Rhetorical Analysis Of Trump's International Ideology

Improved Essays
Trump’s international ideology displays the resurgence of Jacksonian principles through his unilateral position against globalism. Across the Pacific, Sino-U.S. relations have significantly diminished as Trump, and his supporters, oppose Chinese influence in any existing global economic architecture as they view the Chinese as a threat to the economic potential of the United States. Similarly, Trump’s explicit rhetoric on preventing Muslim immigration has been the subject of concern for the Middle East.

    In Coulter’s editorial, “Trump: The Great Unifier!”, she delivers the claim that Tump unifies Americans with his immigration positions, unlike the Democrats, the white liberals, or the previous Republicans; she asserts he treats illegal immigrants like “Americans”, rather than victims. Coulter provides valid points, but that does not make her editorial correct in any form. Logos appeal is used when Coulter states Compton changed to a Mexican majority, but Coulter’s assertion that this occurred because “Mexicans moved in and decided they wanted blacks out” is not supported with any facts or data, making it unreliable. Continuing, she presents logo appeal with Anderson’s opinion on illegal immigrants “taking jobs” because he could not get a job…

    To support his claim Friedman uses references to several different countries and their leadership’s decision. To convey his wariness of Trump and the future that would likely occur if he were to be elected as president during the upcoming election. He alludes to Putin and how he attempted to distract from his “economic mismanagement and illegitimacy” by seizing Crimea and burning massive amounts of foreign food imports. He also discusses China’s Securities Finance Corporation that spent the equivalent of twenty-nine billion U.S. dollars, from their government budget to stabilize their economy. The tone he uses in those two examples hints at a negative view that he has on how those leaders dealt with their country’s issues.…

    Trump has issued new executive orders that have shocked not only Americans, but also people from all over the world. Basically what these orders are to do is that they are intended to ban Muslims from seven countries from entering the United States. Even those who have been living in America for quite a while are to be deported to their countries. What is more devastating is that students who had their student visas from their home countries to come study in the USA are no more welcomed here and have to face these new abnormal orders. I think the new executive order is definitely intended to discriminate against Muslims because there were no terrorist attacks performed from people who are from these 7 countries in the U.S.…

    “(We have) more to do for the young woman in East St. Louis, and thousands more like her, who has the grades, has the drive, has the will, but doesn’t have the money to go to college (Obama, para 6).” Interestingly, he follows this statement with an attempt to dissatisfy one of the commonplace arguments against liberal policies. Mr. Obama says that these people do not ‘expect that government will solve all of their problems,’ but that they are willing to work hard in order to achieve their dreams. This seems to solidify Obama’s ethos with the audience, especially when combined with the specific scenarios that he uses to exemplify the need for his policies. The middle section of the speech is dedicated to the 2004 Presidential Election.…

    In addition, Trump’s abusive tactics on how treats others, puts the U.S. in a unhealthy relationship with the world. To start, Trump has a problem with criticizing and punishing foreign leaders that don’t agree with or comply with his stances and demands. Trump’s proposal of establishing a 20% import tax coming from the U.S.-Mexican boarder is a prime example. It is a coercive measure “that is nothing more than a symbolic chokehold, punishing Mexico’s Government for noncompliance. Possible policies such as the implied tax increase are anything but presidential, considering only Trump’s demands instead of The United States overall global relationships” (Rodriguez-Cayro).…

    The slogan that propelled Donald Trump into his influence across the nation, “make America great again,” shows that Trump sees America has fallen downhill and has hopes to improve it. Trump wants to see this country go back to the prosperous country it once was, but he does not know how to filter his words according to most, which makes him seem frightening. Despite Clinton’s accusation about the risk of Donald Trump, his clever use of scare tactics gives voters a sense of security because of his ideas concerning immigration and terrorism. According to Molly Ball, author of “Donald Trump and the Politics of Fear,” Donald Trump uses fear to his advantage in hopes of winning the presidential election.…

    The Democratic National Committee invited Barack Obama to give the keynote address at the 2004 Democratic Convention. This news came as a surprise as Obama had not yet gained national attention, and was not an obvious choice when compared to other candidates. After his inspiring speech however, Obama became well known throughout America which was good news for John Kerry, as Obama’s speech was intended to persuade voters to support Kerry as president. Obama uses rhetorical devices such as climax in structure, epistrophe, and metonymy to persuade skeptical voters to vote for John Kerry as their next president. Obama makes his speech more convincing by using climax to split his speech into multiple sections; the first section is used…

    In response to Assad gassing and killing children in Syria, President Barack Obama argues that something has to be done to stop Assad from using chemical weapons in his speech “Remarks by the President in Address to the Nation on Syria.” He effectively builds his argument by using imagery, logos, and ethos.

A father clutching his dead children, imploring them to get up and walk.”…
