B. Soon the article started to touch a lot on Donald Trump.The author started wondering how
Donald Trumps speech against Mexicans could really raise the anger in people and even cause
movements.People would even ask him how the people that like Trump and will vote for him
could have their minds changed,as to which the author explains that theres no way that it could
be possible.The only way would be through deep person-to-person interaction and a lot of
listening.
C. The article then turned to look at people of color.In 2008 he went door-to-door talking about
how hispanic immigration was overwhelming the american culture, how black neighborhoods
were all full of nothing but crime and how people of color didnt let people talk about any ot
that.In that small election the author won 60% of the vote.That sixty portion of the American
public made it clear that they felt betryaed and they wanted a president that promises to ban
Muslims because of terrorism, mistrust in immigrates,and want a very harsh form of control over
them.It should be very important for people to unserstand that some proposals that Trump
makes can be and cannot be feared of.But with him in office now, we have to protect those who
are threatened by this administration. Theres a lot of people who still dont understand how
trump in the office should be worrisome, and thats because they dont see that Trumps callouts
can be very destructive to the entire nation.
