2025 Nathan D 2025 Nathan D (Sep 10 2024 11:15AM) : Most of the video was very clearly spoken and felt sincere. There were a few moments in which it was iffy but for the most part it was well spoken.

Sep 10

2025 Charlton F 2025 Charlton F (Sep 10 2024 11:20AM) : Harris is pretty specific and doesn't use many euphemisms. This makes her speech sound sincere even though she probably won't be able to carry out everything she talks about. [Edited]

Sep 10

kevin b kevin b (Sep 10 2024 11:24AM) : George Orwell is correct . I believe that all issues are political issues. However, I think Kamala Harris did a good job of using good writing and sounding relatable to her audience. more

I do think that the way it was delivered is an example of why we have to be critical of the people who have power. the things we are told can sound great but we have to watch the way they are told to us and make sure that they aren’t being insincere.

Sep 10

2025 Jack W 2025 Jack W (Sep 10 2024 11:25AM) : 17:24 . She is not explicitly saying what he will do if he becomes president but she is implying to the listener that it will not be in favor of the listener if he is the president.

Sep 10

2025 Max H 2025 Max H (Sep 10 2024 11:30AM) : Trump's speech has him claiming the US will be energy dominate and a world supplier, but he does not tell us how, he avoids the answer to his statement on purpose.

Sep 10

2025 Ellie W 2025 Ellie W (Sep 10 2024 12:50PM) : She does a very good job about being specific and her language is sincere. She doesn't use euphemisms which is good. She also gives ways she plans to do things that sound attainable.

Sep 10

2025 Elsa F 2025 Elsa F (Sep 10 2024 12:52PM) : The use of implications in Kamala's speach is broad. She is not quite as blunt as I believe George Orwell suggests.

Sep 10

2025 Grace W 2025 Grace W (Sep 10 2024 12:56PM) : I think that George Orwell's argument is proven incorrect at this point becuase Kamala hasn't used any euphemisms and directly attacks Trump. Orwell argues that all political language is about beating around the bush, but so far she hasn't done that.

Sep 10

2025 Jack F 2025 Jack F (Sep 10 2024 12:57PM) : She is clear on what she wants to do and explains why that is but is vague on how she will accomplish those things [Edited]

Sep 10

2025 Lucy H 2025 Lucy H (Sep 10 2024 12:57PM) : Kamala uses good political language especially by relating to the audience but not sugar coating any of the issues that she plans to fix.

Sep 10

Josh H Josh H (Sep 10 2024 12:58PM) : Kamal Harris uses precise language in her speech but is very vague about how she is going to get what she wants done. She never gives her plans on what she will do.

Sep 10

2025 Chance V 2025 Chance V (Sep 10 2024 12:58PM) : She seems genuine in her speech for the most part, but she spends a lot of time talking about stuff that isn't related to her potential policies.

Sep 10

2025 Elsa F 2025 Elsa F (Sep 10 2024 12:59PM) : I think it's kind of ironic how Trump says he can not tell the story of his attempted assassination. Then, he proceeded to tell the story in vivid detail. His words contradicted themselves.

Sep 10

2025 Ella S 2025 Ella S (Sep 10 2024 12:59PM) : Harris's speech is intentionally very relatable. Citizens from many classes can find inspiration, especially the working class which she refers to several times.

Sep 10

2025 Thomas M 2025 Thomas M (Sep 10 2024 1:03PM) : 14:54. Kamala is saying that this election is the most important for the future of our nation and then follows that up with a very childish remark towards Trump. Trump does the same thing so if this is the most important election. more

I’m a little worried if they continue to act like children.

Sep 10

2025 Lillian C 2025 Lillian C (Sep 10 2024 1:04PM) : Something I noticed in Kamala's speech was how she delivers a good speech, but does lack specifics in some areas such how she uses phrases without detailing or defining what they mean or how they will be achived.

Sep 10

Delaney D Delaney D (Sep 10 2024 10:48PM) : the present political chaos is connected with the decay of language... I would say that Orwell is correct because Harris gives an example of how Trump has caused chaos in the past because of his poor choice of language, causing discord to simmer.

Sep 10

Delaney D Delaney D (Sep 10 2024 10:54PM) : I think Orwell is right in that political speech and writing are largely the defense of the indefensible. I think Kamala is a great presidential candidate and she cares about defending those who are unable to share their voices (the defenseless)

Sep 10

Delaney D Delaney D (Sep 10 2024 10:59PM) : I think Orwell is right about the great enemy of clear language is insincerity. Trump says that the Dems won by using Covid to cheat (neither accurate nor relevant). His language is unclear and insincere.

Sep 10

james a james a (Sep 10 2024 11:25PM) : The speach overall was put together very well and Vice President Kamala Harris does an exceptional job at making the speech relatable. However she lacks explaining the process on how she's going to accomplish many of her goals. [Edited]

Sep 10

Delaney D Delaney D (Sep 10 2024 11:42PM) : Overall, I think Orwell is right that while some political speech is positively defensive, it is also insincere and corrupt because of the way the policies are made to protect political individuals who make wrongs.

Sep 11

2025 Ella S 2025 Ella S (Sep 11 2024 3:08PM) : Communicating with stories is very effective. She tells many stories about her life leading to where she is today in order to help her audience understand her values and from which they are derived.

Sep 12

Ted O Ted O (Sep 12 2024 10:13AM) : Kamala is a very good speaker due to her lawyer background. She does a good job of explaining what she wants to do specifically. However, I have a hard time believing her because she's been in office for more than three years.

Sep 12

2025 Deng D 2025 Deng D (Sep 12 2024 3:06PM) : Kamala Harris is very specific and clearly spoken on what she want to do, I also like how she's not afraid to address the issues we are facing and how sincere she is about it.

Sep 23

2025 Conrad B 2025 Conrad B (Sep 23 2024 1:25PM) : Kamala makes a lot of promises here but at least she seems to have a clear vision for the country's future and how to better and solve the social issues of today

00:00 0

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:45AM) : Kamala's expertise as a lawyer makes her an excellent speaker. She does a fantastic job of outlining her precise goals. But given that she has held this position for more than three years, I find it difficult to believe her.

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:45AM) : wow

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:45AM) : donald trumo dont make since

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:46AM) : VP Kamala making more since than trump

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:47AM) : Harris doesn't use a lot of euphemisms and is quite explicit. Even if she most likely won't be able to implement all she talks about at her office for more than three years, this gives her speech a genuine sound.

2025 Dylan A 2025 Dylan A (Sep 10 2024 12:59PM) : To be more relatable to the general population, Kamala uses clear and concise words when talking about her family and upbringing. This also makes her more "humanlike".

06:17 0

Sep 10

2025 Malen S 2025 Malen S (Sep 10 2024 12:59PM) : This section of the speech that Harris is giving relates to Orwell because he talks about the influence of language. Kamala's mom taught her the value of hard work and she cites the language her mother used. The likely formed some of her political ideals.

2025 Carter B 2025 Carter B (Sep 10 2024 12:57PM) : Not sure if this is at this exact timestamp or even in the video, but I know Kamala portrays herself as a "tough on crime" prosecutor, which is absolutely a sort of tired phrase at this point. more

It means a whole lot of things depending on who you ask. It either means you’re unjustly jailing people or justly keeping bad people away.

08:11 0

Sep 10

2025 Ellie W 2025 Ellie W (Sep 10 2024 12:48PM) : She has specific examples that support why she has chosen to do what she does.

Sep 10

2025 Alex D 2025 Alex D (Sep 10 2024 12:55PM) : Kamala Harris' speech has some good strengths, like how straightforward she is in her language, and how she use euphemisms. However, some of the commentary on Trump could have been cut down. She could've said a couple sentences at most to prove her point. more

Sep 10

Corrine H Corrine H (Sep 10 2024 11:23AM) : Theoretically George Orwell could argue that she is using political language to cover up some tough prosecutions or people she let go. However, she seems genuinely sincere. If the enemy of clear language, then Kamala has clear language.

Mthobisi C Mthobisi C (Sep 10 2024 12:53PM) : A lot of people are saying that Kamala is direct and explains all of her values well, except for a few certain spots. I completely agree with this; I believe I found a spot where she gets quite broad and subjective: 11:35.

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:48AM) : With a few exceptions, many claim that Kamala is straightforward and does a good job of explaining all of her values. I wholeheartedly concur; I think I've located the point at 11:35 where she becomes quite general and subjective.

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:48AM) : Why does trump want to ban obama care

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:49AM) : This making me mad

Harrison S Harrison S (Sep 10 2024 11:21AM) : Kamala is quite clear with the point that she wants to stray from the ways of Trumps presidency, this change could possibly stray from the ideas of Orwell.

Sep 10

2025 Ryan D 2025 Ryan D (Sep 10 2024 11:26AM) : Kamala did not use any euphemisms to to lighten up what she was saying, being clear to the point she was trying to make about Trump

Sep 10

2025 Henry K 2025 Henry K (Sep 10 2024 12:55PM) : Yeah, this is true! I agree that she is doing a good job at this, especially compared to some candidates who like to speak in flowery language about the evils committed on January 6

2025 Isabella H 2025 Isabella H (Sep 10 2024 12:56PM) : She is very clear when speaking and it becomes very obvious she is sincere when her language becomes it's simplest and most direct. This timing also lines up with her visual and tone of voice that shows she feels strongly about what she is saying.

18:10 0

Sep 10

2025 Carter B 2025 Carter B (Sep 10 2024 1:02PM) : to be honest it's hard to recognize any euphemisms if they are in use when the person is being relatively sincere. she seems passionate in being against Trump, so her language is pretty blunt.

18:17 0

2025 Owen P 2025 Owen P (Sep 10 2024 11:17AM) : I don't think Harris does this very much either. She is quite clear with her points.

Sep 10

Corrine H Corrine H (Sep 10 2024 11:26AM) : Kamala at this point still had yet to define her platform. Now she actually has a platform, but it's unclear how the dems are going to afford all this. As George Orwell would say, "Political writing largely consists of euphemism, and cloudy vagueness.

Sep 10

2025 Sophia L 2025 Sophia L (Sep 10 2024 12:53PM) : Throughout the video, I was trying to truly listen to what she was saying to see if I could detect any type of "Political Speech." I feel as if she is genuine about her plans for our country. She is very clearly speaking about the issues she wants to fix.

2025 Nathan D 2025 Nathan D (Sep 10 2024 11:24AM) : From what I watched he was very clear in his statements. Although, he did seem to be less clear than Kamala. This could be just his mannerism of speaking though.

Sep 10

2025 Charlton F 2025 Charlton F (Sep 10 2024 11:24AM) : Trump uses euphemisms when describing the death of his supporters at the rally.

Sep 10

2025 Rylie M 2025 Rylie M (Sep 10 2024 11:28AM) : Trump uses a lot of euphemism in his speech because he doesn't directly state how he wants to make changes or what exactly he plans to do.

Sep 10

2025 Belinda H 2025 Belinda H (Sep 10 2024 1:00PM) : I agree with you I feel like he does that quite a lot and is never direct.

Sep 10

2025 Ellie W 2025 Ellie W (Sep 10 2024 12:54PM) : Trump is vague in his speech and does not suggest many clear ways he plans to solve issues if he became president. He also uses euphemisms. I think his speech sounds insincere.

Sep 10

2025 Lucy H 2025 Lucy H (Sep 10 2024 12:54PM) : It seems that Trump communicates with the use of euphemisms. In some ways he is being indirect about his ideas.

Sep 10

2025 Chance V 2025 Chance V (Sep 10 2024 12:59PM) : While trump does talk about his policies, he doesn't actually say how he is going to go about instating/accomplishing them.

Sep 10

2025 Grace W 2025 Grace W (Sep 10 2024 1:00PM) : His speech doesn't seem very cohesive, it seems like he is just rambling. He is also very vague, which proves Orwell's argument. Unlike Kamala, he doesn't outline what he plans to do as president. In general, his speech is very unclear and hard to follow.

Sep 10

2025 Jack F 2025 Jack F (Sep 10 2024 1:01PM) : Trump is not very direct and uses euphemisms throughout his speech

Sep 10

2025 Olivia L 2025 Olivia L (Sep 10 2024 2:17PM) : He used vague wording when telling his plans for the future, and when trying to make points in his speech euphemisms seem to be his go to.

Improv Teammate (Retired) with Jayden M's edits:

Oh, he didn’t just milk it; he churned it into a full-blown, dramatic opera! Imagine him recounting the tale with a spotlight on him, orchestra swelling in the background, and every gasp and sigh perfectly timed. What do you think his grand finale would be?

Sep 10

2025 Niamh W 2025 Niamh W (Sep 10 2024 12:58PM) : I find Trumps address of the "assassination attempt" to be very insincere as he noted it was a painful remark and yet told the story in great depth as if to use it as a way to gain more support from the people and insight anger onto them.

2025 Alex D 2025 Alex D (Sep 10 2024 1:02PM) : In regards to Trump, you might notice how he talks about what he's done (or what he thinks he's done for America), and how he uses bigger words like 'substantial' to pepper his speech a bit. He also doesn't cite sources for his accomplishments.

Fletcher D Fletcher D (Sep 10 2024 11:26AM) : When Trump is talking about the war in Asia, he is very vague about what the fighting would actually be like. This makes it seem much scarier than saying predictions.

Isaac H Isaac H (Sep 10 2024 11:20AM) : When Trump is talking about how he will cut costs, he never specifies how just says that Republicans have a plan. This is similar to what George Orwell was saying and how Trump just falls back on similar phrases like slashing costs and reducing prices.

2025 Sophia L 2025 Sophia L (Sep 10 2024 12:59PM) : This speech helps me understand what Orwell was referring to. I feel Trump has a lot of issues he cares about, that he says he will work to fix. He is saying things will get done without relaying any clear plan.

Harrison S Harrison S (Sep 10 2024 11:24AM) : He is very firm on the idea that he will improve the numbers when it comes to things like energy, debt, relations, etc. It is right to the point but I wonder if this is all just dialogue to help him win the upcoming election.

2025 Jack W 2025 Jack W (Sep 10 2024 11:21AM) : I think that him talking about immigration in the US is euphemism because he is not really saying what he wants to do, he is just talking about how bad he thinks immigration is. I think it is implying something without actually saying it.

2025 Malen S 2025 Malen S (Sep 10 2024 1:00PM) : Trump at this time in his speech is talking abut border control and the admitting of illegal immigrants into the country. This relates to Orwell because he talked about being spoken for and not forming your own political views.

Sep 13

Semaj S Semaj S (Sep 13 2024 11:49AM) : At this point in his address, Trump is discussing border security and allowing illegal immigrants to enter the US. This is related to Orwell because he discussed having your voice heard and avoiding taking political positions of your own.

Benton R Benton R (Sep 10 2024 11:18AM) : Chaos is connected with the decay of language more

I believe that when Goegrge Orwell states, “Chaos is connected with the decay of language”, it is clear that when offensive terms or language used to explain why someone is wrong, is often turned into the chaos side of language. I do see why Orwell says that chaos is the reason for it because the two subjects are both heavily involved with hatred.

Benton R Benton R (Sep 10 2024 11:20AM) : The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. more

George Orwell also says that the great enemy of clear language is insincerity. I believe this would be a leading factor as to why clear language could be used this way, but I do think that what Harris is saying isn’t insincere, because it is not yet justifiable.

Trump Fact-Checking Simulator (updated 10.31.2024) with 2025 Conrad B's edits:

Let’s dive into the accuracy of former President Donald Trump’s speech and his understanding of the separation between church and state. Trump has often blurred the lines between religious and governmental roles, which raises several questions about his interpretation of this foundational principle.
