Let us face the obvious; Coronavirus is fatal to the elderly. A good portion of the national debt goes allocated to the healthcare system, a more significant part which the elderly account for. We also have a jester for a president, someone who would instead handle matters of national security behind a twitter account rather than take pragmatic measures. Before its effects were felt in the country, the commander in chief repudiated coronavirus as a hoax. When reality hit, Tariff Man the Wise, came up with a solution; go the Innuit way and let the elderly be decimated (Duran n.p). Not only is it a great hour but the national debt is also reduced, thus the greatest democracy of all time no longer must brownnose the communists.
As the curtain closes down his reign, Trump goes out as the president who mitigated the national debt situation since LBJ, and whats more, he prevented a nuclear Armageddon with his phone. There is no greater president of the free than His Eminence, President Donald J. Trump and guess who is supporting him, his well to do college friends running the wall street (Duran n.p). The rationale of these wealthy buffoons is that as the virus decimates the decadent lot that is the rest of society, they will be in their private jets up in the skies waiting to come and repopulate the planet.
They just might get away with it, the part about repopulating the planet. However, they still need workers to provide them with food, fuel for their fancy jets, and minions to soothe their egos. Letting the disease wipe of the elderly is a stupid and short-sighted idea on these peoples parts; it is hard to believe that these people ever went to the ivy league institutions. America and the world for that matter is not going to be held expendable just so that Junior Trump can look cool to his college buddies.

*Notes:

Each journal entry should be a minimum of two-hundred words in length.

Read current (this semester) newspapers, magazines, or journals for opinion or editorial articles.  (Do not select letters to the editor, movie or restaurant reviews, comics, feature or news articles, obituaries, personal ads, commercial advertisements, etc.) Select one article to focus on for each entry.

Do not explicate the argument.

Your response should focus on explaining why you agree or disagree with the author.

Remember to include an audience. The audience is sufficiently narrowed to a group of people that agree with your position on the author’s thesis.

Be as clear about the evidence that persuades and your own personal beliefs as you can be. Identify contradictions, additional evidence, etc.

Attach a link for the article for each entry. (If you elect to cite the source using MLA format, this is great practice. Please make sure you are properly citing.)

At the beginning of WWII, the United States was isolationists and felt that the United States should not get involved in the war.  After Japan bombed Pearl Harbor the United States was ready to fight back, they were no longer isolationists. There were many important factors that helped with the victory of the war, one of those was medicine. Throughout the war, many diseases and infections spread to many soldiers, medicine became a necessity for many soldiers. Medicine such as penicillin was used to help the soldiers that had opened wounds or infections. Technology was advancing greatly during the war such as guns and aircrafts which made it easier for soldiers to fight. Technology was helping the United States with winning the war but it was also affecting the United States in a negative way, because it was becoming too advanced that people did not know how to use it. Although technology and medicine brought negative things, it helped the United States win the war against Japan.

Critical Lens Essay

/in /by

Most directions are on the “RWS 200 Assignment 2 S20 TT” document attached. In short, the paper revolves around a single demagogic figure, present or historical, and explaining how the person is demagogic through the lens of Roberts-Miller’s article (attached below), by identifying demagogic rhetoric within the demagogue’s speeches. See the two documents on “characteristics of demagoguery” for details.

The paper should be 6 pages, with an introduction, audience paragraph, at least 4 body paragraphs, and a conclusion. The thesis is a very important part of the introduction, and should say that “[person] is a demagogue,” and tied into Roberts-Miller’s article. The audience paragraph will identify the demagogue’s in-group, their contextual sources of anxiety, and how the outgroup(s) fit into them. Each body paragraph should talk about ONE specific characteristic of demagoguery from the attached document. The powerpoint attached “RWS 200 Organizing an Academic Paper” explains the structure of the paper. Please follow precisely, as this style may be different than other essays.

A reference paper “MX Rhetorical Analysis” that I have written on a different topic is attached to see paper style.

Other powerpoint that may help are also attached.
