Populist Point Of View
Shah Rukh Khan says he knew Donald Trump would win. He watched the presidential debates while he was in Europe, but was at home in Mumbai to watch the election. He gave up when Florida swung red. “There’s always been a cycle for liberalism, intellectualism and populism,” he says. “I think the cycle has turned around the world.

    In“Trump’s Bluster Is Heard Around the World,” an article published on Yahoo! Politics by Gregory Katz, sarcastic tone and vivid descriptions portray Donald Trump as a selfish human being to manipulate readers he will not be a good president. Katz’s sarcastic and criticizing tone adds to the negative view of Trump presented in this article;“His is clearly a recognized name worldwide, which is not to say it's a beloved one.” Katz then proves this point by quoting individuals from around the world. In the first description of Trump, a woman who lives next to a Trump resort calls Trump a spoiled “strange fish.” She then describes his toddler-like tantrums, causing an image of diaper wearing Trump whining and flopping for what he wants to pop into our heads. Katz’s next proof is a video of Mexican comedians dressed as Donald Trump performing an act written from his statements. The comedians are all wearing fake guts, Neanderthal clothing, and blonde wigs. Katz writes, “It's striking how many people know of him at all,” as if Trump is some new American celebrity who is just now getting attention for his statements. It is almost impossible to not recognize the Trump name. His name is on everything he owns, and he owns buildings, programs, and boats worldwide. Trump had been known by the world way before he decided to run for president. To end the article and finish his characterization of Trump, Katz writes,“That would be one side of Trump that few if any have seen — one who says ‘sorry’.” Like Buzzfeed and Alphacat, Katz includes mockery of Trump so viewers will chuckle at their possible leader. This humor alongside Katz’s sarcastic and condescending tone alarm readers that Trump is well known, not well…

    Trump took the Presidential race by a storm instantly gaining supporters from across the nation. However, his strategy was like no other presidential candidate in history. Fearless and bold, President Trump fueled the racism and sexism of America becoming the talk of every community. Yet, some despised him hypocrisy, much more rejoiced his authenticity.

    The party insiders must have debated with each other to come to a decision on who to throw their support behind her. The same theory cannot be use to describe how Trump can to the title of Republican Nominee because his strategy for running his campaign is vastly different from any politician who became before him and his boast of his endorsements is another example of why. Trump ran his campaign similar to the theory of ‘fisherman-centered’ through the use of his rhetoric the Republican Nominee was able to gain support moving forward on the campaign trail. Trump’s persuasive diction is a clear example of how he attracted ‘the fish’ to come to him. Although Trump’s choice of words clearly had an impact on his nomination, social media help as well to aid his nomination.…

    On the tails of Populism, entering into the 20th century, Americans began to ask themselves, “what is freedom?” and “do we actually have it?” In the 20th century, people began to compare their definition of freedom with their circumstances, and did not like the results. The people, who realized they did not like their circumstances, rallied together to change their social or political circumstances. They began fighting for things such as equal pay, stopping corruption, or just better circumstances. Change became so imperative that by 1910, the word progressive began to summarize the American movement, eventually grouping the century into the century of progress or the Progressive Era. Though women and industrial workers fighting for their rights…
