if one takes a closer look at Donald Trump, the front-runner for the republicans, one will see his many examples of Ad Hominem and understand the art of this fallacy. Donald Trump is the master of begging the question fallacy, which occurs when "someone assumes what he or she is trying to prove" (Kessler 32). Although, it is unclear if he truly believes what he says, much of it is simply bad reasoning. After all, his go-to phrase is you dummy (Sottek). Donald Trump is the key to understanding Ad…

discussion. We both had similar ideas when it came to the strength and weaknesses of Donald Trump’s campaign. First, one strength we both identified is campaign financing. Han and Heith make the statement that wealthy candidates have advantages over challengers, since they can spend lavishly on their campaigns without wasting precious campaign time on fundraising, which is crucial to keep campaign momentum going. Trump did not have to focus on fundraising cost, like Hillary Clinton did. This…

Donald Trump is a name we have all seen in the news lately with his outlandish language, degrading of his opponents, and those who have questioned his reasons behind joining the presidential race. He has went out and made a personal attack on John McCain saying he wants a war hero who is not captured then turns around and states that he (Donald) has done more to help veterans than John. These kinds of attacks have been his method of showing his views and frankly have been upsetting a lot of…

"Trump clearly is very much an isolationist when it comes to trade, which obviously is the most important issue we have with the U.S," said Donald Abelson, a political science professor at Western University and director of The Canada-U.S. Institute. "If you do buy into the bravado and do buy into the policy pronouncements, it's all going to be about 'America first' and everyone else second and what kind of ripple effect does that have on us." A Trump presidency "would certainly have a huge…

Mr. Trump’s Fallacy Donald Trump during his presidential campaign has been attacking his competitors on a very personal level. Donald Trump has committed the fallacy of ad hominem when he claimed Carly Fiorina should not be president because of the fact that she is a woman and because of her past failed business endeavors, and when he attacked Dr. Ben Carson on the personal fact that he has been violent in the past as a reason for Dr. Carson not to be president. Carly Fiorina is a candidate…

Hillary has done a better job than Donald. The reason I believe that she did a better job is that she answers the questions much more directly than Trump, although, she doesn't answer them completely correct, Trump does not answer the questions correctly at all. For example, the first topic that was talked about being, "Are the candidates modeling appropriate behavior for today's youth?" Hillary answered the question somewhat correctly and she stayed on topic, Trump did not answer and completely…

The quote “Without passion you don't have energy, without energy you have nothing.” brings out the intelligence, persistantness and imperialism in Donald Trump and I believe that he should be named person of the year. He was born on june 14 1946 in Queens NY and his father was a successful real estate tycoon who Donald Trump had become strongly influenced by.

Trump is a businessman so he knows how to take…
