Born out of xenophobic views and misinformed policy standings, the distinct parallels between Donald Trump and Brexit are rather stunning. Perhaps a coincidence, both were the result of brash, blonde haired, and stubby men with a penchant for yelling. Yet, despite their respective calls for radical societal changes, both groups have managed to avoid political demise. Indeed, the sad truth is that both the Trump and Brexit campaigns remain completely alive, a magnificently confusing phenomenon to say the least. Nearly a year ago, Donald Trump was an utter dark horse within a sea of Republican nominees; he was an unlikely contender, that every political pundit disdained acknowledging his astonishing influence. Since those days, Trump has uniquely …show more content…
Statistically, this bloc is comprised mostly of older white voters, who feel as if our nation has long departed from a set of core values. Yet, it would be difficult to say that these voters truly understands the implications of placing a candidate like Donald Trump into presidency.

The progression of logic was that each year, thousands of immigrants and refugees flood into Britain. They pillage public resources, destroy the nation with terrorism, and contribute nothing to society. These immigrants always send the worst members of their population to Britain as well, without exception. And while building a wall or leaving the EU would seriously harm trade relations with significant international partners, it’s for the betterment of the nation. Sound
Immigration has always been a hot topic in America. There are many pros and cons, which makes it a delicate issue when it comes to debates. In an attempt to reform immigration, President Obama has issued an executive order that will overhaul the nation’s immigration system as we know it.

Focusing on 4 main changes, Obamas’ plan focuses on many aspects from enhancing border security to developing new processes in which workers can enter the country.
The conservative party has been in existence since the 1670s and was first called the ‘Tories’, a term used by the Scottish and Irish to describe a robber. This party is a right- wing party which believed in conserving the tradition and the king, as the name entails. David Cameron, the current party leader became the leader in 2005.

It has been claimed by many that the 2016 presidential election, and specifically Donald Trump’s campaign, is unprecedented. While such a brutal and divisive election season has not been seen in many years Andrew Jackson’s presidential bids share many interesting parallels with Trump’s current campaign. Despite the fact that Trump is running for president almost two hundred years after Jackson his political approach is strikingly similar. Trump and Jackson have used analogous political strategies to secure passionate support from poor and working class white men.
Every 20th of January, the United States undergoes the passing of power from one president, to another. On this specific election, Donald J. Trump was elected as president. He has received much criticism from opposition, but much praise from his supporters. Although a very controversial person, Trump gave a great speech that was based on uniting the people as one. Trump used multiple rhetorical strategies such as repetition, pauses in speech, and listing are just a few of them. Adding hints of populism, his speech was one that touched many citizens. While very controversial, Trump’s inauguration speech was one that was based on the people, not the elite, about bringing back what made America great, and uniting everyone as one.

This may not have been so damaging, if only Donald Trump had any political experience whatsoever, but he has none (Project Vote Smart). Karl Rove, former President Bush’s chief political advisor, once said that being the President of the United States may b...
Because Donald Trump wanted to become a Presidential Candidate to shake up America and our way of choosing a Commander in Chief he has taken the focus off of other candidates. To me, he has done just that. In turn, he has also showcased a lot of his ignorant behavior and poor attitudes towards others. Eventually, this will affect how America votes; against Donald Trump. Furthermore, Donald Trump lacks a Presidential form of social interaction. This candidate appears to be impatient when others challenge his position on facts versus his opinions. When he dislikes someone politically or personally, Trump uses his popular attack-mode tactics to make his point. Repeatedly Donald Trump fails to be intellectually stimulating as a Presidential Candidate. Often he has a habit of stating his offensive
Last year, people voted against the establishment again. They overwhelmingly voted against another president with the surname Bush or Clinton and elected a man with no political experience. Donald Trump was elected to reject political correctness and stand up for the middle class.
Donald Trump can be appreciated for his cunning business savvy and an ability to at various times throughout his career, make it big. By co-creating this reality show with Mark Burnett, not only has he capitalized on the public's desire to fantasize about (and for a precious few, compete for) achieving a high-profile, financially lucrative career as a business mogul, he has also brought to the mainstream audience a heated, emotional and stimulating debate about something that we all seem to have an opinion on: what it takes to be a great leader.

Immigration reform has been one of the “hot” topics that have been consistently at the forefront of many American discussions. At this time, there are more illegal immigrants in our country than legal immigrants. This is a major controversy in the realm of other social policies. Illegal immigration, or undocumented immigrants, refers to foreign people entering the United States without government permission or violating the immigration law. This is typically done by sneaking into the country or staying beyond the allotted time frame.

That is a well- known fact. His tenacity and impeccable negotiating skills are by far what has propelled him through various business ventures thus far. Some see this as a plus dealing with foreign leaders, being a general who will stick to his guns, never wavering on his beliefs. A Pitbull in a suit so to speak, who is not going to back down. That whole “You aren’t going to run over US, our president won’t let you” type of mentality provides many of his supporter’s security. Trump holds nothing back. His filter is nonexistent. Spewing venom that most people wouldn’t dare to approach. He is relentless and cunning. Though he has no ideology whatsoever, his fearless doggedness has appealed to many with pent up frustration and anger with no particular place to put it. Except in that little voting booth. Power was finally
