In May 2017 Trump told NBC's Lester Holt that, "This Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story."

This is that lie that put him over the top as liar of the year

The legacy of this year is that there were simply too many lies uttered, even in just this week, to settle on a single lie of the entire year. It’s Trump’s world, and we’re just living in it.

Alternate reality is not a safe place to live.
