Throughout the course of time, politicians have used the media to promote their platform. Now, in this modern age, Twitter has proved to be a dominant platform for presidential candidates. But who are these two rival politicians, how do they campaign, and who outperforms the other?
The two candidates are Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Hillary Clinton is the democratic nominee, she is the former Secretary of State under the Obama Administration. Donald Trump is the republican nominee. a successful american businessman. Both actively campaign for their position in the white house. While they both use Twitter, neither campaign exactly as the other.
Twitter; a social media platform which connects millions of people together, is one of many

One example from Hillary’s twitter, which Hillary retweeted, “I’ve released 9 years of tax returns. RT if you agree it’s time for Donald Trump to release his!” (@Ted Cruz), Hillary forces the issue, pushing Trump to release his tax returns while planting seeds of distrust against Trump. Another tweet appealing to emotion, “Trump on Alicia, 1996: ‘Miss Piggy.’ This morning: ‘She gained a massive amount of weight...it was a real problem.’” (@HillaryClinton). Attached is a video interview of said “Miss Piggy”, the goal; to make people sympathize or even empathize with the torment of being bullied for their …show more content…
I believe Hillary is more adept at establishing credibility, with her use of retweeting thoughts, but Trump’s pathos is certainly stronger than Hillary’s. Both flounder in the face of Logos, although given the medium, Logos is rather difficult to use. Trump does promote himself using twitter, through Hashtags for topics, but Hillary succeeds at using twitter to it’s fullest as she also retweets. With this in mind, I would give the name of better rhetorician to Hillary.

On November 8th, 2016, the United States will finally have its presidential election for the 45th President of the United States of America. This election will be a grating race between a number of political parties and their respective nominees. Two parties are more notable than the others, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. The Democratic Party has a well-known nominee; Hillary Clinton, who has served as secretary of state, and has been the senator of New York, she has also been the first lady of the U.S while her husband, former president Bill Clinton was in office (Hillary For America). Mrs. Hillary Clinton is mainly a candidate for president because of her experience and great attributes. Alongside Clinton is Mr. Donald J. Trump, who is the respective presidential nominee for the Republican Party. Donald Trump is a well-known billionaire real estate personnel, who rose up to his status due to his great business intellect (Donald Trump Biography). In like matter, there are other nominees for president; however, Trump and Clinton are the two that are most significant and one if not the other will eventually overtake the position as President of the United States. Both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are formidable
Proclaimed as the hottest company since Google and Facebook, Twitter introduced a revolutionary micro-blogging service in 2006 that allowed users to spread and share short messages of 140 characters (“tweets”) with friends and strangers subscribing to follow their communication flow (as so called “followers”) in order to find out what is happening right now from any point of the globe.
Twitter creates a positive impact through simple connection; this connection calls up raw emotion, enables people to keep in constant communication with friends and colleagues across the world, and constantly updates people with news from everywhere on the globe just as it is happening. “Twitter is my lifeline to the world.” Twitter enables Eltahawy to stay updated on news as it breaks, keeping her on top of every story and in constant communication by
Presidential nominee, Hillary Rodham Clinton, in a recent speech at a private fundraising event geared toward LGBT rights supporters, addressed her political opponent, Donald J. Trump and his supporters. The fundraiser was hosted by singer and actress, Barbra Streisand and her wealthy counterparts. The former Secretary of State argued that half of Donald Trump’s supporters can be put into a “basket of deplorable” and alluded that the other half are simply anti-government. Clinton supported her assertion by using logical fallacies by making hasty generalizations, faulty cause and effect, and bandwagon appeals. She also solidified her reasoning by stating, the supporters in the “basket of deplorable” are racists, sexists, xenophobic, and many
Donald trump bypasses her antics by bringing up the story about her email scandal in the debate. In the debate trump looked like he was disrespecting Hillary Clinton, especially when she was talking. Trump’s arrogance showed a lot at the debate from watching his facial expressions and his tone. Both Clinton and Trump have problems with some of the ethos challenges. Like trump has been caught lying a lot during his time speaking.
The democratic candidate Hilary Clinton announce her participation in the 2016 presidential campaign on April 15, 2015, via a YouTube video. Ever since she’s been appealing to her audience in ways that only she can. In the democratic party, her main opponent was Vermont senator, Bernie Sanders. She was able to overpass Bernie Sanders and is now head to head with Republican candidate, Donald Trump.
The two canadities I picked are Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush. Hillary Cinton is a Democrat who is running for president. Some of her strengths are she has nearly one hundred percent name recogntition. She also has a built in base of support among working class women. Her strongest supporters are working class women. Other strong supporters are people who were big fans of Bill Clinton when he was in office. Some weakness she has iss trying to appeal to the coalition of blacks and young college educated white voters who supported obama. She also declared her presidency in 2007 but was defeated by Barrack Obama. She also needs to be able to represent the future and not the past. Also she’s a trained attorney; former secretary of State in the Obama administration; former senator from New York; and former
The Democratic and Republican Party primaries are over. America is left with two main candidates to choose from in the upcoming U.S. presidential election this coming November: Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. As of right now, both candidates are still considered “presumptive” in their respective parties until each party holds their national convention and officially nominates them. Barring a Hillary Clinton indictment, one of those two will become the next president of the United States.
The presidential candidates this election season are a lot more interesting than in years past. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are both different in their own ways. Donald Trump has never held any form of a political office. On the other hand, Hillary Clinton, has held political positions for many years and her husband was the President of the United States. If either of them is elected it would be the first time the president has been a lot of things. First, if Hillary Clinton is elected President it would be the first time a woman has held the position of Commander and Chief. If Donald Trump is elected, he would be the first outsider with no political experience to be President. Trump is a successful business man, owning and operating several
Hillary Clinton's view on giving free child support is one that Trump also has. Both Trump and Hillary think the Government is the key to solving people's problems. Everyone knows that Hillary is for government programs such as Social Security but it is a surprise that Trump would also be in favour for such things because he is a Conservative. Another similarity between the presidential candidates is their tax plans.Trump wants to cut everyone's taxes, especially the wealthy,
In the article, “Donald Trump Vs. Hillary Clinton,” by Aurum CDS, Nikhilesh Jasuja, 6 gfelt, HeidiR, Nicolas Gotchas, I LikeBooks, Kathryn Liu, Sean Giles, Matador. It talks the mainly about the platforms that both Hillary and Trump stand on.While voting between these two candidates voters look at 3 of many concerns which include the legalization of Marijuana, health care and minimum wage. Hillary stands on the democratic party which (in the US) is the older and more liberal of the two major political parties founded in 1828, while Trump stands on the republican party which is the more conservative of the two major political parties in the US: established around 1854. Hillary and Trump is both running for president. Before voting people look at certain issues that are happening and then see what each candidate will do to solve it, many of which include the nominee's position on immigration, health care and minimum wage.
So far this technique has been seen by Bernie Sanders, but analysts explained that the Clinton campaign has advised and trained an unknown number of grass-roots tweeters to post specific messages and photos about the campaign at specific times, for example, during presidential debates.
