In the ninety-eighth episode we explore the Silent Majority Fallacy, starting with Trump implying people who don't protest are on his side and that people with ten flags on their boats are part of the silent majority.

In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at David Cameron's invocation of the silent majority in the run up to a vote on Scottish independence, and Scottish Tory leader Douglas Ross claiming the SNP's huge actual majority will be beaten by all the people who can't be bothered to vote.

In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Nixon (the film), Nixon (the person) and The Gilmore Girls.

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 right wing's claim that the Washington Post have finally admitted that Hunter Biden's laptop is real.

And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
