In the one hundred and thirty fourth episode we explore the Sour Grapes Fallacy, starting with Trump claiming Salma Hayek is too short for him, and NFL games are boring, and various right wingers claim Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are talentless and ugly.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Jonathan Wallace and Nigel Farage being bitter about losing elections.
In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from I Love Lucy, Father Ted, and Flight of the Conchords.
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 search for a new Speaker.
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.)
