Donald Trump Negative Influence

Improved Essays
As you can see, these words of wisdom and passion do not come from the likes of former Presidents like JFK. No, no, no. It’s from the one and only, Donald Trump! Now, to claim Trump is this one-off phenomenon, whose ideology can only succeed in that racist, gun happy place known as the U.S., is uninformed. Laugh, cheer, or spit if you please, but similar ideas to Donald’s have become both popular and successful globally. He is an example of what people want these days from their politicians.
Touting how he will “make America great again”, Trump has promised to bring China and Mexico down a peg, with renegotiations of trade deals and policies. One of his main promises has been renegotiating NAFTA, a free trade agreement between the U.S, Mexico and Canada. According to a Gallup Poll, only 37% of Americans think NAFTA has had a positive effect, while 53% say it has had a negative effect. Cite

They may be right, but keep in mind, these “experts” also said a candidate couldn’t win if he supported civil rights in the 1960’s. Just some food for thought, LBJ, who passed civil rights, won the 1964 U.S Presidential election by the fifth largest margin in history.
Now does a ban on Muslims deserve to be in the same sentence as Civil Rights? No! Is Donald Trump a complete idiot? Yes! Even by my own admission, Trump is a complete racist and a borderline fascist. As an American, I pray that he doesn’t win.
Ignorance is however, not bliss. Trump may not win, but that doesn’t mean his type ideology is all of sudden unpopular and dead. The data and trends simply suggest otherwise. Donald Trump is simply an example of what voters across the globe want from their politicians. They may not call Rossie O’donnel a “fat pig” or call Jeb Bush as “dumb as a rock”, but they sure will share many similarities to Donald

    The 1960s saw a rapid increase in African-American political and social activism as well as a shift in the goals, focuses, and methods of the Civil Rights Movement. First characterized by its peaceful protests, Christian philosophies of solidarity and inclusion in the face of injustice, and willingness to seek a compromise with local, state, and federal legislatures, the Civil Rights Movement during the early 1960s had both tremendous support and opposition. Nevertheless, through the patient and charismatic arguments for peace and equality made by men such as Martin Luther King Jr. of the SCLC and President John F. Kennedy, many Americans found themselves open to the idea of equal rights and opportunities for all. Over time, however, the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s underwent a defining shift of goals. The movement turned from a peaceful, non-violent approach…

    It has now been one year during Trump’s time in presidency, and it would seem as though that his administration has yet to hit any of the big milestones that promised during their campaign. While they did gain some small victories in the past, it does not seem as though they would it big as of now. Even so, they still face nonstop backlash towards their approach to our government’s lawmaking and policymaking ideals. And yet, they will still continue to move forward, and stay on the same agenda, to which is the path of a businessman whom seeks out for a wealthy and stronger America. In fact, this is quite similar to what our previous president, known as Richard Reagan, had in mind as well.…

    Election day is approaching and regardless of the outcome, it will definitely become a historic event. Timothy Egan (2016) shares his opinion towards Donald Trump in his Op-Ed article, “The Immigrants Turned Away.” He is certainly not a Trump supporter and uses the time remaining, before Election Day, to warn U.S citizens about Trump’s plans concerning immigration. Pathos is applied the most throughout Egan’s argument because he prefers to connect with his audience on a personal level. Ethos and logos appear in the argument to provide evidence and strengthen his writing.…

    Not only does Mr. Trump discuss Hilary Clinton and immigration in his “Super Tuesday” news conference, but one can also note that he uses his phrase “Make America Great Again”( Trump 3:16) religiously throughout his time at the podium. When hearing the words “Make America Great Again” one may come to a conclusion that Donald Trump is implying that America is not a place of greatness. How a man named Donald Trump who implies our country is not great becomes a frontrunner for the Republican nomination is absurd. Our founding founders who set their differences aside to establish the U.S. constitution giving the American people rights of freedom and justice would be sick if they were to hear his phrase.…

    We Shall Overcome The 1960s are often recognized as being the period of the Civil Rights Movement. Of the many issues concerning the treatment and equality of African Americans, voting rights became one of the more highly debated topics. Even though African Americans had won the right to vote when the 15th amendment was added to the U.S. Constitution in 1870, many local and state governments were purposely preventing black from voting through various tests that white voters were not forced to take. The tests were often unreasonable and resulted in many African Americans being turned away from the polls.…
