The book analyzes rhetorical devices used in six speeches by Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump during the 2016 election campaign. It aims to identify frequently employed devices and their contexts, revealing each speaker's rhetorical skills through critical discourse analysis. Key figures examined include metaphor, metonymy, hyperbole, and pronouns, with a focus on metaphor and pronouns as vital in political discourse. The study highlights how political orators use these tools for persuasive impact and illustrates how ideological viewpoints are conveyed through specific linguistic features.
