Why does #DonaldTrump tell easily refutable lies - repeatedly? Is he mentally ill, or does he just want to lose? Sad

Trump Campaign's Latest (?) Easily Refutable Lie
Submitted by Peter Montgomery on Friday, 8/12/2016 12:06 pm
Donald Trump and his campaign lie so frequently that a headline reporting the latest is likely to be out of date by the time it's posted. But it is still somewhat remarkable that the campaign tells unnecessary lies that are so easily refuted by publicly available facts a phenomenon we have noted about other right-wing leaders we monitor like historian David Barton.
In a Friday morning email from the Trump campaign, which begins, Im amazed at the lies the liberal media spews day after day, Trump lists a number of accomplishments that he says show that we continue to prove them wrong. One of the bullet points is this:
Pulling off an incredible Republican National Convention, with much higher viewership than the Democrats disastrous convention..............
.............................
What is indisputably false is the claim that the Republican convention had much higher viewership than the Democrats. In fact, as it has been widely reported, Democrats drew millions more viewers than Republicans on three out of the four nights, and overall. Its true that more people watched Trumps final-night speech than Clintons, but that wasnt good news for Trump, because more people disliked the speech than liked it.
