    ad hominem is not a fallacy when you are talking about *the person himself* and why *he* is the greater evil.https://twitter.com/cvdsanduhh/status/787744983164026880 …

    Youre so desperately trying to defend your position with mere ad hominems. Looks pathetic and i lost respect for you.

        ad hominem fallacy only applies to a person you're having an argument with, not the subject of the argument.

        You didn't get what he said. Try this angle; if you are on trial, the charges leveled against you aren't "ad hominem" attacks.

        it’s specifically not a fallacy if the properties of the person, as opposed to their espoused views, are the topic.

        the point is that i'd rather see SH discuss actual policy positions.'Unfit' is at most an assumption/opinion.

        OK, wrong use of fallacy. But I fail to understand with everything out there on HRC, how DT possibly can be the bigger evil.

        if you falsely equivocate HRC's "wrongdoings" with @realDonaldTrumps racism, fascism, misogyny, then you're blind.

        Sam, with all the recent polls coming in are you really afraid Trump still has a chance to win? He'll need Ohio+Pennsylvania.

        I am very afraid. Dems could get complacent. Could be lot of "hidden" trump voters. Polls still way too close.

        why do so many abject morons follow and reply to you on twitter? I think you need to make greater use of that block button.
