in his thesis in the final paragraph, “The lesson is that Rome was able to inoculate itself against unstable rulers so that it could recover and rise to new glories. The subject that he writes about is controversial, even though anything political causes controversy because there are always multiple stances when it comes to an issue like this. This debate at its core is about whether Donald Trump is a good president or not, which of course is a very important political issue. Multiple reasons
To be completely honest, I had chosen George W. Bush because of his reputation and the bad things I've heard. With this being said, during his time he was looked down on for using false information to enter Afghanistan. In result of this, the Iraq War began. Despite all this he was still re elected to office in 2004. So if really thought about we'd have to assume that Bush couldn't have been that bad if he was elected for a second term. Although he did invade Afghanistan, he did pull America through a tough time. 9/11 was a very tragic incident for the U.S that killed thousands of innocent people. In conclusion Bush might have been looked at as a jerk or misunderstood. But he pulled a nation that was torn apart back
This election, many people see a solution to this problem through Donald Trump’s political campaign on a platform of “Make America Great Again”. Trump is running, creating new jobs and improving the economy, which appeals to many people who are in the lower and middle classes who have been left behind by economic inequality. Trump’s largest base of support comes from white Americans who do not have a high school degree. This group usually has a very small income, if any at all, because they are less educated. In contrast, those with a college degree have a much easier experience finding work out of college. This means that those without a high school diploma are looking for economic change in order to gain an advantage and proceed with their economic pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness. Other groups with large support for Trump are people with mobile homes and “old economy jobs” which are, similarly, groups with lower incomes. Trump appeals to these groups such as the “old economy jobs” because they are losing their jobs as new technology emerges. As “old economy jobs” decline, the demand for new jobs increase; the creation of which Donald Trump endorses. Donald Trump is definitely not a traditional conservative, but he has the ability to attract these groups with his platform through his populist appeal. Thus, a person who is lower in the economic gap would lean towards a candidate such as
In the article, Trump stirs outrage after he lashes out at the Muslim parents of a dead U.S. soldier, by Jose A. DelReal and Anne Gearan, it summarizes that Donald Trump does not have what it is to be a president. Most of this has come from the fact that because his actions stirred commotions amongst the press and caused for people to think he does not have the qualities such as compassion to be president. Other people even went on to say that what he says is not even normal and worthy of saying that he has no redeemable qualities. As a result, from this event, a man named Khizr Khan talked back in opposition against Trump in his ideals about Muslims and immigrants. Afterwards, Trump gained an overwhelming amount of backlash from this and he
Trump’s win was mainly because he appealed more with white working class voters in the Pennsylvania and the Midwest. Trumps speeches where very relatable to these voters. No matter what he spoke on. Whether it was on hoe America trades and spends money outside the U.S versus spending our money with our people, Hillary’s venal actions within her
With his continuous loss against his presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump did something that would be considered unpredictable for amongst Republican presidential nominees. Donald Trump openly ask for the votes of those who live in the inner cities, in his speech in Milwaukee Trump attacked the democratic party, some might say effectively too. With his speech Trump explained how the democratic party has been taking the votes of inner city people for granted. He even stated “Hillary Clinton-backed policies are responsible for the problems in the inner cities today, and a vote for her is a vote for another generation of poverty, high crime and lost opportunities,” and with reason too he stated that the Democratic party policies
The next aspect to tackle is how he is currently working for his constituency. First, we should identify his constituency as mostly lower socioeconomic class white people from the mid-west and south. He had a twelve point advantage with males--almost twice Romney’s 2012 seven point advantage--, a twenty one point advantage with whites. Additionally, the less education an individual has, the more likely they voted for Trump as he had a 39 point advantage with white voters who had some college or less. Conversely, the younger a voter is, the less likely they are to vote for Trump seeing as he only has an 8 point advantage and Democrats have an 8 point advantage, more than double the Republican’s percentage (Tyson and Maniam, 2016). The groups
I try to learn from the past, but i plan for the future by focusing exclusively on the present, that’s where the fun is. Donald Trump said this. He is going to be a good president because he is used to the high level of command. He is serious about his country. He is going to pay more attention to who is let into the country and eradicate isis. Theses are things that need to be done to help our country. Yes he has some problems like how blunt he is. Yet people need to face what he is trying to do. He has to be serious so we can see what our problems are and where we stand as a country. He is smart look at how he won the election. He was more interested in the states that got him electoral votes that's what beat Hillary. He will be a good president,
The growing economic disparity of American citizens, the 08 recession, unemployment and the looming threat of terror from foreign bodies created the perfect environment for a man like Trump to thrive. This with coupled with policies that seemed to send jobs and hire people that were not American led to more fear and anger. When Trump went up on stage he channeled the voices of those people similar to Hitler, Trump painted a red x on current government making it a target for why America was suffering. He went on to insinuate that the cause for crime and other problems in America was due to Similar to the bad peace deal that Germany signed at the end of World War I. Trump followed in the same footsteps speaking out against unfair trade deals and agreements that were jeopardizing Americans livelihoods. As the 2016 campaign waged on, Trump used tactics almost identical to that of Hitler's used when people spoke out against him he would retaliate by bashed any and everyone who would dare speak against him even attacking the president.
"Grab them by the pussy!" Donald J. Trump, the newly elected president of the United States is known for his demeaning remarks against women and Latin American immigrants. Many people believe that anyone who oversteps the boundaries of good taste and manner is unfit to be a leader in a company or any organisation. However, proper manners are not what make a company successful. A leader cannot care about every opinion if he bring his or his organization's agenda forward.
