First example is several of the presidential candidate Donald Trump where he oversimplify an opponent point of view then attacks that weak hollow argument that he created. Another example, which happens a lot on many different levels, when someone generalize a characteristic for a whole group of people, racially or religiously, in simpler words “stereo typing”, which as matter of fact another fallacy that our fierce presidential candidate Donald Trump commits on regular basis.

As we know fallacies are used very often in our lives. Ad Hominem fallacy is not an exception.
