"Contradicting border chief, Trump claims 3 officers ‘very badly hurt’ by migrants"
"Speaking with reporters in Mississippi, where he held two rallies for Republican Sen. Cindy-Hyde Smith, the president claimed that three border patrol officers “were very badly hurt" Sunday during a melee with migrants attempting to enter the United States at a border crossing in San Diego."
"Trump’s account contradicted U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan, who said in a statement Monday that agents and officers “effectively managed an extremely dangerous situation involving over 1,000 individuals,” adding: “They did so safely and without any reported serious injuries on either side of the border.”
"Without providing supporting evidence, Trump asserted that “over 500 people” within the migrant caravans are “serious criminals and gang members,” remarking that “the violence is very strong”

Amazing part is that Trump knows he lies, could care less, all part of his shtick, if anyone points it out it is automatically labeled "fake news,' and the lemmings believe it, he has created a illusionary reality for the Trumpkins, which allows him to say anything he wants at any time
Remember when honesty used to be an admirable quality, mothers used to teach their kids not to lie, and now the head of the country regularly employs lying as a means to an end
(and before the Obama "whataboutism" surfaces, Obama in eight years, nor any President for that matter, probably even combinations of them, can come anywhere close to the Olympian level records for flat out lying that Trump has set in just two years?)
