Trump tried to pick a fight with Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN), but only humiliated himself after his claim of refusing to endorse the Tennessee Senator was revealed to be a lie.

When Trump tells a story, it is safe to assume that the opposite is the truth. When Trump claims he had no involvement with Russia during the election, it means that Trump probably colluded with Russia. If Trump says a meeting was great, it was a disaster. Trump claims of having secret plans for various issues mean that he’s got nothing.
That’s just the way this president works. Up is down. Left is right, and white is black.

Trump should know that these Twitter lies will easily debunked. The fact that he doesn’t care is a striking behavioral example of why he is unfit for the presidency
