Probably something like when PIAPS called one of her advisers a

Just colloquial expressions you know.

Paraphrase: I have heard Trump say bad things, but I’m not really sure.
Anything to get the anti-Trumpers going.

But the stakes are now high and I am an unreliable narrator,” he said...Unreliable narrator? LOL - what a yawn.
