Poisoning the Well

In the twenty-third episode we explore the Poisoning the Well Fallacy, with examples from Trump talking about Democrats, Mueller's team of angry Democrats, and election rigging (by Democrats).

In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Theresa May turning on her own MPs, and Iain Duncan Smith calling Jeremy Corbyn a Marxist who supports Maduro.

In The Fallacy in the Wild, we check out a brilliant example from Mean Girls.

Jim and Mark go head to head in a game of Fake News, the game where Mark has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up.

And then Jim talks to the fabulous Jen Briney, of The Congressional Dish Podcast.

And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.

Subscribe to Fallacious Trump to make sure you never miss a logical fallacy. Rather than just mindless anti-Trump rhetoric, we apply skepticism and critical thinking to our Donald Trump analysis by exploring his liberal use of logical fallacies and cognitive biases, along with a bit of humor and news about US politics. (But there is also some of that much needed anti-Trump rhetoric.)
