Overview

Analysis reveals how Trump's discourse illustrates incivility through metaphors and framing in international relations.

Key Points

  • The study identifies three main patterns: dehumanizing metaphors, transactional framing, and adversarial hyperbole.
  • Metaphors such as framing China as a 'virus' exemplify how incivility is weaponized in discourse.
  • Using Critical Discourse Analysis and Conceptual Metaphor Theory, the research analyzes speeches and tweets from Trump's presidency.
  • Findings highlight the role of populist rhetoric in reconstructing diplomacy as a zero-sum conflict.
