The rhetorical devices that President Trump uses in this excerpt are options 3 and 5.
Trump uses overstatement in sentence number 5.
Overstatement is saying something to lay emphasis or give a profound meaning, as to make the point more important than it is. As a result, Trump uses overstatement when he puts emphasis on the word America.
Moreover, he uses repetition in sentences number 6 and 7.
Repetition is a rhetorical device in which the person repeats the same word or phrases several times, to make the idea more concrete or memorable. This device appears when Trump uses the word "protect" multiple times in his speech.

The other options are too metaphorical, and would thus be considered to be a connotative, rather than denotative meaning.</span>
