Hello. You forgot to provide the necessary texts to answer that question. The texts are:
And when each new wave of immigrants arrived, they faced resistance from those who were already here. They faced hardship. They faced racism. They faced ridicule. But over time, as they went about their daily lives, as they earned a living, as they raised a family, as they built a community, as their kids went to school here, they did their part to build a nation. –President Barack Obama
To any in Congress who do not believe we should enforce our laws, I would ask you this one question: What would you say to the American family that loses their jobs, their income, or their loved one because America refused to uphold its laws and defend its borders? Our obligation is to serve, protect, and defend the citizens of the United States. –President Donald Trump
Answer:
President Obana's speech is loaded with a rhetorical device called Pathos. Through Pathos, the president seeks to evoke the sentimentality of the audience so that they feel empathy for the situation of immigrants. In this speech, the president shows how immigrants are part of the country and contribute to its growth, given all the difficulties and challenges they face. In contrast, President Trump's speech also uses pathos to evoke a sense of fear towards immigrants. He mentions how some people have been damaged emotionally, economically and socially by mass immigration in the country. He also uses the device called Logos, showing that because of the negative effects of immigrants, the US must enforce immigration laws and borders.
PS. Logos is the rhetorical device that evokes logic.
