Recommended: Democrat republican comparison

I consider myself a Democrat so I have always seen the Republican party in a bad light. This past year as I have started to pay even more attention to politics since I will be voting for the first time this year and I would like to be informed when I do. If you're following the campaigns, or even if your not then it is impossible not to miss the train wreck that is Donald Trump. I will never understand how he made it so far when he is the punchline of every political joke. Even with his bigoted views, extreme ignorance of his own privilege, as in the case of (“my father gave me a small loan of a million dollars,"(Diamond). and total lack of government experience he is still seen as a plausible option for president. In Nate Silver's article, …show more content…

Is he worse or better than Donald Trump? While many Republicans believe he worse is I’m not sure I agree. The only reason that Republicans seem to dislike him is the fact that he called them names and their feeling were hurt. Honestly, though the answer doesn’t matter, the real issue is that this question must be asked, people picking the future president based off who could do less damage. I’m not the only one who considered this question, do a quick search for “is Cruz worse than Trump?” on google and you will see tons of articles with the same name. It’s strange to see such conflict in a party not over who’s better but who’s least bad. This is proof that the Republican party is failing in this election cycle as Nate Silver suggested.
There is another option left for conservatives who aren't as extreme as Trump or willing to settle for Cruz. Peter Beinart of the Atlantic, even suggested that liberals vote for Rubio in the GOP primaries in order to ensure that Trump does not get the Republican nomination. Beinart argues that Rubio unlike Trump “respects the Constitution.”(Beinart) Many Democrats may believe that it doesn’t matter if Trump is nominated because there’s no way Trump will win the election and will split the republican party. However, Beinart argues that this thinking is “reckless,” as there is no way to guarantee Trump

    Ted Cruz is a fairly strong contender for the Republican nomination at the moment and has some definite strengths. His first strength is his fervent support of and commitment to upholding the Constitution, especially the First and Second Amendment. He worked as a lawyer prior to becoming a senator and is well versed in constitutional law. Another strength is his strong conservative ideals, which makes him popular among the Tea Party and evangelical voters, especially when it comes to issues such as abortion, marriage equality, gun rights, immigration and more.

The establishment runs the Republican Party. They are the ones who lose major elections. The leadership of the Republican Party shifts the blame to conservative wing of the Republican Party; however, it is the moderate wing of the Republican Party who loses elections.

  • Mr. Frank Persuasive Essay

    1035 Words  | 3 Pages

    Wisps of burnt-out curtains drape over shattered window frames, fluttering helplessly like a bird with injured wings. Pieces of wood collapse snapping once they hit the ground. Smoke swirls around in the wind. No sound can be heard except for the occasional sobs escaping the chapped lips of people visiting what is left of their homes. The once busy city of Amsterdam is now nothing but a city of forgotten souls. In 1942, the Franks and the Van Daans moved into a warehouse located in Amsterdam to escape the perilous world outside, where the Holocaust was taking place. Jews like the Franks and the Van Daans had their rights taken away from them. The Gestapo, the police working for the Nazis, rounded up people to be sent to concentration camps, where people worked to death. Margot Frank was one of them. Many Jews had to leave the country to escape, while the two families, and later on a man named Dussel, lived on the top floor of the warehouse called the Secret Annex. Living in such a small space and having sparse food with so many people was not easy. On weekdays, not a noise was to be made otherwise the workmen below would hear them. Food and other items had to be brought in by Miep and Mr. Kraler, who risked their lives to help the members of the Secret Annex. To keep herself company, Anne Frank wrote in her diary almost every day. Later on, her diary was published, and two authors decided that they would write a play based on the published diary, named The Diary of Anne Frank. Goodrich and Hackett created memorable characters in their play. Among these people, Otto Frank stood out, who emerged as a good leader because he put himself before others, made rough decisions when problems rose, and stayed positive and optimistic even dur...

  • Unveiling Trump: A Delve into his Troublesome Traits

    In the midst of one of the most controversial presidential elections in history, both political parties are struggling to prove that their candidate is the best choice. Clinton and Trump’s disapproval ratings are very low, but one has to ask, is there really a lesser evil to choose from? While Clinton has had her own fair share of past discrepancies, Trump’s track record proves much more troublesome. Donald Trump has proven to be an untrustworthy presidential candidate because of his misogynistic actions, his racial bias, and his corrupt business history. During the Republican debate on August 6, 2016, Trump had a falling out with Fox correspondent Megyn Kelly after she questioned him about some of his comments on women, where he referred to them as “’fat pigs’, ‘dogs’, ’slobs’, and ‘disgusting animals’,” (Bahadur).

    It all started when Republican candidate Donald J. Trump began to make accusations to one of his fellow party members. According WND news, Trump targeted candidate Ted Cruz by stating that Ted was not born within the United States and was born in Canada. Since being born in the United States was one of the few requirements of becoming president, Ted Cruz might be facing lawsuits if Trump’s statement is true. This would result in Cruz’s campaign to be plummeting further. This technique may be useful in boosting your popularity, but making accusations over a person’s background of their birth, makes you unpopular to people who are very sensitive to accusations.

  • American Party Xenophobic

    461 Words  | 1 Pages

    I believe this because the two largest candidates are sort of xenophobic. The first and most popular candidate I will be talking about is Donald Trump. Donald Trump is very xenophobic he wants to ban all Muslim travel to the US and wants to keep immigration low. Donald Trump beliefs resemble the American Party, except for keeping slaves. Trump has a belief where because this is America we should speak English. This is similar to the American Party, because they wanted to keep our values American. Also, some of his views are because of the economy. He wants to keep Mexicans out because he thinks that they steal jobs away from Americans. Whether or not this is true it resembles the American Party. Ted Cruz is similar, but is much less Xenophobic. He is similar with Trump because he wants to keep Mexican immigration at a low, but Cruz does not want to eliminate immigration entirely. Ted Cruz’s reasons behind this are economical ones, like the American Party. I am not trying to say that these candidates would support the American Party it is just that their reasoning behind their actions are the same as the American
