Is Donald Trump's Make America A Place Of Greatness?

Decent Essays
Not only does Mr. Trump discuss Hilary Clinton and immigration in his “Super Tuesday” news conference, but one can also note that he uses his phrase “Make America Great Again”( Trump 3:16) religiously throughout his time at the podium. When hearing the words “Make America Great Again” one may come to a conclusion that Donald Trump is implying that America is not a place of greatness. How a man named Donald Trump who implies our country is not great becomes a frontrunner for the Republican nomination is absurd. Our founding founders who set their differences aside to establish the U.S. constitution giving the American people rights of freedom and justice would be sick if they were to hear his phrase. “We The People”, a phrase that defines

    In the 1960s and 1970s, many of the men and women were educated and fought to have their concerns and beliefs heard. Studies showed that many of Trump’s supporters are “uneducated, older white people” and may have felt “forgotten” during Barack Obama’s two-term presidency. During the elections, Trump had very little to say about specific issues but rather stood his ground to “Make America Great Again.” Although Trump’s slogan hyped his audience, many Americans from both sides of the political spectrum, questioned when did America stop being great?

This is why the Articles of Confederation had given states so much power. However, Shays’ Rebellion showed that serving the people did not simply mean empowering states. “We the People,” is a statement that people must come together as Americans and care about the interests of everyone.…

Shear and Emmarie Huetteman, he states that millions of immigrants made him lose the popular vote majority. He has made plenty of these claims before on Twitter and also at the White House Reception.

Trump wants to see this country go back to the prosperous country it once was, but he does not know how to filter his words according to most, which makes him seem frightening. Despite Clinton’s accusation about the risk of Donald Trump, his clever use of scare tactics gives voters a sense of security because of his ideas concerning immigration and terrorism. According to Molly Ball, author of “Donald Trump and the Politics of Fear,” Donald Trump uses fear to his advantage in hopes of winning the presidential election.…

    “Make America Great Again.” That is the slogan a man ran on as he somehow captured the attention and the vote of millions of American citizens. That false hope convinced the country that somehow the progression the country had made in the past eight years was not great and that we had to “take back America.” Through all the debates, interviews, conventions and campaign rallies this slogan reached so many and no one thought to ever question it. No one ever thought to ever ask the question of not how he planned to make America great again, but rather who he planned to make it great for again.…
