The Truth About Tautologies
A tautology is a statement that must be true because it has to be. Tucker does not understand what he's talking about, but this strikes me as evidence that someone working on his staff probably likes to watch online debate streamers. When you're talking about logic, tautologies aren't bad arguments; they're just a term that describes formulations of sentences that can never be false. The statements that he mocks at the end of the clip are not tautologies in the logic sense, nor in the rhetoric sense. They are just sentiments that he doesn't like diversity is our strength is a bit slow, guinea, but it's not a tautology.
