Lying with silence is still lying. From what he said, anyone listening would assume she lobbied him to sign the EO. In reality, he signed it and then she worked with him to try to stop the legislature from overturning it.

The first would give him an emotional reason to sign the EO. The second merely means he worked to stop the Legislature from overturning him.
