So far only the positives of the policies are being shown, the economy being highlighted at this moment, telling of the increase in jobs with the consequential decrease in unemployment. I must say, 157 million people is an impressive figure, and doubling child tax credit is also beneficial for the working class. Goes on to compare his administration, once again shows his selfish motives. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:17:59 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328088692 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328088727 He is talking about how he plans to improve life for Hispanic, Asian, and other Americans in the country.

He keeps comparing things to 60+ years ago.

It shows that the government is beyond divided and not willing to listen to one another to make the country successful. The Democrats only want to cheer for their accomplishments and not accomplishments by the Republicans. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328089879 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328089944 Why are the Republicans standing up every 10 seconds  and the Democrats looks like they don't want to be in the House Chamber! 

Trumps wants to prevent mistreatment of the veterans. He is explaining the story of Alice and her journey in prison+the aftermath when Trump helped her. Signed the First Step Act (reform sentencing law for African America, and a second chance for people). Talks about Matthew Charles (First person to be released from the First Step Act). ]]> 2019-02-06 02:25:26 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328089944 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090041 He tells a story about Alice and tells how unfair the criminal system is and how much it needed be changed and how our system can put some good people away. Then tells the first step act law to reform laws about conviction and tells how non violent laws conviction , people should be able to go back into society well. He gives these examples to show that how important his action are and how good his actions are doing in our society. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090041 amr010403 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090067 Trump is getting sentimental. He is fixing the criminal justice system. Non-violent offenders will get the chance to get there sentence lowered. “First step act”. I think this is a good idea with the act because it does give people a second chance to learn from their mistake. I’m sure later down the road there will be some flaws against it but at the moment I can’t think of anything bad about this. 
He is now talking about the Mexican border. He thinks it is a threat to Americans because of the people who want to come into the country illegally. I do not have a comment about this because I am bias on this topic. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090067 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090241 The Democratic Party seems almost selective on what they choose to stand up and applaud for, based on whatever Trump is saying at the moment; if there is something that benefits their agenda or image, they will rise and applaud because to do anything otherwise could ruin their reputation. But if it doesn't benefit them, they'll stay seated and emotionless. The Republicans, however, seem to applaud anything and everything Trump says. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:26:53 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090241 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090402 Trump is praising his criminal reform policies. By recognizing Alice Johnson, Trump makes it a sentimental reasoning behind his success in the criminal reform policies. The first step helps African Americans who reformed themselves in prison, which a great step towards unity.  This is exactly what the Democrats and Republicans wanted. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:27:56 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328090402 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091132 Congress has ten days to sign off on the southern border that will prevent the cartel and others. Wants people to come legally (Trump sent 3,000 more troops to the border). Calls immigrants "aliens". Trump acknowledges Elvin Hernandez. Trump is gaining support for his criminal reform policies. He uses plenty of statistics to back his claims and what he is saying.
Trumps expresses his opinion on the southern wall, he promised he will get it built(Steel wall). San Diego is considered a dangerous city in the eyes of Trump but if the walls are built it can save lives. He tries to rally the crowd to support him. A lot of women are standing up to show their appreciation. More women serving in Congress.]]> 2019-02-06 02:32:51 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091132 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091150 Mentions wall, his biggest agenda. The two examples from his criminal reform changes both add a sense of humanity to the man, and show how he is actually helping. Then transitions to wall, saying that Mexicans are coming in illegally. The southern border seems to be a huge problem to Trump, as he expresses his thoughts passionately. Legal immigrants also seems to bode well among most of the people in the room. Relates to working class, saying everyone suffers from the illegal immigrants. He uses the ideas of immoral acts to show how terrible this problem is, when other solutions are still available. Uses this as a platform to speak his heart before all, as the State of Union was meant for? ]]> 2019-02-06 02:32:59 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091150 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091206 He tells how much good his done to down grade the caravans in mexico and to make his actions on the wall to look good and necessary for the nation and still tries to downgrade the immigration system. He does this by saying that the immigrants are hurting us as a result even though they are hurting us. then tries us to make us feel bad for some of the victims of the immigrants from the border wall and he is really trying to persuade democrats into believing that the border wall is necessary for the american good]]> 2019-02-06 02:33:25 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091206 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091227 Trump is addressing the issues at the southern border, and creating a strong immigration system. Trump praises legal immigrants who help strengthen our society. The Democrats seem to not want legal immigration and only want illegal immigration (not applauding to Trumps claim that "immigrants should be law abiding citizens".) Donald Trump is discussing what happens along the way to the border. He wants to defend women and girls who are being used as prostitutes and involved in sex trafficking by strengthening the southern border. Donald Trump claims he will fight for those that were killed due to illegal immigrants. Trump will be placing drug detecting devices, more law enforcement (all asked for by Democrats) and a wall that he promised the American public throughout his campaign and presidency. The wall is a key factor as to why many people voted for him in the 2016 elections. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:33:40 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091227 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091320 Here is a great example of Trump's ability to sway the minds of the masses and influence the population's perspective on things. Alice Johnson and Matthew Charles were used for Trump's agenda and have a criminal record, whilst white veterans were used as heroes. Why does he use the former and what they've gone through for the sake of what he promotes, while the latter gets to be viewed as heroes? It's noteworthy to see how Trump uses people to maintain his impact on this country and the people living in it. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:34:26 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091320 amr010403 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091613 He is talking about human trafficking and also drugs that come into our country. I feel like he keeps blaming crimes on the Mexico border like the two people who were murdered and drugs. “Common sense proposal”- drug detection, physical barrier/wall and more control. He wants his wall built. It’s not a speech without bringing up his wall. He is trying to justify why there should be a wall built. For example the San Francisco border wall where the immigrant number went down. “Walls work and walls save lives” sure it might make is harder for immigrants to come into the country but I feel people will just find another way to get in. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:36:30 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328091613 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328092714 Again, Trump continues to use pawns for his manipulation politics; Elvin Hernandez, for example ---whose family was undocumented, was used for Trump to make his argument that the wall needs to be built to keep out "illegal aliens", as he puts it. He also seems to reflect problems of America that are none other than America's fault on undocumented immigrants, who only come to the US for a better life. He believes immigrants are bad for the country and that they just bring drugs and crime and that they will only harm us. ]]> 2019-02-06 02:45:21 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328092714 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328092808 Trump is using facts to show that walls work by referring to El Passo which is one of the safest cities in the nations. Trump is demanding for safety in the country for AMERICAN citizens. Trump is praising women for fulfilling many jobs that both Trump and the Republicans cheered loudly for and celebrated with the Democratic women. Both Republicans and Democrats are unified when praising the accomplishments of women, (so many in Congress and ever before).

Trump claims this is a necessity of the American government. Trump wants to lower the cost of healthcare ( An idea supported by Democrats). He is appealing to all American citizens around the country who cannot afford healthcare. Trump remarks on how progress had been made on HIV and AIDS which is a struggle in many American citizens. He uses the words "together" to help unify the government. Trump is now addressing the fight on childhood cancer, and shows a 10 year old girl, Grace , who asks for her friends for donations.

However, there are many Afro-Venezuelans, when asked about the state of their country, who believe that Maduro and his leadership and the plans he has for Venezuela would actually aid them a lot.

North Korea actually has not stopped, they are still a very pertinent threat, and a secret base of nuclear heads production was only recently discovered which was not being taken down, who know how many more they have. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:08:22 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328095829 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328096058 Donald Trump is encouraging the American government and people that we will remain free and never be a socialist country. Trump claims socialism has caused poverty and lead to a revolution in Venezuela. The Democrats agree with the Revolution in Venezuela but don't seem to agree that socialism is bad. The Republicans agree on both aspects. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:09:39 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328096058 raz4370pway https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328096581 If you have posted at least 6 times and you are not willing to continue, you will get the extra credit without waiting for the Democratic response.  This has gone on longer than expected.  Thank you for participating!

It is smart to pull out troops from that nation to now end the death of the US Soldiers, but the conflict has most definitely not ended between radical Islamist groups and their governments. The religious separation after the end of the Ottoman Empire with the creation of the Middle East has caused these issues, and until religious boundaries are set up with the negotiations between these countries, there is no way these problems are ending. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:13:24 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328096583 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328096823 Stacy Abrams represents the Democrats. Connects to the public by sharing her stories from her childhood. Explains how the power and strength of Americans come from handwork. She believes that hope is important and using the government shutdown as a stunt. The Republicans only cares about their own lives.She wants people to "tackle" gun safety issues. Stacy Abrams connects to other presidents and wants to embrace immigrants. She doesn't not want walls and wants to welcome immigrants. Created Fair Fight for citizens (Explain their vision for the country), addresses racism.]]> 2019-02-06 03:14:56 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328096823 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328097098 First tries to appeal all people low to high income religious or not and high education, and tells that community and unity between states is the key to making a better America, and should stop the arguing between the states and blamed the president for this decision and blamed republicans too. Then tells everybody should get an education, and somewhat tell the problems in California about teachers not getting enough money, and that education is decreasing and kids should worry about school not guns and downgrade trump on his tackling on gun laws. Then tells that America is built on immigrants and tells the problem about health and people not getting enough money to pay there medicine.  Then the problems on about voting rights and that everybody not getting enough. Tells that president trump is doing a bad job and not supporting his people and tells that everybody should work together more and the president should admit to his sins.]]> 2019-02-06 03:16:57 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328097098 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328098520 At this point it sounds as though Trump speaks to hear his own voice. His conclusion is strong though, wrapping it up with the idea of being united. He says there is much more opportunity ahead, and we must be as American as ever to be the best nation possible. We have to reach the peak that this nation has ever seen. We have to go forward together, his ideology is not wrong but his actions contradict this idea. He has spoken only of his victories and none of his losses or his issues within the nation. He has not spoken about the most pressing matters like gun control or the longest governmental shutdown in US history. God Bless America. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:27:17 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328098520 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328099319 Trump's conclusion was very powerful and unifying. He encourages greatness and liberty in all American citizens. He wants us to focus on the American imagination and keep the America at heart. He wants us all to put America first and be the greatest nation in the world. His leaders are not in sync with him on conflicts in the Middle East and North Korea. The only way for America to be great is if we put the needs of our nation and citizens first. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:32:02 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328099319 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328099779 She uses faith, service and responsibility as factors. She says that when times are tough we will not be alone. She addresses the struggle of America through the government shutdown. She blames the president and republicans for the shutdown, when in reality, both political parties are at fault. She addresses the problem of gun control and school shootings. She is campaigning for the Democrats and targeting the Republicans for everything. Stacey Abrams seems to only address Democrats and not the country. She is addressing the problems with voting but ties it into a campaign for herself. She addresses problems with racism, which is still a problem in America decades after the Civil Rights Movement. Everyone needs to be held accountable for their actions. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328099779 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328100873 Good, strong start, spoke of unity and faith together. Speaks of government shutdown, criticizing the president for the shutdown and their selfishness. Saying their joint commitment is to the nation and its people. She also speaks on safer schools, another huge problem in the nation. Says we all need to embrace immigrants and not walls, saying hard work creates a powerful nation. Talks about actual action, literally everything she says is against what Trump said. Everyone needs to work together, and everyone is accountable for actions taken by anyone. We need to stand and work together to solve the issues in this nation. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:42:09 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328100873 https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328101144 Stacey Abrams believes in a hardworking America that upholds unity, liberty, and freedom and she corroborates this belief with a story about her family, which was a great unifying strategy. She thinks of the government shutdown as a stunt by Trump. She talks about better healthcare, fair-minded judges, school shootings, and gun control. However, she says none of these ambitions are possible if voter suppression continues to flourish, especially in the South. She wants to welcome immigrants and not build the wall. She says that even though she disagrees with many of Trump's approaches to America's problems, she doesn't have any desire to see him fail. She believes in America a lot and wants to see this country grow, improve, and succeed with guaranteed rights for all Americans. ]]> 2019-02-06 03:44:25 UTC https://padlet.com/raz4370pway/fhmvjshq8qja/wish/328101144
