Abstract

The current study discusses a rhetorical analysis of the presidential debates that take place between Trump and Biden, it focuses on exploring the various rhetorical strategies used by candidates to win political elections. The study aims to analyze the debates in order to know the rhetorical strategies through which politicians try to justify their ideas and convince their audience about their electoral campaigns. The study relies on the qualitative approach by applying Corbett's strategies(1965), as a basic framework for analysis. The results show that the candidates used various rhetorical strategies to convince the people about their political plans. They used irony as a device of convincing that the competitor is an incompetent to lead the country and thus enhance the chances of winning the elections.
