Zero Sum Fallacy - FT#128
Manage episode 372132097 series 2322975
In the one hundred and twenty eighth episode we explore the Zero Sum Fallacy, starting with Trump getting trade wrong again and dismissing Black lives mattering, followed by the Supreme Court annihilating affirmative action.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Rishi Sunak and Oliver Dowden's zero sum based trade theories, and Rishi's attack on 'useless' university degrees.
In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from House, Northern Exposure and This Great Beast That Is The Global Economy.
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 target letter Trump received from Jack Smith.
And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
