Argumentative Speech Trump

949 Words4 Pages

Argumentative Essay Peter Baker is not only an author of many books but he also is a columnist for the new york times. Mr. Baker tends to focus on one thing when he is writing, and that is politics and with that is Donald Trump. Baker has written many articles on this president but i am only going to give my point of view on three of them, “Trump Says His ‘Nuclear Button’ Is ‘Much Bigger’ Than North Korea’s”, “Trump, Defending His Mental Fitness, Says He’s a ‘Very Stable Genius’”, and “Souring World Views of Trump Open Doors for China and Russia”. Throughout all three of these articles there is but one thing in common, the bashing of trump. All these articles just point out all the bad things that trump has done during his term as president so far. Don't get me wrong there is a lot of things that trump has done that i don't exactly agree with but there is some things that he has done that we as a country benefited from, but that is just …show more content…

Baker makes trump seem ill minded in here and i completely agree with him. This is because throughout this whole column baker just uses quote after quote straight from trump's mouth, or should i say his twitter feed, about what he thinks of himself. One quote from trump that really got to me was that he was a “VERY successful businessman” and television star who won the presidency on his first try. “I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius....and a very stable genius at that!” If baker was trying to point out that trump was not very intelligent in this article, which in my opinion that is what he is doing, he nailed it right on the head with just that quote. I say this because baker pointed out that trump thinks he makes a good and smart president just because he was the host of a reality television show eleven years

  • David Fallows Ethos Pathos Logos

    536 Words  | 3 Pages

    After intriguing the audience and establishing his credibility, Fallows starts to mainly criticize Trump’s twitter post with his bullet pointed ideas, and appeal to logos. One characteristic of a truly smart person observed by Fallows is that “virtually none [of those smart people] say” they’re smart, which directly contradicts to Trump’s public tweet where he claimed that he “would qualify as not smart, but genius.” With the image of the twitter post on the side of the text and the criteria bullet-pointed, readers can clearly see this contradiction, and recognize that Trump doesn’t possess the qualifying characteristics or behaviors to be considered as a “genius.” Since Fallows’ credibility was previously established, the audience will trust

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of Trump Kills Immigration Compromise

    686 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Editorial Board of The New York Times article Trump Kills Immigration Compromise is an ineffective and unsound argument. The article is centered around the Senate's debate on immigration and the Democrats and Republicans proposals for immigration laws. This creates kairos because this is a current debate and makes the argument relevant, but there is a lack of conciliatory language which is paired with the absence of evidence. This makes it so there is no warrant to support their claim that Donald Trump does not care about fixing our immigration problem as longs as he can use it for his political gain. Also, this impacts the logos and ethos and generates an ineffective and unsound argument.

His public interactions have split the country into those who categorize themselves as the “silent majority” and those who react with complete dismay toward his radical propositions. But are Trump supporters really the “silent majority”, or are the voices of Conservatives “being amplified beyond all reason” (Dionne)? In E.J. Dionne Jr.’s editorial titled “Don’t Fall for the Media Distortion about Trump”, the popularity of Trump is questioned and analyzed based on the media’s portrayal of his political race.

  • Trump Campaign Rhetoric

    819 Words  | 4 Pages

    Trump took the role of the victim and dismantled the immigration system in the name of a slogan: “Make America Great Again.” This is his ideology; his constituency chooses to analyze the issue of immigration through this lense rather than grappling with the issue as a whole, asking critical questions, and determining the best solution. This cycle occurs because people live in a myth of sacrifice, wherein individuals are spiteful because of their mimetic desires. Mimetic rivalry inspires violence which motivates people to unify and blame a scapegoat.

Friedman supports his position by providing evidence on the mishaps of the G.O.P and using his personal experience as credible evidence; he also utilises data that he words into a sarcastic and incendiary tone which provokes anger and irritation towards Trump and the G.O.P from his readers.
