Political arguments are garbage because the most popular canidates avoid stating some premises so every man can project his own feelings onto them. All of them do use enthymemes. Supporters will then claim he meant he will do X, but didn't say it because its not politically correct. Enthymemes are the term for showing that politics is the art of talking and looking good, without actually saying anything.

Because smart people are too smart for slogans.. not an argument! Fallacy!

I'm getting fed up with this mandatory cynicism. Trump is a pretty cool nietzschean dude, authentic in the sense that he most likely never read nietzsche.
