Through this case study, I intend to develop a pragma-dialectical approach to the political discourse. Based on the argumentative reconstruction, strategic maneuvering analysis and critical evaluation of the remarks, this paper finds that even if Ron Kirk’s remarks look reasonable apparently, there are still some fallacies hidden in them. In order to make the US government benefit most from the trade conflict, after considering comprehensively of the potential topics, audience demands, and presentational devices, Ron Kirk maneuvers strategically by choosing beneficial starting points and arranging argumentative schemes technically. By doing so, he can transmit AntiChina ideology to the international society imperceptibly. In addition, by taking into consideration the background information ofthe poultry case and the Ten Commandments of a critical discussion, this paper reveals that, the accepted starting points and the argument schemes are abused in Ron Kirk’s remarks. Through the case study, this paper tries to study political discourse from Pragma-Dialectical approach and provide feasible analytical methods and reasonable evaluative standards for the political discourse analysis, so that a new perspective will be offered for researches on political discourse.
