- Abstract
The scientific article is devoted to the analysis of the gender dynamics in the 2016 U.S. presidential debates between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. It focuses on instances of aggressive verbal behavior and examines the linguistic strategies employed by both candidates. Trump's confrontational tone, use of sarcasm, and repetitive assertions of superiority are analyzed alongside Clinton's composed yet assertive responses, which often incorporate irony and specific examples to challenge Trump's attacks. This study addresses how gender stereotypes impact political communication strategies, highlighting the challenges female politicians face in navigating these expectations while effectively communicating their messages.
