Fallacious Trump

Argument from Popularity (Redux) - FT#175


Listen Later

In the one-hundred-and-seventy-fifth episode, we take another look at the Argument from Popularity, starting with Trump claiming millions of people voted illegally in 2020, and that 90% of people think his economy was better than Biden's, then Utah's state legislature pretending science isn't real if enough people think so.

In Mark's British Politics Corner, we look at Rupert Lowe being racist, Nigel Farage dismissing Sky News based on TikTok followers, and Sarah Pochin claiming everyone feels betrayed by Labour.

In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from ads for Tampax and Chase Bank, and The Case for Christ.

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 One Big Beautiful Bill

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.)
