Assertion analysis blog #3 trump
In Donald Trumps quote “American Dream: Perseverance”, be it taking about different ways you can get over or under the wall that he had built. Using different literary devices like imagery makes someone think a couple of things about trump and the purpose of him writing this quote. Using tone he try’s to create some type of fear towards the immagrants.
When reading the quote from Donald trump, the part when he says “ you can walk away from the wall, you can go over the wall, you can go under the wall, you can go around the wall, you can also obliterate the wall...and then let the positive outdistance the negative”. Trump is setting a satirical tone when saying all the different ways you could get over the wall. He makes it seem as if you can get over the wall, but he will catch you and send you back over that wall because he is more powerful then you, he wants you to think that you can go over the wall and not get caught, but he knows that you will get caught.
During trumps quote he set’s this image of the wall that he built, and people going away from the wall that he built, and people going away from the wall, over the wall, under the wall, or around the wall. This shows that he is using imagery to make people have different thoughts about his quote, making people have different views of his quote. He uses imagery to get his point across to a certain group of people,” immigrants”, telling them that they can do all these things to get to the other side of the wall, but in the end he will always catch you. Imagery and tone come together to create this type of fear for that group of people.
Donald Trump uses time and imagery to create and spread this fear among the Hispanic community because they do all these different ways to get over this wall, but he will find a way to send you back to the other side.
