Trump spokeswoman: 'I don't think the president has lied'
By Justin Wise - 08/29/19 09:10 AM EDT


CNN host Chris Cuomo and Kayleigh McEnany, a spokeswoman for President Trump's reelection campaign, got into a heated exchange late Wednesday over whether Trump lies, with McEnany repeatedly insisting that he doesn't.

The contentious back-and-forth came as Cuomo accused the president of consistently lying and demonizing people for being different.

"He doesn't lie. He doesn't lie," McEnany retorted. "The press lies."

She repeated that Trump "doesn't lie" before stating, "Guess who lies? The press lies."

"You don't think this president has ever lied?" Cuomo quickly shot back, before speaking over McEnany and asking, "You don’t think the president has lied to the American people? You have to answer that question first. He has never lied to the American people?"

"I don't think the president has lied. No, I don't think the president has lied," she responded.


..........................................

"I think that fake news has lied to the American people," she said, before going on to accuse the press of lying about the president in its coverage of Russian election interference.

"I’ll ask you this one more time, ............................................" Cuomo asked.

“No,” McEnany, a former CNN contributor and Republican National Committee spokesperson, said. “I don’t believe the president has lied.”

Cuomo then went on state that he was wrapping up the interview because of McEnany's denial.

McEnany responded by accusing the press of lying about everything the president says.

You can't have an honest discussion about the issues with fundamentally dishonest people.
