Summary:
In the article written by WFAA-TV, Trumps political address was talked about. Many people gathered this evening to either support Donald Trump, or protest against him and his campaign. it was proven tonight that Dallas, Texas has a great deal of Trump supporters as well as people who don't support him at all.
Analysis:
I chose to write about this topic because on my way to the bus after school today, I witnessed the actual protest going on. There were many people in herds with signs to the effect of "I am not a criminal or an illegal immigrant, but an American too." I was honestly very surprised to see as many young people as I did that were there and what looked to be schools joining the protest as well. At first I wasn't quite aware on why this protest was being done, so I researched and found out what presidential candidate, Donald Trump had said about illegal immigration and how we need a wall similar to Israel's. Personally, I don't see what would be so wrong about having a wall. even though the U.S.A is considered a "melting pot", numbers have shown that its getting to a point where our economy just cannot support a great deal of extra people anymore, therefor our borders most likely need to become better managed. I was also very surprised to see this protest happening because Trump never did say that he wasn't going to let any immigrants in if he becomes president, just that whose coming in will be better managed.

ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of controversy over Trump. A lot of which is over the way he delivers his beliefs to the public. Some people believe that he is just saying what everybody else is thinking but aren't willing to say out loud, and others take strong personal offense to the things he says. Weather he makes it to the final campaign we'll have to wait and see. -Lia K. 6th
ReplyDeleteI am really glad that people are speaking out about their beliefs and by doing so exercising their right to freedom of speech. It is incredibly important. I am slightly upset that Trump is still leading in the polls though. I feel like there is so much negative energy surrounding Trump, and for the most part, people think that he is a poor candidate for president, but these opinions do not seem to be showing up in the polls. Hopefully, this is only temporary issue.

ReplyDeleteI just was arguing about Trump with my brother. I personally don't think we need a president who already has caused so much controversy. He's become very popular, but not in a successful-future-president type of way. In a Halloween costume kind of way. Halloween stores are actually selling Donald Trump Masks...
I do believe our borders should be better managed. But the numerous amount of times Trump has spoken about his hatred for Mexicans is what people are taking so much offense to. (Me included, being Mexican...)
ReplyDeleteI also don't understand how Trump has so much dislike from the public, but the polls say otherwise. I hope things will even out soon.
