In argumentation theory, an argumentum ad populum ( Latin for "argument to the people") is a fallacious argument that concludes that a proposition must be true because many or most people believe it, often concisely encapsulated as: "If many believe so, it is so." Just because people once thought the earth was flat didn't make it so. Just because people once thought debt from tax cuts is good, does not make it so. Dumb people do the same thing over and over and expect a different result. We call these dumb people republicans.
