@aaron.rupar there's a simpler explanation though: they don't know what they're talking about in the first place.
It's not that they're lying, it's that they don't know anything. They don't know what's true in the first place, so they can't lie about it.
They're just idiots. That's the simplest explanation. And it's backed up by all sorts of things up to Trump having been convicted of felonies because he was too damn stupid to get his paperwork in order.
