Exaggeration/Hyperbole 80%
Absolute superlative claim that the border is the most secure in all of history, beyond what evidence supports.
“the Most Secure Border in History”
Loaded Language 65%
Emotionally charged label 'Criminal Illegal Aliens' is used to frame immigrants negatively rather than convey neutral facts.
“Criminal Illegal Aliens”
Glittering Generalities 55%
Vague, positive slogan implying safety without specifics.
“MAKING AMERICA SAFE AGAIN”
Card Stacking 55%
Announces a selective list of only 'victories', implying a one-sided positive record while omitting any failures or complications.
“some of the Department’s victories for the American people”
Appeal to Fear 65%
Framing the policy as 'protecting Americans' from dangerous groups implies a threat that needs a defensive response.
“Protecting Americans from the Worst of the Worst Illegal Aliens and Criminals”
Appeal to Prejudice 55%
Pairing 'Illegal Aliens' with 'Criminals' links an immigrant-status group with criminality, playing on distrust of that group.
