a. Garcia uses short, forceful words to assert a pessimistic opinion on fate.

Garcia, based on the written excerpt, is a suggestive writer that provides a direct and unhesitating point of fate. That outspoken truth about El Lider's failure deems a vulgar utterance of pessimism and slight depression. However, Garcia is concise with the opinion and idea being proclaimed.
