Words, man a lot of words were used during the presidential debate. NBC put together a word cloud for each candidate, some of Clinton’s top words were “Think”, “People”, and “Know”. While Trumps top words were “Country”, “Look” and “Going”. This week people are analyzing the words that each one used and what that really means in the line of their campaign. An analysis for the word “think” as one of Clinton’s top words shows that she is raising a challenge to the people to really observe themselves, the word “know” also goes along that line, asking people to discover and realize the truth in what her opponent believes. Looking at Trumps selected the word “Country” makes him seem like a patriot, wanting to stand strong for our people. While the word “Look” is to give an opportunity to restate a statement made that may have not been directly what he wanted to say. However I think the best words to come from this debate were the celebrity tweets that went on during the debate. Supporters of Donald Trump like James Woods made sure to crack on every word that came from Clinton’s mouth, from her desire to help those in poverty, to the Middle East. shonda rhimes summarized the debate in her tweet saying “Hillary: “I am prepared, educated and informed.”Donald: “I had something super mean to say but I am keeping it to myself!” #Debates2016“. Ann Coulter even took the opportunity to take a hit at the moderator saying, “Great that debate covered Trump’s taxes, income, father, ’72 lawsuit, remarks as a reality tv star…& didn’t waste any time on immigration”.
My question is, did anyone develop a greater aversion to Clinton or Trump during this debate? As I’ve been researching, anytime any form of communication happens, word aversion can begin to set into peoples hearts. I think a lot of people watching this debate were hoping to be able to realize a better candidate, but even Patricia Heaton said “In good conscience I can’t vote for either of these two…#Debates2016“. Will this ever change, will we have a definitive answer of the better candidate or will it remain to vote for the lesser of two evils.
