In the sixty-eighth episode we explore Failing Occam's Razor, starting out with Trump not understanding why he didn't get more mail in ballots and Lou Dobbs wondering why there's no proof of election fraud.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Therese Coffey and Baron McColl claiming obesity, age and population density are the reasons for the UK's atrocious COVID response.
In the Fallacy in the Wild, we check out examples from The Simpsons and Brothers & Sisters.
Jim and Marsh go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Marsh has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up.
Then Jim talks to Marsh from the Merseyside Skeptics about how he got started in skepticism, how to help friends and family in danger of believing things like Q, and the plans for the next QED conference, among other things.
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.)
