Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump has used the 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris, France, as one basis for barring all immigrants who practice Islam from entering the U.S

In as much detail as you can, explain the type of example Trump is using and use critical thinking to assess it.
What will be an ideal response?


The best answers will:
1. identify the example as an "actual example."
2. explain that, although this is an "important" example, it does not meet the standards of "typicality" enough to warrant such a strong conclusion. In other words, the attacks in France were of great importance, but to use them as evidence supporting an extremist anti-immigration policy in the U.S. is inaccurate and unethical.
