Synopsis

"I used to lose every argument, then I read this book and now I win them all! It's that good." "This is a tremendous book, and I should know - I have a PhD." "Most of the other books on logical fallacies are written by Americans, so they can't be any good." These made up quotes are all logical fallacies - the kinds of common errors in reasoning that we all make from time to time. Fallacious Trump: The Donald J. Trump Guide to Logical Fallacies describes many common logical fallacies, explains why they are invalid, and helps you to spot them in your own arguments as well as other people's. Every fallacy is illustrated with real-life examples drawn from the tweets, speeches and interviews of the King of Logical Fallacies, Donald J. Trump. Fallacies contained in the book include: Ad Hominem Straw Man Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc Argument from Popularity Texas Sharpshooter Cherry Picking Equivocation Tu Quoque Red Herring Argument from Ignorance Hasty Generalization Begging the Question Genetic Fallacy Poisoning the Well Moving the Goalposts Slippery Slope Argument from Personal Incredulity Non-Sequitur and many more!
