I wrote a similar thread Sunday night when it became obvious Trump had lied about a Tuesday arrest and yet the media kept covering his BS truth/tweet as actual news.

I texted excited friends on Saturday that Trump was lying and had no clue if and when he would be indicted and just using it to fund raise.

In all fairness though MSNBC did point out repeatedly all weekend that Trump's communications team said from the beginning that they'd had no idea what Trump was talking about.
