In this paper, we aim to describe and analyze the argumentative construction of Donald Trump’s speeches in Spanish through the introduction of the volitive modality that, according to Hengeveld and Mackenzie (2008), refers to what is (in)desirable. We are based on the Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG) in order to verify the behavior of volition in the speeches that composed the corpus. We conclude that the volitive modality presents mostly modal orientation for the Participant, with the specification of the syntactic subject, with the volitional modal value of intention being the most recurrent and the volition relative to controlled and uncontrolled events. We also attested to a higher frequency of first-person marks (singular and plural), with the volitive modality being expressed significantly through volitional lexical verbs.
