Donald Trump Informative Speech

1269 Words3 Pages

Donald J. Trump, businessman and media mogul, has swept America off her feet and has taken her by storm. Since the announcement of his 2016 presidential campaign on June 16, 2015, nothing has stopped his rise to the top of the polls. He began his campaign with controversial statements, some so controversial they left many people wondering when he would finally say the wrong thing. His campaign also began with ridicule from many media outlets, establishment politicians, and celebrities. Later that year on December 8, satirical news organization The Onion published an article entitled ‘This Will Be The End Of Trump’s Campaign,’ Says Increasingly Nervous Man For Seventh Time This Year, hilariously lampooning those who doubted Trump. Make no mistake …show more content…

Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton had name recognition, but nowhere near the level of Trump. His business career spans almost five decades, and he has certainly put his name out there every single year. Tabloids, lawsuits, high profile marriages and relationships, are just a few of the things Trump is known for; he’s even had his own vodka and board game. He puts his name on every building and thing he owns, but nothing compares to the fame and renown he’s achieved from hosting The Apprentice on NBC for fourteen seasons, only stopping in 2015 due to his campaign announcement and federal campaign laws. It was on The Apprentice that he masterfully crafted his public persona of bravado and lavishness. The catchphrase “You’re fired!” has become synonymous with The Donald; however, Donald Trump is more than just The Donald, his character he plays. Yet, many do not see through this to observe the real Donald Trump. Objectively, it takes someone very intelligent, disciplined, and methodical to graduate from an Ivy League business school, successfully manage large companies, manipulate the media to their advantage, and constantly win majorities of voters in a presidential election. Donald Trump has done all these things, so why are there still those who doubt his

  • What Are The Similarities Between Roosevelt And Teddy Roosevelt

    828 Words  | 2 Pages

    Donald Trump is the victim of many jokes because of his orange fake tan and wispy hair. Teddy was known for his glasses and for his distinct teeth. These matchless characteristics are easily identified in any political cartoon because they are extremely exaggerated to prove a point. Not only do they stand out for their psychical appearances, their personalities are quite unique as well. Both are known for their harsh, passionate temperaments towards ineffective government. Both played on populist beliefs and placed the average man against the government while realizing the potential for media influence. Roosevelt was one of the first to utilize media like newspapers and magazines in attempt to sway public opinion. Trump does the same but with modern technologies. He operates his own twitter account, often voicing his blunt opinions in a sometimes controversial way. Regardless, he gets his point across to millions in a matter of seconds. Today’s society allows for quicker spreading of news, but Roosevelt still expressed his views

    It is true, as Hedges writes, that “Political leaders, who use the tools of mass propaganda to create a sense of faux intimacy with citizens, no longer need to be competent, sincere, or honest.” We are already live in this reality. Donald Trump, our very own President, has been widely accused of making mistake after mistake. Sharing classified information with Russia, talking smack and threatening North Korea, the list goes on. The other day, I even heard that he tweeted about the United Forces being ‘locked and loaded’, implying that we’re ready for nuclear war with North Korea because of this. Despite all of the suspicious actions of the POTUS, people still take his side, claiming he’s America’s saviour. It goes to show how no matter how crazy someone is,

    Donald J. Trump, is known to many as the orange man who wags his finger down a long table of celebrities firing them left and right every Sunday night on NBC. To others he is known as the billionaire tycoon, who graces our headlines for remarkably insensitive or oddball remarks. All (not even possibly Mr. Trump himself), at least until now, viewed him as a possible candidate for the next President of the United States. But as polls indicate, and citizens across the country (both moderate and conservative) vote in favor of Trump, he may very well be sitting in the oval office come January 20th, 2017. Whether this strikes fear in your heart, or tremendous hope is beside the matter, no one can deny the fervor and mania Trump

    Trump’s use of pathos is simple and repetitive. He claims, many times, that he will return safety to America, effectively ending crime and violence. Trump constantly paints the country in a dystopian light, emphasizing how terrorism and police attacks have placed the United States in a state of crisis. Besides making claims that crime is rampant, Trump also uses anecdotes to further incite the crowd. By mentioning stories about an immigrant killing an innocent American college girl and Iranian troops capturing American sailors, Trump highlights Americans’ safety concerns both domestically and

    However, now that he has won the support of many American citizens, he has become a more calm person and interacts with the other candidates in a calmer manner. As Lakoff denotes, “Since voters’ opinions are neither logical nor self-made, they should be altered, not obeyed. Politicians should ‘not follow polls but use them to see how they can change public opinion to their moral worldview.’” Similarly, Trump as a “businessman” is not a politician, yet tries to change public opinion to his moral

  • Unveiling Trump: A Delve into his Troublesome Traits

    In the midst of one of the most controversial presidential elections in history, both political parties are struggling to prove that their candidate is the best choice. Clinton and Trump’s disapproval ratings are very low, but one has to ask, is there really a lesser evil to choose from? While Clinton has had her own fair share of past discrepancies, Trump’s track record proves much more troublesome. Donald Trump has proven to be an untrustworthy presidential candidate because of his misogynistic actions, his racial bias, and his corrupt business history. During the Republican debate on August 6, 2016, Trump had a falling out with Fox correspondent Megyn Kelly after she questioned him about some of his comments on women, where he referred to them as “’fat pigs’, ‘dogs’, ’slobs’, and ‘disgusting animals’,” (Bahadur).

    So, as for years mainstream America and the whole business world has known and recognized Mr. Trump for its great business practices and real estate success made him a suitable figure I would represent in my project.

After reading several books he wrote, such as, ‘The Art of The Deal’, ‘Think like a billionaire’, , ‘Think like a Champion’ , ‘The way to the Top’, ‘Why we want you to be rich’ ( in collaboration with Robert Kiyosaki).
