Abstract:
International audience ; This article concentrates on US President Donald Trump’s last months in power and studies how he manages to deny defeat until the very last day of his presidency. Focusing on his Twitter communication extracted from the Trump Twitter Archive from November 4th 2020 to January 8th 2021 when his Twitter account was suspended, Sandrine Sorlin shows the continuity and changes in Trump’s style at the very end of 2020, highlighting how he goes about sustaining faith in his victory through the specific use of negation. This article also delves into Trump’s strategic use of personal pronouns and (in)direct address that seek to intimidate weak Republicans. Through what she calls a ‘rhetoric of the iceberg’, presenting only some evidence of the Republican victory while giving the illusion of ‘massive’ proof underneath, and through constant repetition in the Twitter echo chamber, she demonstrates how Trump succeeds in kindling his fans’ frustration and leading them to the Capitol on January 6th 2021.Top of page ; Cet article se concentre sur la communication de Donald Trump sur Twitter pendant ses derniers mois au pouvoir. Il s’intéresse d’un point de vue linguistique et rhétorique au déni de défaite du président jusqu’au tout dernier jour de sa présidence. Extrait de Trump Twitter Archive, le corpus est constitué des Tweets envoyés par le président depuis le 4 novembre 2020 (le lendemain de l’annonce des résultats) jusqu’à la suspension de son compte, le 8 janvier 2021. L’auteure étudie le style de Trump dans ces derniers mois pour en établir les continuités et les ruptures et met en lumière comment, à travers une utilisation spécifique de la négation, Trump est parvenu à maintenir la croyance en sa victoire. Elle détaille également l’utilisation stratégique que fait Trump des pronoms personnels et de l’adresse (in)directe afin d’intimider les « weak Republicans ». A travers ce que S. Sorlin appelle une « rhétorique de l’iceberg » ne mettant en exergue que quelques preuves de la victoire tout en prétendant qu’il en existe d’innombrables, l’article montre comment Trump, à la force des répétitions résonnant dans la chambre d’écho de la sphère Twitter, parvient à attiser la frustration de ses fans et à les inciter à envahir le Capitole le 6 janvier 2021.
