Fallacious Trump

Appeal to Self-Evident Truth - FT#104


Listen Later

In the one hundred and fourth episode we explore the Appeal to Self-Evident Truth, starting with Trump claiming there was obvious fraud during the election and that his first impeachment was an open and shut case (but not the way you think).

In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Nadine Dorries defending Boris against an 'obviously' coordinated attack, Sir Kier Starmer pointing out how obvious it is that Boris is unfit to be Prime Minister, and finally Charlotte Carew-Pole claiming as self-evident the fact that women are less problematic as politicians.

In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Peep Show, The Blacklist and Evil Under the Sun.

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 a few of the most horrific recent Supreme Court decisions.

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.)
