Donald J. Trump’s State of the Union
address
Donald Trump gave his State of the Union speech on the 5th of February, 2019. This address is given by
each president of the United States, whenever they decide it is needed. This address usually includes a
“budget message and an economic report of the nation”1. But this year that was not the case, and instead
Trump talked a lot about immigration again, and how people looking into his dealings is halting American
progress. Fox News (known for being right-wing2) and Washington Post (left middle) both wrote articles
explaining what was said. Trump mentioned his wall but didn’t mention how it would affect the economy,
aside from saying it would

In this article, the author explains how President Trump is slowly losing international credibility due to his "constant bluffing". This varies from the wall at the Mexican border to stop all trade with North Korea.
When I first saw this article, the bias towards President Trump was pronounced.
The title of this article is "For everyone's sake, Trump needs to stop bluffing so badly."
Even this shows bias against Trump, saying he must stop lying. The article starts with the author explaining how Donald Trump spoke to an audience in Arizona about his fight

posted and spread. Remember the 2016 election in which Donald Trump won? Yes, a new study
is now saying that Trump might have won due to the fake news on social media. If indeed fake
news does exist, how do we stop believing in them and how do we stop them from getting

To begin, let's take a look at the existing situation and various existing examples of fake
news and inaccurate information. First, the study of the 2016 election finds out that back then,
the original Obama supporters all saw the fake news about Clinton on social media. The result

West’s first time voicing his political views. In 2009, Kanye
stormed the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards, as Taylor Swift accepted her VMA award.
In an interview, President Obama watched the video of West and responded with, “He’s a
jackass”. This outraged West and thus he turned to twitter to speak his mind. “Obama was in
office for eight years and nothing in Chicago changed” West tweeted, evidently ignoring
Obama’s community activism and his work as a Senator of Illinois (ye, 2018). This seems to be a
turning point for Kanye West’s online identity, as before Kanye’s rants were assumed to be
because of his reputation of being overly-confident.

State of the Union Rhetorical Analysis
On Tuesday, January 30, President Donald Trump delivered his first State of the Union address. A large portion of his speech was devoted to the controversial topic of immigration reform. Trump’s purpose is to create an argument that gets the attention of congress to support his fight in taking control of immigration in America. He creates a fearful tone in order to convey to Americans that the immigration problem has become unacceptable and needs to be handled in the ways he believes are right. A careful analysis of his remarks reveals that he uses emotional appeals, anaphora, and cause and effect to convey his message

, where does it stop?" In Donald Trump's eyes, the four people he mentioned are all equally heroic and important to America. Since all four of these people were slave owners, he's basically asking why the monuments of Washington and Jefferson didn't get taken down even though they were slave owners, just like Lee and Jackson, whose monuments are being taken down. I think that Trump is only saying these things to appeal to the people who support him, which are people like the alt-right and white supremacists. Trump and his supporters want people to stop trying to change their history and culture. They feel like liberals are altering their culture by doing things like taking down monuments.
In all, it is obvious that Trump wanted to preserve the culture of the white people back then and doesn't approve of monuments being taken down. In these statements, he is defending the monuments in the way an alt-right would.

Trump Administration threatens Dream ACT
The mistreatment of children of undocumented immigrants in the United States of
America is a prevalent issue in today’s society. The threat to immigrants - particularly those
who are undocumented- is greater than ever with current President Donald Trump in power
and the unknown fate of the DACA act. The policies of DACA- Deferred Action for Childhood
Arrivals- are constantly being questioned, however the policies although not perfect, are key to
protecting undocumented immigrants under the Trump Administration, and rectifying the abuse

Trump. Kelly is known for her fearlessness when asking questions. At the 2015 GOP debate, Kelly challenged presidential hopeful Donald Trump. She boldly asked him to explain the sexist comments he had made about women in the past. Trump was infuriated by her question. After the debate, he claimed Kelly to be "overrated," "crazy," "angry," and "a bimbo." Soon after that, Trump went on CNN to say more about Megyn Kelly. Trump's mistreatment of Kelly went on while Fox News stood and watched. The CEO of Fox News, Roger Ailes, actually has a very friendly relationship with Trump. Later, both Trump and Ailes would be accused of sexual harassment by various women. Kelly eventually spoke up to reveal

Some of the people must still confused about what is Trump Travel Ban. Just as its name implies, Trump Travel Ban, which can also be called Trump Muslim Ban, is the colloquial name for actions U.S. President Donald Trump issued in 2017 to restrict entry into the United States. “The actions included two executive orders for restrictions on citizens of seven or six predominantly Muslim countries, such as North Korea, Iran, Yemen, Somalia, Syria, Libya, Chad, and Venezuela” (Trump travel ban, 2017).

Donald Trump used at the start of his campaign when he stated of Mexican immigrants in America, “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists” (Trump, 17). From that point forward Trump hasn’t quit campaigning on the reason that immigrants are a threat. Furthermore, behind the Tree of Life murders exist social forces with historical roots that should alarm everybody. Statistically the 11 deaths in Pittsburgh show that the anti-semitic incidents rose 57 percent, and that was only the first year of Trump’s presidency.

Children can stay on their parent's plans until they are 26, which is a significant plus for college students like myself. Also, businesses with more than 50 employees must offer health insurance.

For example, he states, “Mr. Trump has over 7 million followers on social media.” Something that doesn’t really matter at all towards him being the president of the United States but to him it’s a big deal. Secondly, he is very cocky when speaking about himself. The first line states, “Donald J. Trump is the very definition of the American success story.” When you’re the president is it really necessary to say that, proves that he is full of himself and cocky while doing so. Lastly

The Disconcerting Nature of the Potential Impact of Fake News on the 2016 Presidential Election
‘Fake News' is a term used to describe the phenomena where websites intentionally publish articles with incorrect information aimed at misleading, deceiving, and tricking readers. Usually, through the enticement of eye-catching titles or sensationalized messages, these sites bait readers into clicking on their websites in order to generate advertisement revenue through internet traffic.
This essay explores that phenomenon and the unexpectedly substantial role it played in the 2016 Election of Donald Trump. Particularly noteworthy is an article in 2016, from a website claiming
