“RNC finance chair Steve Wynn resigns after sexual harassment allegations.”
By ALEX ISENSDADT 01/27/2018, 02:16 PM
1.
This article is about a person of a high profile in the American government. Perhaps one has heard of family issues between a man and a wife which in the long run find the differences extended to public platforms. A game of revenge at times may take the course. This article informs of one Steve Wynn the Republican National Finance chairman who resigned from his high profile job due to allegations of sexual harassment. He is recognized as one of the chosen few by President Donald Trump to take up the position in the finance section.
The resigning chairman is a very close associate of President Donald Trump. He says even as he resigns; he expects the organization to keep realizing profits and maintain improvement all through. He says he is grateful for the president to have seen potential in him and appointed him to be the finance chairman of RNC, praying that he (the president) maintains success. This, however, seems to emerge as a political chance to the Democrats who kept blaming the act of endorsing the resigning chairman to take up that position demanding he should step down immediately.
Wynn’s resignation might come out as a big blow to the Republicans for he has been a donor for not less than ten years. He has also been an icon in donations of individual campaigns.

Perhaps Wynn is innocent for he says his ex-wife might be behind all the false stories tarnishing his name. They have had a bad relationship with his former wife who, as he directs, is just in pursuit of a settlement through the divorce.

For every happening, there must always be a cause and later consequences of the same. The resignation happens because there is a possible cause that has made it possible to happen and that is the alleged sexual harassment. The consequences are coming, as a result, are many. The victim himself should be ready to have his reputation injured to some extent especially when the entire information spills out to the public. Loss of a job will be another crucial consequence for that matter. Away from the individual assessment of the possible effects of the incident, the entire Republican movement will lose an important sponsor more so in terms election funding.
3.
Cases where there is talk about something negative having happened and the involved need to face the consequences as a result, then the most appropriate quality should be the cause-and-effect diagram. Although, it has not been used it is the best quality tool to use in determining the relation of the entire article to quality. The cause here is the sexual harassment issue then the effect is the resignation plus other effects coming as a result of resignation.

“Alleged payment to porn star was illegal donation to trump campaign, watchdog says”
The call from common cause for criminal prosecution echoes charges against John Edwards
By JOSH GERSTEIN 01/22/2018, 02:50 PM
This news article greatly touches on President Donald Trump of the United States. Some huge payments of money were made to the account of an actress in the porn film industry who had an intimate relationship with Trump. These transactions are said to have trespassed the campaign finance regulations. The payments, according to the law of the United States were required to be exposed publicly in the official reports but they were not. This sounded an illegal process hence it was necessary to question the action.
When asked to clarify the allegations, the vice president, Mike Pence informed that he distances himself and the president from the allegations that have no grounds laid against the president. The same case happens with Edwards, a former senator who was accused of diverting campaign funds to be used by his secret lover because she was pregnant with his baby. The election law, therefore, does not recognize the money that was spent for Trump in 2016 and Edwards in 2004.
2.
Sometimes some things may happen only to realize they are the worst that could ever happen in life. Political leaders when nearing elections would do anything for their name to sale. Trump had just had an affair with a porn film actress before elections. This would be too bad of him when it gets into the domain of the public who are his potential votes. The money paid to Stephanie Clifford who is also known as Stormy Daniels was just to silence her to cover up the act for the sake of the elections. President Trump would not have made it in the general elections if this woman had not been enticed. This was a good strategy by Trump, but then he was required to account for the money in the allegations since it was believed that formed the campaign kitty.
3.
The article states the actual figures in US dollars that were involved in both Trump’s and Edward’s case. This is a purely statistical analysis that has been used to present the information and data regarding figures. The cause-and-effect tool would also have been used determine how serious the matter would have been had there been no payments.

“Trump picks the fight with wall street journal over the interview.”
By Brent D. Griffiths 01/14/2018, 08:50
1.
This article confirms that reporting can sometimes be tricky if not done well. Reporting sources verbatim and or misquoting them might translate to a very serious offense punishable by law. The Wall Street publication just learned that it had misreported president Donald Trump during his interview with them (Groysberg & Healy, 2013). He denies having a close relationship with Kim Jong Un of North Korea. He goes further to say that he said he would have a good relationship pointing that is good nowadays interviews and their conversations are recorded for reference.
This is when one would first hear about official and unofficial audio during interviews. Still, not clear as to what both the two stand for but one would quickly look up the meaning of the words in the dictionary and take sides. There is an argument that the POTUS requested for prior changes of the writings, but the panel of the periodical held that the information had been reported the way it was sources and no alterations. However, the WSJ also blamed the Whitehouse for taking long to stage complains about the same.
2.
From what the Whitehouse lays as its defense it could be true, the president was either misquoted or was just what he said, but he realized that on reading the newspaper for the first time. Everyone tries to defend their stand as to whether the stamen was misreported or reported correctly (Nancy, 2014). From the president’s allegations, it seems the wall street journal tends to put words into his mouth. Again on the hand, the WSJ has to exercise its rights in the media profession. Therefore, they cannot just have corrections done on the already-circulating periodical. The article stipulates that it has been like a routine for the president and his team to stage war against media firms and journalists. It is simple. Media and politics are probably longtime foes, and it should be understood that way anyway.

The writer of the article would have employed any quality tool provided it well suits the entire article concerning the content.

“Republicans finally get what they wanted out of Trump.”
By ELIANA JOHNSON 12/20/2017, 06:27 PM
The Republicans elected President Donald Trump to carry the Ark of the Covenant for them and make them reach the long-awaited destination. The article points out that the former president Obama had done much in his early days just a month after taking up the office. It took Trump quite some time to gain balance and start implementations. The essential legislative strategies are normally endorsed in the first three months of taking up the office. This challenged Trump, but he still made it for his people (Feldman & Eichenthal, 2014). The Republicans even during the era of Obama have looked forward to having certain policies materialize. Although there have been ideological differences between Trump and Republican leaders, their objectives were achieved. The success is mostly about the foreign policy and the tax bills. It is indeed a great achievement for President Donald Trump.
All is not lost for the Republicans who now believe even in the involvement of Russia in the 2016 elections. Their opponents, the conservatives are also noticing that there are tremendous changes happening with Trump’s leadership (Rosenberg, 1982). The tax bill policy is the most celebrated milestone. Much more surprisingly, even the board of editors at Wall Street Journal confirmed that the tax bill is one great achievement ever met since the Reagan reforms of 1981 and 1986.
2.
The article presents information in a manner suggesting that whenever people gang up and endorse a leader to represent them, they always have a common objective to achieve. There are policies that have not favored the Republicans in the past regimes, especially the foreign and the tax bill policy (Ember, 2017). The achievement gives Trump the zeal and motivation to keep working for the people of America. When the republicans elected Trump to the office, they knew he was capable of getting them somewhere always yearned to be. Definitely, he has done it, and this may add some value to the next coming presidential elections.
3.
According to the statistical analysis of this article, the writer gives details on what can be summed up to be the expectations of the Republicans from Trump. Several quality tools have been used including those used as cause-and-effect diagrams, checking sheets and controlling charts (Stulberg, 2017). These quality tools reveal the level of achievement and areas where president Trump has done best as compared to his predecessors.
