Question

Critics of Donald Trump cited his lack of knowledge and government experience when he ran in the 2016 presidential election. Which of the following is a reason some Americans supported him but is unrelated to this status as a government outsider? (A) his status as one of New York City's elite businessmen(B) his success as an entrepreneur(C) his status as a billionaire(D) his stance on immigration

Answer 1

(D) his stance on immigration

Step-by-step explanation:

The first three alternatives on the issue show President Trump's life achievements that may have influenced the electorate but reinforced his position as a political outsider: being a successful businessman and billionaire. However, in taking a position on the situation of immigrants, Trump showed his position on an internal policy issue and this also added support from like-minded voters.
