When Trump just announced his participation in the Republican Party's internal election, no one cared about him and was happy to see his participation.

Because everyone thought that this guy was just here to run with him. He could entertain everyone during the election, like a clown, and could also increase the ratings and the public's attention to the Republican Party.

But when Trump gradually established his advantage, they couldn't sit still.

"Politics" is a game for the elite, and "president" is the ultimate reward. How can a "clown" get it?

So the attack began.

The mainstream media began to be filled with news that was unfavorable to Trump, whether it was pro-Republican media or pro-Democratic media. (No wonder Trump liked to express his opinions on the Internet so much in the original timeline.-)

Some people say that Trump is the Hitler of the United States, and some people say that Trump is Berrustni. Anyway, he is either going to establish a dictatorship or an oligarchy.

There is also a recent report that the former director of the CIA told reporters that if Trump is elected president, the military may disobey orders and a coup may break out in the United States!

Why does such a suspected racist with absurd ideas and weird remarks receive so much support?

In fact, the main reason is that more and more ordinary people are participating in the election.

This can be seen from the speech level of successive US presidents.

Since the founding of the United States, the words used by politicians have become simpler and simpler.

The first president of the United States, George Washington, reached the graduate level (17.9) in his farewell speech in 1796.

The language of Abraham Lincoln's "Gettysburg Address" in 1863 is at the 11th grade level.

The famous sentence "Don't ask what your country can do for you" in John Kennedy's inaugural address in 1961 is 13.9.

And now most of the State of the Union speeches in the United States, including Obama's, are only at the eighth grade level.

American historian Jeff Shesol once wrote a speech for former US President Bill Clinton.

In an interview with The Atlantic in 2014, he said: "It's easy to think that this change means that the level of the White House has become lower, but it is actually a sign of democratization. In the early days, presidents could still assume that the people they were speaking to were just like them: educated, civic-minded landowners. At that time, only these people had the right to vote. But as time went on, more and more people had the right to vote, and the president's speech needed to consider a wider audience."

"The task of a leader is not to educate the public," Jon Favreau, who wrote O'Connor's speech, told the Boston Globe, "but to inspire and persuade them."

For ordinary Americans, they who have only received "happy education" can't understand those "gorgeous words" and "implied"Deeply meaningful sentences".

An obvious fact is that in this era of popular speeches and 140-character tweets, candidates must use concise and powerful language to attract voters' attention.

The Boston Globe analyzed 19 presidential candidates in the United States on the 20th and found that those candidates who used the most basic language performed best in the polls, while those who piled up complex words in their speeches performed worst in the polls.

Let's take a look at who is the best and the worst: According to the analysis of the Boston Globe, the language used by Republican candidate Donald Trump when he announced his candidacy was only at the fourth grade level.

But he exceeded everyone's expectations and has been in the leading position in various polls almost since he announced his candidacy. .

The one who used words at a 10th grade level was former Virginia governor and Republican candidate Jim Gilmore. Who haven't you heard of?

Considering his slightly exaggerated speeches, it's probably not surprising that you don't know who he is.

According to the results of the American Public Policy Poll, the former governor's approval rating is less than 1%, so low that he couldn't even make it to the Republican warm-up debate.

Of course, the elites don't like Trump, but ordinary people do, and they are the majority.

This is why Trump was able to lead the election by a wide margin.

Ivanka called Martin to announce the good news.

At the same time, she thanked Martin for giving her dad this idea.

"Martin, you are awesome. How did you come up with this idea?" Ivanka said excitedly.

"It's a simple data analysis. Find the similarities and differences among the winners of the speeches in previous presidential elections, and then systematically sort them out to get the results. In fact, many people have already noticed this trend, but they just don't take it seriously. ”

“Now the pace of life is getting faster and faster, and simpler language may help alleviate voters' anxiety. When the world's problems become more complex and dangerous than ever before, perhaps Americans hope that a confident leader can provide simple solutions, or at least simple-sounding solutions. ”

“And in the era of fragmented information, no one likes to listen to long and profound speeches. Ordinary people are not those idle scholars. They have to work hard for their lives. They like to hear straightforward and concise speeches that can be understood without thinking...”

On the other end of the phone, Ivanka turned on the loudspeaker of her mobile phone, and a group of Trump's aides sat around the phone like elementary school students.

Trump pouted and said seriously: "Listen carefully, listen, and learn the thinking of smart people."

Martin heardAfter hearing Trump's words, he immediately understood the situation on the other side, so he said:

"Hey, guys, there's no need to be like this. The credit is not all mine. I just provided an idea, and it was you who really turned it into results."

"The sentences you designed for Mr. Trump are very well-worded, simple and rough, and very impactful, such as "Make America Great Again", "I'm Really Rich", "Politicians Are All Talk and No Action", etc., all very thoughtful."

Trump grinned, and the staff around him also laughed.

Trump said: "Martin, what do you think of my idea of ​​building a wall on the US-Mexico border? Isn't it great?"

Martin: "..."

Trump said again: "By the way, I also refuted the wind and solar energy touted by those idiotic environmentalists. This stuff definitely can't solve the problem. Green energy and political correctness are bullshit."

Trump's tone was very disdainful. He said: "Oil and natural gas are the main force. Moreover, why do we let the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries set the price of oil? What price does it set, and the United States will pay the same price? This is not okay."

Martin nodded: "This view is good, and it is in line with the expectations of the people (Martin himself)."
