Donald Trump Rhetorical Analysis

Texas senator, Ted Cruz, won Iowa’s caucus vote for the Republican’s presidential race. Ted Cruz is in strong opposition in what Obama has done and has rallied voters who agree with him. His campaign promises to defend against terrorism and repeal Obama’s healthcare program. Many other candidates found it difficult to get a caucus vote and have decided to drop out of the presidential race. Former Arkansas governor, Mike Huckabee, dropped out of the race. Many of the other governors barely got support according to the recent Iowa

All people make mistakes, but some people are never allowed to forget theirs. A man attacked, harassed, and belittled by media outlets with a personal vendetta against him for his prior claims that they broadcast fake news. This is the image of Donald J. Trump portrayed by my political cartoon for part two of my genre remix. Based off of my project two analysis of the effectiveness of Donald Trump’s rhetoric in his 2016 Phoenix campaign speech based on Lloyd Bitzer’s model of the rhetorical situation, my political cartoon focuses on the same man, but an entirely new exigence and audience, with a new load of constraints.

“I am proposing a new foreign policy focused on advancing America’s core national interests, promoting regional stability, and producing an easing of tensions in the world”. Donald Trump words generate the idea that he is dedicated to bring success to America. Trump attempts to persuade the American people through assumptions and opinions. However, one thing that is hindering him from reaching his goal, is his speech on National Security in Philadelphia, and how it’s not logically convincing. Throughout this essay, multiple instances will be discussed, and most importantly prove the fact, why his speech was not logically convincing.

I am writing a potential victory speech for Donald Trump’s presidential race. I’m interested in this area of topic because of how Donald Trump manages to gain thousands of supporters, even with his flawed and both morally and ethically wrong views. The is created from the combination of all the previous speeches that Donald Trump delivered ( the tone, the content, and structure of the speech). It is quite easy to predict what he will say and he does not follow any formal speech structures. For example, he will insult an individual or a group and its beliefs, and jump from place to place. This speech also explores the impact of political incorrectness by Donald Trump, his use of ‘fifth-grade vocabulary’ that contains many racist and sexist comments.

Donald Trump, a once controversial political candidate, gave his 2017 Inaugural address on January 20th, 2017 when he was inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States. Through appeals such as syntax and diction, religion and patriotism, and logic, Donald Trump was able to generate a unifying speech toward his audience. Amidst the growing violence and repercussions of the 2016 election, Donald Trump, in his 2017 Inaugural address, sends the message that he will put America and its citizens first to unite the country and change America for the better.

Donald Trump delivered a speech in Cleveland, Ohio, on July 21, 2016 upon his nomination as the Republican presidential candidate at the Republican National Convention. In the speech, Trump discussed domestic crime and violence; illegal immigration; and American foreign relations, among other topics. Trump’s speech is persuasive and its purpose is to put forth ideas that support his political agenda as a prospective president. Trump’s speech at the RNC had many similarities to Former President of the United States Richard Nixon’s address accepting his nomination at the 1968 Republican National Convention in 1968. The inspiration, in part, behind Donald Trump’s speech at the RNC was Nixon’s speech, and his borrowing from the speech is evident throughout the address in his use of similar talking points and appealing to fear.

Inauguration day marks a new beginning. Every four years, Americans officially welcome a new president. Each president has to address the plans, goals and ideas for the future. Therefore, the inaugural speech is meant to be an emotional and hopeful ceremony for all Americans. The inaugural speech sets the tone for the president’s first weeks in the white house. Ideally this speech will encourage those who voted to believe and trust that the right leader is in the office. On January 20, 2017 Donald Trump gave his inaugural speech and through the use of hyperboles, repetitions, and metaphors he aimed to unify the nation and give hope for the future.

Trump begins his speech by rallying the public using “we” as a constant reminder of our universal bond of being U.S. citizens. By using a group mentality, Trump is able to successfully use ethos to invoke a response for the “group” – the United States citizens. In order for Trump to gain the public’s approval, he must first make everyone feel connected with him. For instance, in one of Trump’s opening lines, he attempts to create a crowd frame of mind by saying, “Our country is in serious trouble. We don’t have victories anymore. We used to have victories, but we don’t have them” (Donald Trump Transcript: ‘Our Country Needs a Truly Great Leader). The individuals who wrote the speech for Trump did not say “we” and “our” by accident, their purpose was to persuade the public how Donald Trump – the multi-millionaire business tycoon– can be relatable to anyone in the crowd.

According to Donald Trump, “NFL players who protest anthem should be fired”. This all started with San Fran 49s quarterback, Colin Kaepernick, 13 months ago, that caught a lot of attention that also generated political storms after taking a knee during the national anthem. Kaepernick States he didn’t want “to stand up and show pride in a flag that oppresses black people and people of color”. This weekend trump decided to belittle all the players that kneeled with name calling [sons of bitches] and encouraging for them to be fired.

Donald Trump’s speech addressed to the United Nations General Assembly on September 19, 2017 was not effective. Despite the speech having a universal message that is hard to disagree with, you can tell exactly which parts of the speech were written by a speech writer, and which parts of the speech were written by Trump himself. This wouldn’t be an issue if Donald Trump’s inflections weren’t full of fallacies and unnecessary statistics. For example, in the third paragraph, President Trump tries to establish his Ethos by listing improvements in the United States since he took office. But many of these cherry-picked improvements have absolutely nothing to do with him being elected. They also have nothing to do with the general theme of the speech. This speech did have examples of effective rhetorical strategies. However, the bad far outweighs the good in this speech and takes away from the good message it originally had.

This article was mainly about Donald Trump passing a comment that the media is questioning about. "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters," Trump said at a campaign rally. This comment has left many media personas wondering what he meant by that comment. However, it is written in the article that Trump refused to clarify his comment. The article then goes on to mention about how Trump

My reaction to Trump's statement was dissatisfaction. When you read the statement, it seems as if he might actually be concerned. When you watch the statement, you hear the lack of empathy in his voice, the lack of emotion in general. My reaction to the situation itself was heartache. School shootings have become so normalized, which makes it even more tragic. The fact that the AR-15 used was purchased legally is disturbing. Donald Trump barely discusses what will be done to prevent this from happening again. He claims that schools will be made safer, but doesn't say how. Trump states that the "difficult issue of mental health" will be resolved. Is this man planning on curing my depression? What does he mean it will be tackled? Of course mental

The article mentions the story of Esteban Torres, a congressman whose father deported during the large-scale deportation between 1920 and 1950. The real focus is on the proposal of Donald Trump, which sees in the mass deportation an effective solution to illegal immigration. He seems to ignore the drama connected with the mass deportation of the last century. How can we forget those millions of fathers and mother who have been deported in Mexico, literally kidnapped from their families? Many of them were, also, American citizens. Trump has made the fight against the cornerstone of his program by stubbornly supporting a position, which appears abhorrent in the eyes of the most. Initially, I though it was just an absurd idea conceived to attract

Donald Trump once said, “You have to think anyway, so why not think big?” If you think about this quote, you will realize the true meaning behind this quote. This essay will provide a clear reflection of Donald Trump’s statement.

There has been a lot of talk about the 2016’s presidential candidates, and Donald Trump is the one leading the popularity poll. I do not agree with his views concerning immigration and the comments he has made on the Latino community are sickening. Frankly, I do not believe he will ever become President of The United States of America.
