This research aims to explore Appraisal theory in Donald Trump?s speech on Arab Islamic American Summit 2017 to see how Trump convey his messages to convince Muslim leaders to fight against terrorism. Appraisal theory concerns with Attitude (Affect, Judgement, and Appreciation), Engagement (Monogloss and Heterogloss), and Graduation (Focus and Force). The objectives of this research are to find what kinds of Appraising items applied and how they are applied to convince Muslim leaders. This research uses descriptive qualitative research as the method. The data of this research are extracted from the utterances of Trump?s political speech on Arab Islamic American Summit 2017 that are analyzed by using Appraisal theory by Martin & White (2005).
