المستخلص: This paper investigates the linguistic items which act as hedges in the speeches of Donald Trump about COVID-19, as well as to examine the functions of these devices. Thirty tweets and forty answers to reporters' questions were selected from The Atlantic, Indian Express, BBC, Politico and The Guardian official sites. The data were examined adopting Salager Meyer’s (1994) taxonomy. The study exposed that the most frequently used hedging devices in Trump's speeches are modal auxiliaries, accounting (65 instances) 28.13%, and the most frequently used hedging device subcategory is the modal auxiliary “will” accounting (26 instances) 40% trump adopted. The Introductory phrases heavily in his speeches, especially "I think" (22 occurrences) 37.2% of the overall frequency and percentages of introductory phrases. Martin- Martin (2008), stated that the strategy in which first personal pronouns (I/we) are followed by verbs of cognition (think, believe) is called “Subjectivization” strategy. The findings propose that these hedging devices used by Trump about Covid-19 justify several pragmatic functions. Trump tried to promise the public that the pandemic will end soon, but there many hedges in his speeches prove the opposite. Trump insisted his own unscientific beliefs. The research determines that political discourse as a non-scientific genre resorts to hedging devices to express indirectness, uncertainty, lack of commitment and probability.
