  • Analysis Of White House Red Scare By Maureen Dowd

    421 Words  | 2 Pages

    Précis Response In the article "White House Red Scare" (7 January 2017), columnist Maureen Dowd affirms her current political opinion that the United States government is overridden with anxiety and bewilderment due to the callous and perhaps "malleable" newly elected president, Donald Trump. Dowd justifies her stance of the cumbersome issue by the use of anecdotes (her own personal encounters with Donald Trump), past incidences of Trump's rapid stance-changes (being skeptical of the Russian leader Gorbachev, until Gorbachev's imposter glorified Trump Tower), as well as quotes from the reactions of various senators and congressional members. In order to persuade with this opinionated standpoint, Maureen uses an enthymeme--the election's

During the time of the Red Scare attack, the U.S became afraid that communist especially from Russia and China would spread throughout the modern world. The United States is a Democratic Nation and feared that the spread of communist would be good for the United States or the world.

    While many hoped the end of WWI would mark a return to normal life for Americans, but the war’s end brought only another crisis: the Red Scare. Though the anti-German hysteria caused by the war had subsided, Americans were quickly swept up in wave of anti-Russian paranoia after the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917. Citizens were suspicious and fearful of any signs of Russian spies, communist ideas or anarchistic statements. The American government was no less afraid, establishing an “anti-radicalism” division of the justice department, which would later become the Federal Bureau of Intelligence (Pearson Prentice Hall). Several States even passed "anti-revolution" legislation which prohibited anarchistic advocacy.
