Its you and the GoPe claim he lied about it. thats your opinion. not worth much.
It isn't a matter of what I claim. It is a matter of recognizing two statements coming from Trump that directly contradict one another. There is no way both can be true. The 2016 narrative invents a phony past that is exposed as false by his 2002 statement. And Trump did so in order to intentionally deceive his audience. That is what fifth-graders call 'lying'.
