After watching the video, give me the three things you learned about Donald Trump and three things you learned about Hillary Clinton that you think will influence who a person might vote for.
Donald Trump: 1.Donald Trump’s family believed that there were superior people and that life was a competition. His father was hard on him and taught him that losing meant that he meant nothing. Donald was also sent to a military academy where her adopted some sexist values propagated by playboy. His classmates believe that he hasn’t changed since military academy and still holds the same views. 2.Trump’s older brother Freddie, died at a young age, partly because he was always looked at as a failure by his father and turned to alcoholism. From Freddie, Donald learned that he couldn’t be intimidated by anyone. 3.Donald’s mentor in real estate development was Roy Cohn, who had no morals. He made Donald very confrontational and to use lawsuits “like machine gun bullets.” This lawsuit defense mechanism is a weapon that Donald Trump uses against his enemies often as a threat.
Hillary Clinton: 1)Clinton changed her image and adopted her husband’s name to help him win back the governor of Arkansas position. She sacrificed her identity to help her husband. 2)Clinton gave a rebuttal to Senator Brooke and upstaged him during her college graduation. She said what everyone was thinking and this was the first time she received political attention. This inspired her to go to law school. So, even when she was a young adult, she has been outspoken and unafraid to express her views, even if they went against a senator’s. 3)Clinton failed the D.C. bar exam, but passed the bar exam in Arkansas. She took this as a sign to move to Arkansas to be with her boyfriend, Bill Clinton. She thought that she and Bill Clinton could change America. She had a vision for her and Bill Clinton and she pursued this vision.
1. Trump has always had huge ambitions and goals and has accomplished most if not all of them. 2. Although he was raised privileged he was raised to be extremely hardworking and succeeded at one of the best military academies in the country. 3. He has no reason to run for president because he has nothing to gain; he is solely running to make America great again. He has nothing to gain due to his dominance in the business world and huge wealth. Hillary Clinton: After watching this video i still see no reason why anyone would vote for a woman who attacks victims of sexual assault, doesnt answer the call for help from our ambassador, has taken money from foriegn governments and jeopardized national security.
Hillary Clinton: 1. Hillary gave up her identity when Bill Clinton didn't win a second term as governor, and was essentially his campaign manager when he later won another term as governor. 2. Hillary's childhood was filled with verbal abuse from her parents. 3. Hillary was an attorney on the watergate committee.
Donald Trump: 1. Donald Trump had a childhood filled with luxury. 2. Fred Trump influenced Donald with theories that included: there are superior people, and if you don't win, you lose and are crushed. 3. Donald Trump was sent to a Military Acadrmy as a teenager.
Donald Trump: 1) Trump's father instilled in him the beginnings of his elite, cut-throat philosophy. His father ascribed to a racehorse theory of genetics, believing that a "superior" man and a "superior" woman will have "superior" offspring. 2) Trump was sent to the New York Military Academy when he was thirteen. He thrived in the competitive environment, becoming a star athlete and was even nominated 'Ladies' Man.' The closest thing the boys at the Academy got to interactions with women was the magazine 'Playboy.' His former peers describe his personality over the years as remaining unchanged, an assessment that Trump agrees with. 3) Trump's older brother, Freddie, was harassed for years by Trump and their father for not pursuing business and joining the airline service. He became an alcoholic and died at age forty-one. Trump described his brother as "not a killer." Freddie served to sharpen Trump's resolve to push hard and not be cowed by their father.
Hillary Clinton: 1) Clinton's penchant for secrecy began at a young age. Her childhood was a far cry from the happy comedy she describes. Her father was verbally abusive and demeaning towards her, and her parents fought often. She seldom brought friends home. 2) Clinton got her first true taste of what it would be like to be a public speaker when she was a senior in high school. She gave an unscripted rebuttal to more caustic remarks made by the senator speaking at their graduation, a feat that earned her wide-spread recognition and was featured in the 'Life' magazine. Recognizing her passion, Clinton moved on to law school. 3) She changed her image (losing weight, developing somewhat of a drawl, ditching glasses) in order to help her husband become governor. In the process, she sacrificed her own identity for the sake of political gain.
Trump: 1)Ever since he was a little kid his father has told him there only two types of people winners and losers and either your a winner or a loser you can't be in between 2)When he was a boy he was put into a Military Academy there he become one of the more popular kids in his class. 3)In the business world he grew by having one mentor in particular that that told him that you never lose no matter what and that he was always right.
Hillary Clinton: 1)Her parents where very abusive and got into fights a lot. They also didn't seem to care that much about her as a kid. 2)She attended many protests and was a supporter of people like Martin Luther King Jr. 3)She went through a big change in character in order to help her husband Bill become governor which meant she changed her hair, glasses, and her last name.
Hillary Clinton 1. She changed her appearance to help her husband become the governor of Arkansas. She had to become the ideal politician's wife. 2. Her family was very abusive, emotionally and verbally, which caused Hillary to grow up with no real role models. 3. Her church priest took her to a Martin Luther King Jr speech and that's where she found out about the liberal ideas. She was in a rage when she found he had passed away.
Donald Trump 1. His role model was super strict and told him to never lose and to always sue and not settle during lawsuits. 2. Trump Tower had a women as the main construction person which was very rare. He said a women can work 10 times harder than a man and that they needed to prove themselves. 3. Trump went to a military academy where he liked the structure and the "no funny business" theme throughout the campus. He took this into value as he created his business. He wanted to outshine his father. The old money never approved of Trump.
Donald Trump 1. Donald Trump's family believes that there are "superior people", his father especially instilled a black and white principle of "winners and losers". This influenced Donald in his professional and personal life. 2. In the early 70s Donald wanted to break out into Manhattan real estate. He needed a mentor and found this in Roy Cohn, a lawyer famous for his work in the McCarthy trials. 3. Trump was sued for Anti-Black discrimination against prospective apartment owners. There was clear evidence, therefore him and Cohn were forced to settle. However they claimed they were the victims, and announced the settlement was a victory.
Hillary Clinton 1. Clinton and her father did not get along, he was verbally abusive. The Rodham household was not a loving one. 2. Growing up in a conservative town, her liberal church leader influenced her greatly. He took their group to a Martin Luther King speech which affected her views of the world. 3. She was very successful student, attending Yale law school and securing a position on the Watergate committee. However she choose to become a senators wife. She had to change her appearance and demeanor to fit a stereotype to help her husband in the elections. She also added Clinton to her name officially to become "Hillary Rodham Clinton"
Hillary Clinton 1. She has gone through many years of different schooling, and worked on the very sensitive and secretive (at the time) Watergate court case. This does explain her desire for more privacy and secrecy, although it does not excuse the whole email scandal. 2. The ambition she developed as a child, mainly due to never being good enough for her abusive household, lead her to go to top colleges in order to study law and politics. This led her to many opportunities in the political atmosphere. 3. She was inspired by Martin Luther King Jr. and was a large supporter of him and the civil rights cause. These ideals for civil rights carry in to her present day ideals.
Donald Trump 1. He was raised in luxury, and was honestly a childhood bully. His main target was his younger brother, Freddie, and was joined in the bullying by his father. Freddie grew up feeling so inadequate that he drank himself to death. Trump thought of Freddie as being too weak to be a winner. 2. His morals have not changed since he was a young boy. The morals he learned of were of superiority to others, that there is only winners and failures and that it would not be acceptable to be a failure. His mentor when he grew older only furthered and strengthened these extreme thoughts. 3. The ambition he learned as a child in the military academy and from his father was used in order to further his extreme ideas of success and winning in order to achieve the highest status in the world of business. He did attend a business school in order to further his education.
Trump 1) He was held to high standards as a child and met most if not all of those standards 2) Raised on discipline which helped form his accomplishments and goals he has set and achieved 3) has built a huge company and has almost anything he wants which tells me he is running based on the fact that he really does want to bring this country back to the top

Hilary 1) she stood by Bill during his entire scandal 2) she lost herself in order to be a better wife and it hurt a lot of women during this Era because she showed that she was dependent on Bill 3) she attended Yale and was one of the top students so she is very well educated
Trump 1) he is extremely business minded and he went on a "real estate shopping spree" which shows how unpredictable he is 2) he had a luxurious childhood and he was a troublesome kid too but he said that he is ideally the same person he was in first grade which shows how childish he is 3) he left to a military boarding school institute which is why he became even more perseverant and likes to challenge himeself

Trump: 1) he was mentored by Ryan Colin's who is a man with no morales and loves to make people feel bad.

Hillary: 1) Went from Washington, to Arkansas, back to Washington - shows what a political life she had, wasn't going to be an accessory to Bill, controversial 2) Her childhood household was full of fighting and tension with her parents, so she didn't bring friends home, could be the start of her secrecy problems 3) Using her graduation speech as a response to the guest speaker, shows that she won't stand down but is also aggressive
Hillary Clinton: 1. Hillary has a background in politics, she has been immensely interested and involved in political activity since college. When she realized that she had interests in politics and knew that she wanted to make a change and do that for the rest of her life, she took action. She has drive and motivation for what she does because she wants to see change. 2. She studied politics and law in college, and was able to attend Yale law, a highly elite university, implying that she is very intelligent and knowledgeable 3. She served as a backbone for Bill Clinton while he ran for president and did her job as First Lady, so she already has lots of experience in the White House and the work that goes on there.

He learned to be so brutal because of his family and his brother. Maybe some voters will sympathize with him because of that.
Acussed of discriminating against black people during his early years in real estate. What few African American voters he has would probably reconsider if they became aware.
Hillary She kept her maiden name and got no credit for her work by her parents. She showed her strength and independence.
She was very inspired by Martin Luther king. Even though most people loved Martin Luther king, this will look good for her.

Trump 1. He was sent to a Military Academy. 2. Trump had the mindset of always winning, and losing wasn't an option. 3. Was brought up in a luxury lifestyle.
Hillary 1. Her father was verbally abusive towards her, and her parents fought often. 2. She studied politics and law in college, and was able to attend Yale. 3. She changed her image in order to help her husband become governor.
Trump 1. He was taught by his father that there are only “losers” and “killers” in the world (????) 2. His views on women are modeled after those of Hugh Heffner 3. He was originally more of a flashy party boy than a serious businessman
Clinton 1. Her relationship with her father wasn’t as peachy as she makes it seem, with verbal abuse causing her to develop a penchant for secrecy. 2. She changed her last name and gave up many other aspects of her individuality in order to help her husband’s political career. 3. She was an extremely successful student at Wellesley College and Yale Law School.
Trump 1. Fred trump his father had a lot to do with the way he acts and engages in business. His father taught him that there are only "losers" and "killers". 2. He was accused of discriminating against African Americans, and still hasn't admitted to it. 3. Hugh Hefner was someone he looked up to, as a result he views women as objects.
Clinton 1. She changed her appearance to help with Bill's political career. 2. She came from a family that fought often, and had a father that was verbally abusive. 3. She was an attorney on the watergate scandal.
TRUMP: 1. Trump’s upbringing and past as an elitist particularly from the influence of his father exemplify his conservative political views. Trump’s strong business persona is bound to attract voters with similar upbringings and the belief that society should be “survival of the fittest”. 2. There is particularly a controversy on Trump’s statements on women that are considered misogynistic. In this documentary the reveal of his idealization of Hugh Hefner as a teen may cause voter’s to further advocate the argument that we shouldn’t vote for Trump because he lacks respect for women. 3. Trump had 3 wives and there was lots of controversy over the Ivana and Trump when gossip spread that Trump was no longer attracted to Ivana because she had children. Such a dark past could also cause voters, especially those who consider Trump a misogynist pig to not vote for him. Trump’s publicity in the past is indeed sparking lots of negative controversy as being a successful businessman and being the president of the United States are two very different roles. HILLARY: 1. Hillary’s abusive relationship with her father and her overcoming of such an adversity would advocate the image that she is trying to spread to her supporters as the embodiment of a “strong feminine figure” in a sexist society. 2. Hillary stood by Bill throughout the scandal and was made a fool of. By continuing to stay with Bill, Hillary’s image as a strong feminine figure was truly tarnished. 3. Also in order to advocate Bill’s political campaign, Hillary changed her identity and chose to make choices such as changing her maiden name. As we talked about in class many “older” women in the voting demographic despise Hillary for her inability to stay a strong independent women and constantly having a deteriorating reputation and image.
This documentary seems liberally biased like most of the other media we see these days. Particularly because it is so much easier to disparage Trump for his melodramatic actions and controversy as a supposed “racist”, “misogynist” and “megalomaniac” than it is to attack a crooked politician who acts like she is the Mother Teresa of minorities. As a man who speaks his mind, Trump does say some stupid stuff especially if one considers the remarks he made as a cutthroat business man but there are reasons he has so many supporters beyond the uneducated white male demographic. Because people are so frustrated with politicians, the public has finally simply chosen someone who will voice the concerns of our nation and expose the corruption and abuse of the political system. I’m honestly tired of watching Hillary being praised for being a better person than Trump as so many liberals are simply voting for Hillary because “Trump is a racist bigot.”. This election honestly will lead to either another four years of nothing being done or having our country represented by a “no holds barred” ex-businessman. I feel like Hillary should be criticized and exposed just as much as Trump is right now because she has proven to be an individual who changes her views, identity and political platform based on public opinion. If Hillary is to become president then she should at least be exposed for all of the corruption and lies she has made under oath. Hillary should not be allowed getaway with having an illegal email database that has jeopardized national security and has potential information that could have led to the deaths of troops and who knows what kind of information could have been breached on her private server and what kind of results would have occurred. I feel like considering all the controversy that Trump has sparked he will probably not be elected president but Hillary is not exactly someone anyone should consider a suitable figurehead to represent our country either.

Donald learned this from his father, amongst many other "trump ideals". -trump was mentored by Roy Cohn (from the McCarthy hearings) while in manhattan and Cohnpassed on certain ideals (and his lack of morals).

Began in her childhood with her abusive parents, continued on through college years, years as a lawyer, and time in the white house as First Lady. -as a child, Hillary went to Chicago with a youth pastor and friends to see Martin Luther King Jr speak. It impacted her and helped shape how she thought of the world by giving her new ideas and viewpoints.

Donald Trump:
ReplyDelete1.Donald Trump’s family believed that there were superior people and that life was a competition. His father was hard on him and taught him that losing meant that he meant nothing. Donald was also sent to a military academy where her adopted some sexist values propagated by playboy. His classmates believe that he hasn’t changed since military academy and still holds the same views.
2.Trump’s older brother Freddie, died at a young age, partly because he was always looked at as a failure by his father and turned to alcoholism. From Freddie, Donald learned that he couldn’t be intimidated by anyone.
3.Donald’s mentor in real estate development was Roy Cohn, who had no morals. He made Donald very confrontational and to use lawsuits “like machine gun bullets.” This lawsuit defense mechanism is a weapon that Donald Trump uses against his enemies often as a threat.
Hillary Clinton:
1)Clinton changed her image and adopted her husband’s name to help him win back the governor of Arkansas position. She sacrificed her identity to help her husband.
2)Clinton gave a rebuttal to Senator Brooke and upstaged him during her college graduation. She said what everyone was thinking and this was the first time she received political attention. This inspired her to go to law school. So, even when she was a young adult, she has been outspoken and unafraid to express her views, even if they went against a senator’s.
3)Clinton failed the D.C. bar exam, but passed the bar exam in Arkansas. She took this as a sign to move to Arkansas to be with her boyfriend, Bill Clinton. She thought that she and Bill Clinton could change America. She had a vision for her and Bill Clinton and she pursued this vision.
-Lea Paragas, Block: A1

ReplyDelete2. Although he was raised privileged he was raised to be extremely hardworking and succeeded at one of the best military academies in the country.
3. He has no reason to run for president because he has nothing to gain; he is solely running to make America great again. He has nothing to gain due to his dominance in the business world and huge wealth.

3. Donald Trump was sent to a Military Acadrmy as a teenager.
Donald Trump:
ReplyDelete1) Trump's father instilled in him the beginnings of his elite, cut-throat philosophy. His father ascribed to a racehorse theory of genetics, believing that a "superior" man and a "superior" woman will have "superior" offspring.
2) Trump was sent to the New York Military Academy when he was thirteen. He thrived in the competitive environment, becoming a star athlete and was even nominated 'Ladies' Man.' The closest thing the boys at the Academy got to interactions with women was the magazine 'Playboy.' His former peers describe his personality over the years as remaining unchanged, an assessment that Trump agrees with.
3) Trump's older brother, Freddie, was harassed for years by Trump and their father for not pursuing business and joining the airline service. He became an alcoholic and died at age forty-one. Trump described his brother as "not a killer." Freddie served to sharpen Trump's resolve to push hard and not be cowed by their father.
Hillary Clinton:
1) Clinton's penchant for secrecy began at a young age. Her childhood was a far cry from the happy comedy she describes. Her father was verbally abusive and demeaning towards her, and her parents fought often. She seldom brought friends home.
2) Clinton got her first true taste of what it would be like to be a public speaker when she was a senior in high school. She gave an unscripted rebuttal to more caustic remarks made by the senator speaking at their graduation, a feat that earned her wide-spread recognition and was featured in the 'Life' magazine. Recognizing her passion, Clinton moved on to law school.
3) She changed her image (losing weight, developing somewhat of a drawl, ditching glasses) in order to help her husband become governor. In the process, she sacrificed her own identity for the sake of political gain.
Trump:
ReplyDelete1)Ever since he was a little kid his father has told him there only two types of people winners and losers and either your a winner or a loser you can't be in between
2)When he was a boy he was put into a Military Academy there he become one of the more popular kids in his class.
3)In the business world he grew by having one mentor in particular that that told him that you never lose no matter what and that he was always right.
Hillary Clinton:
1)Her parents where very abusive and got into fights a lot. They also didn't seem to care that much about her as a kid.
2)She attended many protests and was a supporter of people like Martin Luther King Jr.
3)She went through a big change in character in order to help her husband Bill become governor which meant she changed her hair, glasses, and her last name.
Hillary Clinton
ReplyDelete1. She changed her appearance to help her husband become the governor of Arkansas. She had to become the ideal politician's wife.
2. Her family was very abusive, emotionally and verbally, which caused Hillary to grow up with no real role models.
3. Her church priest took her to a Martin Luther King Jr speech and that's where she found out about the liberal ideas. She was in a rage when she found he had passed away.
Donald Trump
1. His role model was super strict and told him to never lose and to always sue and not settle during lawsuits.
2. Trump Tower had a women as the main construction person which was very rare. He said a women can work 10 times harder than a man and that they needed to prove themselves.
3. Trump went to a military academy where he liked the structure and the "no funny business" theme throughout the campus. He took this into value as he created his business. He wanted to outshine his father. The old money never approved of Trump.

Trump
ReplyDeleteHe grew up in a comfortable life but then was forced to go to military school some voters might like that he was able to change his lifestyle to overcome that
He learned to be so brutal because of his family and his brother. Maybe some voters will sympathize with him because of that.
Acussed of discriminating against black people during his early years in real estate. What few African American voters he has would probably reconsider if they became aware.
Hillary
She kept her maiden name and got no credit for her work by her parents. She showed her strength and independence.
She was very inspired by Martin Luther king. Even though most people loved Martin Luther king, this will look good for her.

*Hefner

2. He was accused of discriminating against African Americans, and still hasn't admitted to it.
3. Hugh Hefner was someone he looked up to, as a result he views women as objects.
Clinton
1. She changed her appearance to help with Bill's political career.
2. She came from a family that fought often, and had a father that was verbally abusive.
3. She was an attorney on the watergate scandal.
TRUMP:
ReplyDelete1. Trump’s upbringing and past as an elitist particularly from the influence of his father exemplify his conservative political views. Trump’s strong business persona is bound to attract voters with similar upbringings and the belief that society should be “survival of the fittest”.
2. There is particularly a controversy on Trump’s statements on women that are considered misogynistic. In this documentary the reveal of his idealization of Hugh Hefner as a teen may cause voter’s to further advocate the argument that we shouldn’t vote for Trump because he lacks respect for women.
3. Trump had 3 wives and there was lots of controversy over the Ivana and Trump when gossip spread that Trump was no longer attracted to Ivana because she had children. Such a dark past could also cause voters, especially those who consider Trump a misogynist pig to not vote for him. Trump’s publicity in the past is indeed sparking lots of negative controversy as being a successful businessman and being the president of the United States are two very different roles.
HILLARY:
1. Hillary’s abusive relationship with her father and her overcoming of such an adversity would advocate the image that she is trying to spread to her supporters as the embodiment of a “strong feminine figure” in a sexist society.
2. Hillary stood by Bill throughout the scandal and was made a fool of. By continuing to stay with Bill, Hillary’s image as a strong feminine figure was truly tarnished.
3. Also in order to advocate Bill’s political campaign, Hillary changed her identity and chose to make choices such as changing her maiden name. As we talked about in class many “older” women in the voting demographic despise Hillary for her inability to stay a strong independent women and constantly having a deteriorating reputation and image.
This documentary seems liberally biased like most of the other media we see these days. Particularly because it is so much easier to disparage Trump for his melodramatic actions and controversy as a supposed “racist”, “misogynist” and “megalomaniac” than it is to attack a crooked politician who acts like she is the Mother Teresa of minorities. As a man who speaks his mind, Trump does say some stupid stuff especially if one considers the remarks he made as a cutthroat business man but there are reasons he has so many supporters beyond the uneducated white male demographic. Because people are so frustrated with politicians, the public has finally simply chosen someone who will voice the concerns of our nation and expose the corruption and abuse of the political system. I’m honestly tired of watching Hillary being praised for being a better person than Trump as so many liberals are simply voting for Hillary because “Trump is a racist bigot.”. This election honestly will lead to either another four years of nothing being done or having our country represented by a “no holds barred” ex-businessman. I feel like Hillary should be criticized and exposed just as much as Trump is right now because she has proven to be an individual who changes her views, identity and political platform based on public opinion. If Hillary is to become president then she should at least be exposed for all of the corruption and lies she has made under oath. Hillary should not be allowed getaway with having an illegal email database that has jeopardized national security and has potential information that could have led to the deaths of troops and who knows what kind of information could have been breached on her private server and what kind of results would have occurred. I feel like considering all the controversy that Trump has sparked he will probably not be elected president but Hillary is not exactly someone anyone should consider a suitable figurehead to represent our country either.

-the Trumps believe that there are superior people and if you put two superior people together, they have superior offspring. Men better than women but a good woman was better than ten good men. Donald learned this from his father, amongst many other "trump ideals".
-trump was mentored by Roy Cohn (from the McCarthy hearings) while in manhattan and Cohnpassed on certain ideals (and his lack of morals). Donald had a picture of Roy in his drawer to show off. Roy was trumps lawyer for many many court cases and lawsuits.
Clinton:
-Hillary moved to Arkansas to be with Bill...was cut out of the political world by being a women in conservative Arkansas. Found her way back in by spearheading Bill's governor campaign after he lost reelection as governor.
-Hillary has had this air of secrecy all of her life. Began in her childhood with her abusive parents, continued on through college years, years as a lawyer, and time in the white house as First Lady.
-as a child, Hillary went to Chicago with a youth pastor and friends to see Martin Luther King Jr speak. It impacted her and helped shape how she thought of the world by giving her new ideas and viewpoints. Later on in life, King's death truly stuck with Clinton and her friends remember her reaction to his death very vividly (throwing things, crying for days)
Trump:
ReplyDelete1)He was publicly ridiculed by Obama (for his leading role in the Birther Movement) during the White House Correspondents Dinner. This public embarrassment probably lead to his decision to run for president.
2)Trump attended the New York Military Academy, which provided a structured environment he enjoyed. He was also a star athlete.
3) His older brother, Fred Jr. was seen by their father as a failure. Like him, Donald viewed Fred's inability to succeed their father as a lack of the killer instinct he possessed. Fred Jr. eventually died of alcoholism
Clinton:
1)Her family life was not warm or loving. Her parents seldom praised her for excelling academically and her mother passed her ambitions on to Hillary.
2) After failing to pass the DC bar exam, she moved to Arkansas and eventually married Bill. She was seen as an outsider by the people of Arkansas and took it very hard when Bill was not reelected. She changed her look, adopting a more traditional haircut and wardrobe. She also changed her accent to more of a southern drawl.
3) When Bill was elected President, he put her in charge of his Healthcare Bill. Public opinion swung against her due to her secretive meetings. On Hillary's Healthcare tour she was met with many angry Americans, eventually convincing her to diminish her role in creating policy.
