<br>Former President Donald Trump condemned an unholy alliance aimed at denying him another term in the White House. In his telling, Never Trumpers and Charles Koch through Americans for Prosperity are conspiring with globalists and communists to encourage independents to support Haley in the GOP's primary.
<br>Ms. Haley talks about countering United States adversaries while Mr. Trump looks inward, consumed by grievances and promising retribution against domestic critics.
Mr. Trump is the same person who brought shame upon the country at Helsinki, when he refused to condemn Russia for interfering in the 2016 election; after Charlottesville, when he said 'there were very fine people on both sides' of violent clashes around a racist march; and on Jan. 6, 2021, when he encouraged Capitol invaders in his quest to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
Mr. Trump could well be more dangerous now than he was in 2016 and 2020 because he has had time to plan and avoid what he considers mistakes from his first term, such as picking attorneys general who Mr. Trump felt were not adequately loyal to him.

Deception
(50%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author uses the phrase 'unholy alliance' to describe two different scenarios: one where Russia, China and Iran are working together against democracy and human freedom; and another where Never Trumpers and Charles Koch are conspiring with globalists and communists to deny Donald Trump a second term in office. This is an example of deceptive language as the author uses the same phrase for two completely different scenarios. Secondly, the article presents both Nikki Haley's argument that Republicans should focus on countering their adversaries and Donald Trump's argument that he is being targeted by a conspiracy to deny him another term in office. This is an example of deceptive language as it implies that these two arguments are mutually exclusive when they are not. Thirdly, the article presents several examples of Mr. Trump's past actions such as his refusal to condemn Russia for interfering in the 2016 election and his comments about Charlottesville and Jan 6th which were used to discredit him but it does not provide any evidence that he is planning on doing these things again or if they are true. This is an example of deceptive language as it implies that Mr. Trump's past actions will be repeated in the future without providing any evidence for this claim.
