“The [United States Trade Representative] says we have a trade surplus with Canada, the president says we don’t — how do you reconcile those two things?” a reporter asked Sanders.

Instead of simply acknowledging that Trump was wrong, Sanders twisted reality in at attempt to defend him. “For one, they are not taking into account some of the additional things, like energy and timber that would not be included in those numbers, and once you include those, it shows that there actually is a deficit,” Sanders said.

Another reporter followed up, asking Sanders whether there “are any other economic indicators that the White House disagrees with that come from the federal government.” Sanders again defended Trump’s lie, saying that “there are plenty of things, once you take into the full account of all of the trade between the two countries, that show that there is actually a deficit between those two.”

Sanders’ comments about trade weren’t the only time she defended Trump’s lies during Thursday’s briefing. The last question the press secretary fielded was about another fabrication Trump offered during his speech to donors on Wednesday — one about how the Japanese drop bowling balls on American cars as part of a convoluted effort to keep them off the Japanese market. There is no evidence that any such “bowling ball test” actually exists. But instead of just acknowledging as much, Sanders said Trump’s comment “illustrates the creative ways some countries are able to keep American goods out of their markets.”

The WH lies even when telling the simple t***h is better: why? Total gaslight mode to corrupt any and all trust in facts so that "alternative facts" they create get life and breath and t***h becomes just a matter of opinion.
