A lot of people don’t seem to understand what a lie is. A lie requires intent to tell a falsehood. One can also tell a falsehood because one is mistaken or in delusion.

One way to raise the sleeping giant in a person is to accuse them of telling a lie when they are merely mistaken and think they are telling the truth.

Good point. It is very annoying when people say something is “a lie,” when it’s really a different opinion or an honest error.

The FBI is accusing Trump associates of "lying" to them when in some of the cases, it was a matter of interpretation or forgetting. Heck...Hilliary and crew made an art form of it!
