The rhetorical devices that President Trump uses in this excerpt are options 3 and 5.

Trump uses overstatement in sentence number 5.

Overstatement is saying something to lay emphasis or give a profound meaning, as to make the point more important than it is. As a result, Trump uses overstatement when he puts emphasis on the word America.

Moreover, he uses repetition in sentences number 6 and 7.

Repetition is a rhetorical device in which the person repeats the same word or phrases several times, to make the idea more concrete or memorable. This device appears when Trump uses the word "protect" multiple times in his speech.

Usimov [2.4K]
I would say the correct answer is B. Then he sprang out of bed, and shook himself violently! No, no nose any more!
This sentence differs from the other ones that you've given us because it seems more active, more lively. There is something actually happening here, and the exclamation marks show that it is happening fast. All of these together make the sentence somewhat amusing, at least as opposed to the other ones here.
