    I remember when Donald Trump first announced his political run for office. He built his campaign on the slogan: We’re going to Make America Great Again, “reinforced” by his bold claim of “building a wall”. When Trump got down into the weeds with Megyn Kelly during the first Fox News Republican debate, I sensed Donald Trump was a proud and arrogant man. I went on my own campaign against him; making phone calls, writing emails, calling news agencies and talk shows, posting madly to Facebook — whatever I could do to try to stop a really bad person from wrecking the Republican Party and damaging the nation. NeverTrump was my obsession, but it was, at that time, merely political for me.…

    Making America Great Again In his first ten days in office, the concept of "Trump's America" has shown itself already to be significantly different from any President prior and potentially any future, and his inauguration speech acted as a key method of setting the stage for this. Every four years on January 20th at 12pm is officially the beginning of a new presidency. People from all over the world come together as one, as they vigilantly await the inaugural speech that would presumably indicate the intentions of their future as a nation.…

    Donald Trump should not be president for the year 2016. First of all, what amazingly beneficial things will he do for America? He is a republican; he cares not for America and all of her citizens but for money and if he becomes president America will be ruined. Trump is not a man with the experience of war, or being in charge of a whole country and all the people in it, but a man of business and economy. Also if he is elected for the leader of our country, and if he has the generosity, he could get all of the citizens of America out of debt.…

    With years of experience with reality tv, like his long running show The Apprentice, and being a public figure, Trump is very effective at manipulating certain emotional reactions from people, a fact he is very well aware of. Trump doesn’t spend much time dealing with opposing view often dismissing them with a quick statement, he instead spends his time getting his message across to his audience. Whether because this is nearsighted or because he is aware that reporters will be nipping at his heels to get coverage over the slurs and attacks he makes, Trump makes effective uses of the time he has with his audience. With his experience working a crowd and his appeal to the pride, fear, and anger of republicans, Trump is very cleverly and successfully serving his ultimate purpose of becoming president by playing to the right audiences and by dismissing…

    Through the use of “name-calling”, he draw attention away from his opponents and back to him. This childish act of calling often draws out the worst in people and always causes terrible reproductions. Not only does it belittle the receiver of the insult but it also cause people to question the quality of the person. Professor of English, Donna Woodfolk Cross states, that the purpose of name-calling is to get us to react blindly and to not question whether or not the statement is true (210). Trump’s use of name-calling is like a double-edged sword, not only does it give the recipient a bad name but it also causes people to question their character.…

    Early on Mr. Trump also accused President Obama of not being a natural born United States citizen. Mr. Trump has also gotten much attention for his idea of building a wall on the Southern border of the United States separating it from Mexico, and intends to have Mexico pay for it. All of these radical ideas were the basis of Trump’s campaign, and made him stand out from any other politician in history, making him turn heads, and make headlines. Many hard-working American’s today are drained from crooked politicians in past governments. In the eyes of many of these hard-working rural Americans, many of Trump’s outrageous statements are considered to fall under the phrase “we were all thinking it, he just said it,” These “ridiculous” statements were one of the ways Trump was able to connect with the American people and give a sense of realness, giving him a legup on Clinton.…

Honestly trump isn't that bad, he can't start a war in the next 4 years (hopefully), every law and bill he can make has to go through the supreme court, and he cannot change the amendments. So he doesn't really have that much power. So my three issues for trump are wars, taxes, and the wall.…
