Fallacious TrumpThe Donald J. Trump Guide to Logical Fallacies Author: Jim & Mark
Jim and Mark use the insane ramblings of a tiny-handed narcissist to explain logical fallacies. Each episode we focus on a single logical fallacy and, using examples from Trump, UK politics and pop culture, explore how and why it fools people, how to avoid committing it yourself, and how to counter it in an argument.

Chronocentrism - FT#185
Episode 185
Monday, 17 November, 2025
In the one-hundred-and-eighty-fifth episode, we explore the Chronocentrism Fallacy, starting with Trump going overboard announcing the Gaza ceasefire, a Trump fan saying when he thinks America was great the first time, and Eisenhower responding to Adlai Stevenson's campaign slogan.In Mark's British Politics Corner, we look at Thatcher in 1980 claiming everything's great, Cameron in 2016 claiming everything's great, Lord Bates claiming everything will soon be great, Boris Johnson claiming when you look back in 30 years' time everything now will seem great, and Starmer claiming he will make everything great.In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Frasier, Quantum Leap, and Modern Family.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 recently released Epstein emails.And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.The full show notes for this episode can be found at https://fallacioustrump.com/ft185 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.)You can contact the guys at pod@fallacioustrump.com, on BlueSky @FallaciousTrump, Discord at fallacioustrump.com/discord, or facebook at facebook.com/groups/fallacioustrumpYou can support us at Patreon.com/ftrump, and you can buy our T-shirts here: https://fallacioustrump.com/teeSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fallacious-trump/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
