That's my whole point. I fully understand not wanting to air everyone's laundry. I'm just suggesting that nobody is buying their silly lies, so if they think they are "controlling the narrative" they are sorely mistaken.

Everyone knowing he's lying is probably a better PR situation than everyone knowing the truth.

It's sad that we tolerate such blatant lies as normal.

Can't agree more!

You're not tolerating anything, you weren't entitled to know in the first place.
