A Powerful Stand

In the last of the debates, Donald Trump had invited the mother of an American soldier who was killed over seas as a guest to speak and attend the debate. In my opinion this was an attempt arouse emotions and feelings to enforce a sense of sympathy over the crowd that was their that night. I believe many people are sensitive to a point when it comes to losing a loved one and will be very persuaded by the emotions that it will emerge. I do not think he used Mrs. Smith in the direct sense to degrade Hillary but more in aspect of creating the sympathy felt by the crowd in order to get the audience to feel the hatred that the mother has against the terrorist. Donald Trump has spoken his mind on terrorism, he has stated many times his opinion towards it and I think he wanted to interact more with his audience so he decided to use this strategy to hit people in the “feels” more and get their attention.

Also, during one of the debates and speeches between Hillary and Trump, they both spoke freely on their opinion and view on terrorism. I think Donald Trump wants to send more of a deliberate message to the audience instead of saying whatever is needed to be said to thrive through the debate. Trump is a powerful man, he has acquired this power because of his decisions and ability to make good calls. I think that his ability to handle a plan and execute it is very validated. He may come off as unstable but he is not the one making the call and then it is done, it is to go through a series of people who have the ability to resent it and stop it. He is wanting people to understand that he is who he is because his cognitive ability to make beneficial judgement calls and can tremendously help the nation in the aspect of terrorism.

Both Hillary and Donald are against terrorist who attack this nation and want to defend us. They are both giving persuasive ideas and goals to put an end to it, but Donald Trump has made himself out of good judgement calls and knowledge and I believe he has proven to the people that he has his “plan” to help deal and cope with the terrorist and to reform the nation of America.

One thought on “A Powerful Stand

  1. I think that it is a really interesting point that you make about Trump bringing Mrs. Smith – not to upset the general opinion of Hilary specifically, but to create an attachment between himself and the audience via the emotional channel of terrorism. I am curious to know, however, what are some specific “good calls” that you believe that Trump has made in recent weeks? I believe that he has taken a solid and strong stance on terrorism, but I also believe that he has made numerous “bad calls” if you will. What are your thoughts on his lack of judgment when responding to the media and when answering questions in the debates?
