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.

"A great lion of a warrior" is an example of a ___?<br> simile<br> metaphor<br> couplet
Nesterboy [21]
Hey there!

"A great lion of a warrior" is an example of a metaphor.
It wouldn't be a simile because a simile is a sentence that uses the words "like" or "as", it wouldn't be a couplet because a couplet are two lines that rhyme.

Final answer:
The first option.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

There was no turning back now. Steven had said what he had said, and it was out there now. He could see the tears well up in Val
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Sensitive

Explanation:

As indicated in the excerpt, Valerie was a strong-willed woman who stood her ground on matters. So, it was a bit surprising when she became teary as a result of Steven's words. She became sensitive or delicate instead of tough and unmoved which was how she was normally known to be.

A sensitive person easily responds to other's actions. In other words, they are delicate. That was the same attitude portrayed by Valerie in this excerpt.
