...Because earlier in the during the primaries for the Republicans, Marco Rubio would later suspend his campaign due to him losing his own state Florida against now President-Elect Donald J. Trump. Apparently due to his devastating lost at time made the decision he would not run for reelection for his congressional seat, many when he was questioned whether he’ll run for the governor, would he accept Vice President if offered by Trump, and would run again for his congressional. Eventually you’ll see him finally giving reply to reporters that question and would answer with I’m not running for those elected offices, but I’m running to become the next President of the United States and won’t settle for anything other than that elected offices. Inadvertently, he would later change his tune due pressure from his fellow Republican colleagues, because they could potentially lose the open seat to Patrick Murphy thus allowing the possibility of Democrat gaining more control of the...

...Lily Nguyen 1st 3/5/18 President Donald Trump won the 2016 elections with many factors. This includes the use of media and how it is important during times of elections and voting. Also the use of campaign techniques. There are also minor factors that helped contribute, like how he is a celebrity. All of these important factors has helped him win the election. One of the main reasons why Trump won was because of his popularity and the fact that he is a celebrity. Also, in 2003, he hosted his own show called The Apprentice. According to How Trump won the election : volatility and a common touch, it said, “For a decade millions of viewers were fed the idea of Trump as a successful businessman, a boss with the power to say: “You’re fired!” The Media had made him the way he is today.

...The two examples I have choosen are from President Trump’s inauguration speech. Within the speech President Trump uses a number of these logical fallacies to persuade his audience. 1. “Washington flourished - but the people did not share in its wealth. Politicians prospered - but the jobs left, and the factories closed.” President Trump makes a hasty generalization here as he draws conclusions based on no evidence. He makes these claims without providing any evidence when he says, “but the people did not share in its wealth” and “but the jobs left, and the factories closed”. He jumps to these conclusions without providing any evidence of how the wealth wasn’t shared or how the factories were closed. He uses this technique effectively as he...

...2016 Presidential Election and the Role Racism Played in It The January 20, 2017 inauguration of Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States will be recalled in future textbooks as an example of racism in the nation affecting politics. Throughout the primary campaign season, Trump did not carry himself with the respect that a politician should while running for president. Trump took a different route: he decided to inflame racist feelings throughout the nation in order to win. In this essay, I will argue that Donald Trump leveraged racism to win by provoking feelings of fear among some Americans. I believe that when people are afraid they will act and in this case, their actions enabled Trump’s presidential victory. Moreover,...

...Argumentative Essay The debate over the next Presidential election of the United States of America is getting more complicated. Some would argue that Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are the most qualified to be the next president of the United States of America, and that Donald Trump who lacks political experience should have never been considered a reasonable candidate. My feelings on the issue are mixed. Hillary Clinton’s position to raise American incomes, expand early learning for children, but find Bernie Sanders arguments about foreign policy and making college tuition free are just as important and that Donald Trump’s research on trade, health care and immigration to be equally persuasive. The Presidential elections are one of...

...How Did Trump Win The Election ? John Krosnick was the first to say that Donald Trump won the elections because his name was listed first on the ballot in states where the margin of victory was narrow. Krosnick states that "at least two" US presidents won their elections because their names were listed first on the ballot, in states where the margin of victory was narrow. James Tilley also back up Krosnick and says “ Most of the people that voted Republican were always going to vote Republican and most of the people that voted Democrat were always going to vote Democrat .” So what they saying that if you are a Republican and you going to feel the need to vote for a Republican , but if your a Democrat you feel the need to vote for a Democrat...

...Netherlands after Adolf Hitler and his National-Socialist party came to power in 1933. This house is where they hid when the Nazi’s came to the Netherlands and anti-jewish measures were introduced. The Anne Frank House tells the story of Anne and her families lives and the ultimate destruction caused by Hitler and his extreme right-wing ideas. Upon exiting the museum, I passed the visitors book, where I wrote five words: “Donald Trump should come here.” The Oxford Dictionary defines the word 'trump' as an admirable or helpful person. Does that sound like a suitable word to be associated with such a right-wing extremist? Someone who uses racism to rise to power? Someone who proposes mass-deportation in order to make America great again? Someone who blames a specific group of people for all of his countries problems? Someone who has had no leadership or civics experience at all and is now running for President of the United States - one of the most influential positions of leadership in the world? No. I think a more suitable title for a man such as Donald Trump, should be Mein Trumpf. It is...

...Social media is a threat to American democracy because it has an influence on everyone’s opinions in multiple situations. People’s lives revolve around social media these days and it’s where they end up getting their news, information, and it’s also the way people contact each other. You can be thousands of miles away and be able to communicate through multiple sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, ect. One main way it influences our society is it’s how the political parties campaign. Sure they also go to travel to different states to speak in front of people, and they put it on television. But they also record it and put it on sites like Youtube, and Facebook so others can see it. Now a days people are so content with how they spend their...

...Brian Strope Mr. McGinnis WRTC 103 11 February 2016 Robinson’s Thesis Eugene Robinson’s article titled “Don’t Count on Trump Losing in November” is a very well written piece on the character that is Donald Trump and the spectacle that is his campaign. In his article, Robinson explains why the Democratic Party should take Donald Trump seriously in his bid for president and not think of him as an easily defeated opponent. Robinson goes on to explain why Trump is having such success and what makes him appealing to voters. Robinson’s thesis statement is that the democrats should take Trump seriously and realize that a lot of Americans are supporting him because they are fed up with how our political system is currently formatted. That strong and passionate following can take him far in this election, maybe farther than the Democrats think. In Robinson’s article “Don’t Count on Trump Losing in November”, he defends his thesis very well by offering support and explanations of Trump’s success. It is also clear that this article is not an informative one, but a persuasive one. This article was a great example of a persuasive piece. Robinson is not trying to get us to either vote for nor against Trump, but rather warn us against taking him lightly. He lists some of Trump’s campaign promises and explains, “Many are inconsistent with traditional American values…” He goes on to say that, because of his stern nature and tough love approach, he “strikes a cord” with many lower class...

...them. America has a representative democracy, meaning that the citizens do not directly vote for their president. Instead, a group of people known as the electoral college casts a direct vote for the commander in chief after a popular vote of the nation has been taken. There are 538 electoral votes dispersed between all 50 states. Once a candidate reaches 270 (50.18%) electoral votes they automatically win the presidential election. America’s representative democracy is not how we want our election to be handled Those in support of the electoral college may argue...
