This study use a qualitative approach by employing discourse analysis methodology. Data for this study were collected using a transcribed political interview and analysed using the the conventions developed by Du Bois, Schuetze- Coburn, Cumming, and Paolino.

The video displayed Jonathan Swan, an Australian political contributor for Axios, conducts interview with President Donald Trump touching various domestic issues in the U.S. The findings show that speakers predominantly express disagreement using negative stance markers ("no," "not," "never"), posing yes/no questions, introducing a third-party to justify a statement, and offering evasive responses.
