Fallacies
(85%)
The article contains several examples of logical fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by stating that Trump's statement was far more dangerous than his usual disconnected blustering without providing any evidence or reasoning for this claim. Additionally, the author commits a false dilemma by implying that Trump only made the comment about Nikki Haley's husband because he wanted to be around her and not because of military service obligations.
The article contains several examples of logical fallacies.
Bias
(85%)
The author demonstrates a clear bias towards the military and their families. The statement 'He knew' is suggestive of an innuendo that Major Haley asked to be sent half a world away from his family because he didn't want to be around his wife, which is disgusting and disrespectful. This implies that Trump believes the sacrifices made by military families are not worth it.

Deception
(50%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author uses a quote from Nikki Haley to make it seem like she has turned on Trump when in fact she has not walked back her comments about him throughout the GOP contest. Secondly, the author presents Trump's insult against military members as if he is attacking all veterans which is false. Thirdly, the article portrays Trump's chaotic approach to foreign policy and his lack of discipline but fails to mention that this has been a consistent pattern in his political career.

Fallacies
(85%)
The article contains several examples of informal fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by stating that Trump's comments were 'disgusting', without providing any evidence or reasoning for this claim. Additionally, the author uses inflammatory rhetoric when describing Trump's conduct as 'unbecoming of a president'. This is not a formal fallacy but it does contribute to an overall negative tone towards Trump. The article also contains examples of dichotomous depictions by stating that Haley has been aggressive in her attacks on Trump, while also noting that few see the new offensive from Haley as having a tangible impact on the course of the Republican primary.
