Blog stage three


In the article the author’s argument is that the stock market will soon get a wakeup call from the choices that president Trump is making this is shown in the second paragraph “But analysts now caution that Trumphoria in the stock market could soon crash into a harsh Washington reality” The author tries to persuade the opposition by proving experts testimony in paragraph three, “The stock market is completely wrong,” said Douglas Kass of hedge fund Seabreeze Partners. This shows how the author uses experts to persuade the audience. The author also uses statistics to attempt credibility in paragraph four and eleven “The bank’s stock price is up about 40 percent since Trump was eleceted, part of big rally in financial stocks on the assumption that Trump will be able to quickly roll back the Dodd-Frank financial reform act, something that Washington analysts also think will be much harder than the market seems to believe.” This shows the author using statistics to establish his credibility. Throughout the article the author tries to prove his credibility and by providing statistics and experts testimony to prove his credibility. The author’s argument against the stock market making decision that later on might turn out to be a mistake. I agree with the author. I believe that some of the trading and investments might not be the smartest idea without knowing the tax reform. The author can use more statistics and experts testimony from the opposition to be less bias and influence the audience better. By doing this the author can address the opposition.

Stage Two

Guess who is back?
On may 7th, Bruak Obama accepted an award in Boston. The former president received and award for Profile in Courage Award at the John F. Kennedy Library. The article talks about Obama and his feelings of the new healthcare law. Obama did not mention Trump at anytime, he did not want to talk about the president and his choices form the United States of America. This shows how Obama does not want to cause trouble. Comparing Trump and his Tweets to an president that sticks to facts rather then involving emotions shows a lot of who Bruak is. In the article Obama defends health care law threatened with repeal the author use of emotional appeal to persuade the reader to feel empathy for the congress men and woman who lost their chair while they fought for Obama care. Obama care was a healthcare offered to many who did not have any health care. This was a big issue to many who believed that all their taxes were being taken out of their pay check fro Obama care. Well although this may be true the government takes alot of takes that we don't know where they go. This is a real crises here in the "free country." The change of Obama and Trump has been clear, the separation of a country among the people has been significant. Former president Obama encourage congress to stop looking the other way when people need help.
