Fallacious Trump7 Mars 2023

Morton's Fork

In the one hundred and nineteenth episode we explore the Morton's Fork Fallacy, starting with Trump suggesting journalists would complain whether the White House had Covid tests or not, and Mike Lindell claiming Democrats cheated in Virginia even though they didn't win.

In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Sir Kier Starmer and Steve Anglesey calling Rishi Sunak for not firing and then firing Nadim Zawahi, nurses being denied pay raises because it would make them worse off, actually, and Francine Lewis claiming Boris Johnson would still be vilified even if he'd done a good job..

In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Matilda, Monty Python 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 Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.

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.)
