mistakes for president

A few examples of logical fallacies in presidential debate:

  1. Trump attacked Hillary saying that she doesn't have the looks or stamina to be president. (Ad Hominem)
  2. Hillary attacked Trump about his discrimination of Muslim people. (Ad Hominem)
  3. Hillary attacked Trump on how he doesn't believe women should get paid as much as men, only if they work as hard as men. (Ad Hominem)
  4. Trump blaming Mexicans for 'stealing' American jobs. (Appeal to Emotion)
  5. Trump saying that more Mexicans are illegally crossing and they are 'stealing' American jobs. (false cause)
There were more but I only got to watch a little of the first question before I had to leave. Although i will include more as i watch it on youtube.com.
