Millions of Americans Flood Into Mexico for Health Care — the Human Caravan You Haven’t Heard About

A straw man is a common form of argument and is an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent. One who engages in this fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man."

The typical straw man argument creates the illusion of having completely refuted or defeated an opponent's proposition through the covert replacement of it with a different proposition (i.e., "stand up a straw man") and the subsequent refutation of that false argument ("knock down a straw man") instead of the opponent's proposition.

And democrats propose installing radical Islam, eliminating free speech, and brutally punishing anyone with any money (/s in case that flew over your head)

Don't condemn the majority for the irrational opinions of the few.
