Abstract

Social media has provided many opportunities for people to express, obtain, and reproduce their views, thoughts, ideologies, and even their daily routines. Perhaps the most famous person to successfully take advantage of these opportunities and become a constant trending topic around the world is former American President Donald J. Trump. The style of language he uses on social media helps spread his ideology so that he has become known as the first president of America to use social media to get his ideas across. To evaluate the keywords in the corpus of Trump’s social media that dominated the topics of social media in Iran, a corpus-assisted critical discourse analysis was used as the methodology for this study. The results show that the keywords “people”, “real”, “brave”, “suffering”, and “killed” are closely related to the oppressive conditions of the Iranian people. The results also show that people who are talked about as brave figures always get help and love from Trump.
