“Why Is America So Violent Now?” This week I heard many interesting conversations, most of which had to do with hope and or lack of hope for our nation. There are so many violent acts occurring across the globe daily. No wonder it feels as though there is a desperation for change unlike any other time in history.

persona /political figure I decided to focus on is Donald J Trump during this ongoing 2016 U.S election campaign. The reason behind making an essay on the 58th quadrennial U.S presidential election is because there weren’t any scholarly articles or even news articles going over the connections between “celebrification” and the current election other their superficial parts.
