In the twenty-seventh episode we explore the Single Cause Fallacy, with examples from Trump tweeting about the stock market, and blaming violent video games for the Parkland shooting.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at four parties explaining their results in the European elections, and hear Nigel Farage defend himself against Hillary Clinton.
In The Fallacy in the Wild, we check out examples from Blackadder Goes Forth and Friends.
Jim and Mark go head to head in a game of Fake News, the game where Mark has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up.
And then we discuss just a few of the many Democratic Presidential candidates based on our results from http://isidewith.com
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.)
