What devices do leaders use in speeches to manipulate people?

Leaders often use rhetorical devices such as emotional appeal (pathos) to connect with their audience's feelings, creating a sense of empathy or urgency. They employ repetition for emphasis, making key messages memorable and reinforcing their importance. Additionally, the use of anecdotes or storytelling can personalize larger issues, making them relatable and compelling. Finally, leaders may invoke authority or credibility (ethos) to establish trust and persuade listeners to align with their viewpoints.
