Cultural context

The use of dark clouds potentially foreshadows the future events of while Trump is in power. This positions the American population to blame for Trump's presidency. Ellipsis- foreshadowing. The use of Binary opposites in the front cover, "you" and "them" can represent the global impact of his presidency. therefore showing a particular significant ideology.

within the article and the front cover, there has been a highlight of immigration concerns and loss of jobs as a central to votesrs decisions to vote for Trump. This highlights the newspapers viewpoints.
