Donald J. Trump has been a multi-billionaire for some time now. Forbes has Trump making approximately 3.7 billon dollars. That is a lot of money and a lot of business decisions. It seems like he knows what he is doing, and what he plans on doing if he gets ahold of our nations 
economy. From 1975 onward, Trump has been a very credible man and has been garnering a lot of ethos. In his first debate, he said
“my father gave me a very small loan in 1975, and I built it into a company that’s worth many, many billions of dollars, with some of the greatest assets in the world, and I say that only because that’s the kind of thinking that our country needs.”

He believes that he has what it takes to bring this country back up to where it belongs, and a lot of Americans are backing him up.
Pathos also plays a big role in his first debate speech on CNN, he states that he received a small loan from his father prior to investing in all his riches, so you could actually say that before all of the fame, Trump was dead broke. He gives the audience the rags to riches effect, in the sense that when he started building his dynasty, he had nothing. The “small” loan his father gave him was 1 million dollars but when you look at it, 1 million dollars is nothing compared to 4 billion. He literally made a dollar out of 15 cents.
His endurance and perseverance and drive shows that he has the tools and the necessary steps that it will take to get our country up and running like it should. Latest polls show that Trump is only trailing Clinton by 5 points (Business Insider) ; Last week he was trailing by double digits. It shows that more and more people are hopping on the Trump Train.
It is intersting to see how people are now hopping off the Trump Train that was once so fueled by his business banter. At the very beginning of his campain, many of his followers used his business backing as the reason he will receive his support. However, now after much examination by the public as well as new and more in depth information about his business backgorund have been revealed, I can see why the rhetoric surrounding his business are no longer as strong to some supporters.
