Argument to the Purse

In the one hundred and fifteenth episode we explore the Argument to the Purse, starting with Trump dismissing bloggers and Alan Sugar because they are too poor, and Ben Shapiro defending Elon Musk's intellect.

In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Rishi Sunak explaining why we can't afford to pay nurses and Mick Lynch explaining why poor people aren't to blame for inflation.

In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Microsoft XP ads, Gilbert Gottfried, Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, Cop Rock and The Simpsons.

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

Then we talk about the many lies of George Santos.

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.)
