Chapter 978
When Trump first announced his participation in the Republican Party’s internal election, no one cared about him and was happy to see his participation.
Because everyone thought that this guy was just here to run with him and that he could bring some fun to everyone during the campaign. , like a clown, can also increase ratings and public attention to the Republican Party.
But when Trump gradually established an advantage, they couldn’t sit still.
“”Politics” is a game for the elite, and”president” is the ultimate reward. How can a”clown” get it?
So the attack began.
The mainstream media began to be filled with news that was unfavorable to Trump, whether it was pro-Republican media or Pro-Democratic media. (No wonder Trump likes to express his opinions on the Internet in the original timeline. -)
Some people say that Trump is the Hitler of the United States, and some people say that Trump is Belushi. Turney, anyway, he is either going to establish a dictatorship or an oligarchy.
There was a recent report that the former director of the CIA told reporters that if Trump is elected president, the military may disobey and the United States may explode. Coup!
Why is such a suspected racist with absurd ideas and weird remarks supported by so many people?
In fact, the main reason is that more and more ordinary people participate in the election.
This is from the level of the speeches of previous American presidents. It can be seen.
Since the founding of the United States, the rhetoric used by politicians has become simpler and simpler.
The farewell address of George Washington, the first president of the United States, in 1796 reached the graduate level (level 17.9).
Abraham Lincoln 1863 The language of the”Gettysburg Address” was grade 11.
John F. Kennedy’s famous”Ask not what your country can do for you” in his 1961 inaugural address was grade 13.9.
And today the United States Most State of the Union speeches, including Oguan Hai’s speech, are only at the 8th grade level.
American historian Jeff Shesol (Jeff Shesol) once wrote the speech for former American President Bill Clinton.
He said in 2014 In an interview with”The Atlantic Monthly”, he said:”This change can easily be regarded as a lower level of the White House, but it is actually a sign of democratization.
In the early days, presidents could also imagine that they were addressing the same people as themselves: educated, civic-minded landowners.
At that time, only these people had the right to vote.
But as time goes by, and more and more people have the right to vote, the president’s speeches need to take into account a wider audience.
”
“The leader’s job is not to educate the public,” Jon Favreau, who wrote the Olympic speech, told The Boston Globe》，”But to inspire and convince them.”
For ordinary people in the United States, they who have only received”happy education” cannot understand those”gorgeous rhetoric” and”meaningful sentences.”
One obvious fact is: in this highly praised speech and 140 In the age of Twitter, candidates must use concise and powerful language to attract voters’ attention.
《The Boston Globe analyzed 19 presidential candidates in the United States on the 20th and found that those candidates who used the most elementary language performed best in the polls, while those who piled complex rhetoric into their speeches Worst performer in polls.
Here’s a look at the best and worst: Republican candidate Donald Trump announced his candidacy using fourth-grade language, according to a Boston Globe analysis.
But he exceeded everyone’s expectations and was leading in various polls almost from the moment he announced his candidacy.
The only person who can speak at a 10th grade level is Jim Gilmore, the former governor of Virginia and a Republican candidate. Never heard of who he is?
Given his somewhat grandiose speech, it’s perhaps not surprising that we don’t know who he is.
According to the results of the American Public Policy Poll, the former governor’s approval rate is less than 1%, which is too low to squeeze into the Republican warm-up debate.
Of course the elites don’t like Trump, but ordinary people do, and they are the majority.
This is why Trump is so far ahead in the election.
Ivanka called Martin to announce the news.
At the same time, I would like to thank Martin for giving this idea to his father.
“Martin, you are awesome, how did you come up with this?”Ivanka said excitedly
“It’s a very simple data analysis. Find the common points and differences among the winners of previous presidential election speeches, and then sort them out systematically to get the results. In fact, many people have already noticed this trend, but they just don’t take it seriously.”

“Nowadays, the pace of life is getting faster and faster, and simpler language expressions may help reduce voters’ anxiety. At a time when the world’s problems are more complex and dangerous than ever, perhaps Americans want a confident leader who can offer simple, or at least simple-sounding, solutions.”
“Moreover, in the era of fragmented information acquisition, no one likes to listen to long and profound lectures. Ordinary people are not idle scholars. They have to be busy with their lives. What they like to hear is straightforward and concise, and they can do it without thinking. A clear statement……”
On the other end of the phone, Ivanka turned on the sound of her mobile phone. A bunch of Trump’s staff were sitting around the mobile phone like elementary school students.
….. 0
Trump pouted and said seriously:”Listen carefully, listen, and learn from the thinking of smart people.”
After hearing Trump’s words, Martin immediately understood the situation on the other side, so he said:
“Hey guys, no need for this. I don’t get all the credit, I just provided an idea, and it’s you who really turned it into results.”
“The sentences you designed for Mr. Trump are very well worded, simple, crude and impactful, such as ‘Make America Great Again’’、‘I’m really rich’、‘Politicians all talk but don’t do anything, etc. They all have ideas.”
Trump grinned, and the staff around him also laughed.
Trump said:”Martin, what do you think of my idea of building a wall on the US-Mexico border? Isn’t it great?”
Martin:”……”
Trump added:”By the way, I also refuted the wind energy and solar energy that those idiot environmentalists touted. These things definitely can’t solve the problem. Green energy and political correctness are just bullshit.
” Pu’s tone was very dismissive. He said:”Oil and natural gas are the main forces. Moreover, why do we let OPEC set the price for oil, and the United States will pay whatever price it sets? This is not okay.”
Martin nodded. :”This is a good point of view, and it is in line with the expectations of the people (Martin himself).”
