In the one hundred and seventeenth episode we explore the If By Whiskey Fallacy, starting with the Trump Administration trying to change the definition of sex and science, then Don Jr twisting Joe Biden's words and a random Trump supporter defending his orange idol.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Boris Johnson claiming he's not the racist kind of nationalist and avoiding questions about the Leave campaign.
In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from The Simpsons, Pulp Fiction and Frasier.
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 Fair Tax Act and what it means for Kevin McCarthy's House leadership.
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.)
