I'm going to continue to attack the press." (Ad Baculum) -- "You could have a Trojan horse situation. You could -- this could be the ultimate Trojan horse." (Reification) -- "Now, the poor guy. You gotta see this guy." (Ad Hominem) -- "I'm not saying that he conspired; I'm just saying that it was all over the place." (Paralipsis) -- "I am 'America First.' So, I like the expression. I'm "America First.'" (American Exceptionalism) -- Trump and the Polarized Electorate -- "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters." (Ad Populum) -- "Low-Energy Jeb!" (Ad Hominem) -- "I didn't tweet; I retweeted somebody that was supposedly an expert. Am I gonna check every statistic? All it was is a retweet. And it wasn't from me." (Paralipsis) -- "If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment, people, maybe there is. I don't know." (Ad Baculum)
