sophist

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one argues' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'it's posh abroad' is the wordplay.
'abroad' indicates an anagram (letters move around or go abroad).
'its'+'posh'='itsposh'
'itsposh' anagrammed gives 'SOPHIST'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sophist that I've seen before include "One who uses clever but false argument" , "one might plausibly argue" , "Clever but fallacious reasoner" , "One using clever but wrong arguments" , "One given to specious reasoning" .)
