1-State as accurately as possible the video’s purpose for presenting this information.  

The purpose of this video is to tell the life of Donald Trump also the process he became the 45th president of the United States. In this video, people will know about Trump's life from an early age, his education, family, business and entertainment career to his presidential campaign. By presenting this information, people see the dark portrait how he transformed himself from real estate developer to reality show host and to president. The author told the stories by interviewing other people, and their opinion mostly focus on what they think about what happened. The video showed negative thoughts about Trump that he isn't meant to be president; all of his motives are revenge and hatred.

2-What is the video attempting to convey and from what perspective is it presenting the information?

 The video is trying to convey the facts and in- depth look about the life of president Donald Trump. The author provided information by interviewing some people who knew and worked with Trump for a period of time. However, the perspective that the video presented the information is negative about Trump. The video focused on one incident that Obama ridiculed Trump, and he ran for White House to revenge. We can see the implication when the narrator said “it was a moment of vindication for a candidate who had climbed back from a bitter public humiliation”.

 3-What key question can you develop from the content presented in the article?

 What are key moments that made Trump want to be the president of the United States? The video answered the question about the moment Trump want to be the president is the night at White House Correspondents dinner in 2011. The author point out the words of Roger Stones “I think that is the night that he resolves to run for president. I think that he is kind of motivated by it”. The video also gave the biography of Trump, family and his career, emphasizing the bad side in his life. They explained having a cold dad is a result of a tough and confrontational Trump. One person influenced Trump a lot is Roy Cohn. He is the one that teach Donald Trump become a “counter-puncher”. In the video’s view, Roy Cohn is not a good guy that means what Trump learned from him is negative.

 4-What are the most important ideas you would have to understand in order to understand the video’s line of reasoning?

 The most important ideas that we need to understand is the implication the author made to tell the story about Trump. Everything happened in Trump’s life made him a tough mean guy, and he is ready to fight back. By the 7th grade, he went to New York Military Academy that is a rough and tumble school. He was involved in a lawsuit about discriminate against black renters looking for apartments in his building, and Trump didn'tadmit any wrongdoing and even declared the outcome a victory. When his business went down he blamed everyone and he started to fire people. Trump is not a CEO but a promoter; he even used his relationship, divorce to make him more famous. People aspired to be just like him, and they wanted him to be president. The author gave all facts, and experience of others to tell us how Trump is as an unkind, racist person. In addition, the important ideas is how he became wealthy, also the unreasonable motivation for him to run for presidential campaign.

 5- What is the video failing to address (what might be questioned)?

 The video is failing to address the other aspects of Trump’s life. They just mention to the bad side of the affair, the divorce of Ivana. Of course, there is always good thing about a person but they did not say a word. From what the video gave us, we just missed other aspects that effect on Trump’s life, for example what made him never drink alcohol. The video should give a fair look to present all the good and bad things, so audiences can have their own opinion about the president.

 6-What consequences are likely to follow if people take the video’s line of reasoning seriously?

 If people take the video’s line of reasoning seriously, they will have their conclusion about the bad characteristic or moral that Trump has. With all the facts that the video gave, I think the author tried to argue the motivation lead Trump want to be president. The beginning of the video, they gave the evidence that Trump was being humiliated by Obama, and he hated it. After four years, in a show Trump reminded everyone about Obama’sbirth certificate, that means he never forget about what Obama did to him, and he would do something to fight back. The video emphasized theOmarosa Manigault’s saying: “Every critic, every people who disagreed or challenged him will have to bow down, and it is a revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe”. The audiences will find nothing good in a tough guy and all they see is a person with no presidential quality.

 7-What consequences are likely to follow if people ignore the video’s reasoning?

 If people ignore the video’s reasoning, people will not understand the implication author tried to make about the Trump’s motivation for president campaign. What they simply know is all the stories people told about Trump’s life, his education, and career. Maybe people will see him as a tough guy who knows how to make money out of his name. However, the video’s reasoning leads people to another side that Trump’s characteristic does not fit for president. The video implied his personal background not simply to show how tough he is but deeply that he came with an unreasonable motivation for president and he is not ready for it. 

 8-Identify the key conclusions the video comes to and presents?

The video leads to a conclusion that the result of wining the presidential election was a Trump’s successful revenge to Obama. The video tried to argue that Trump is not convinced to become president. He is wealthy, and famous. He wants to keep himself in high to be the president. Everyone knows him from TV and he is on the top of the glory. The conclusion of the video is the meeting of Trump with Obama at White House, that is the moment as author assumed Trump gave the answer to his critics and opponents.

9-What facts, experiences, or data is the video using to support its conclusions?

The video uses the facts from Trump’s family background, the opinion from people worked with him to express a bad side of him. Also, with the fact that Trump and Obama keep attack each other, the author made it the point to the motivation for Trump run the president campaign. The video talked about when Trump gets wealthy and famous on TV, his supporters said he should run for the White House. The authors implied that he had everything, he has hit the high and now he want to be president. With all the evidences the video provided, it wanted to make the point Trump is not meant to be president. He doesn’t have the quality to become the president of the United States.
