In this case the fallacy was (US perspective)-- just because the Orange-Haired Man said it, doesn't make it wrong.

Admitting this fallacy would be too much to expect from political partisans. The guy is not a very stable genius, but he's not always 100% wrong either.

Yes, this case has generated an amount of "Hitler was a vegetarian" cases.

More "shockingly", some perceived in certain circles that an amount of "odd actors" acted to throw gasoline on every spark, enticing savage gut reactions. Another blow to civilization, opinion benders encouraging towards the dismissal of clean evaluation, mining the pillar that after "He said we walk using feet!!!" the response should be "Actually, ", not "Boo!".

Not sure why downvoted. Trump is the orange-face man, not hair.
