In the one hundred and fifty-fourth episode we explore the Magic Words Fallacy, starting with Trump not wanting to be a chauvinist, Ted Yoho not apologizing, and Sovereign citizens not getting away with anything.In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Nigel Farage making excuses for racists in his party, both Priti Patel and Boris not apologizing, and Robert Jenrick repenting for the wrong thing.In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, Cop Rock, American Dad, and Bob's Burgers.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 Kamala Harris's amazing first few days as the presumptive candidate.And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.The full show notes for this episode can be found at https://fallacioustrump.com/ft154 You can contact the guys at pod@fallacioustrump.com, on Twitter @FallaciousTrump, or facebook at facebook.com/groups/fallacioustrumpSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fallacious-trump/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Om Podcasten

Jim and Mark use the insane ramblings of a tiny-handed narcissist to explain logical fallacies. Each episode we focus on a single logical fallacy and, using examples from Trump, UK politics and pop culture, explore how and why it fools people, how to avoid committing it yourself, and how to counter it in an argument.
