Everyone in the Trump administration lies about everything. Occam's Razor is a problem-solving principle that suggests when you have multiple competing explanations for something, the simplest one is often the best or most likely to be true.

Modified old joke. ------- Donald Trump growing weary of the facts and figures given to him, leaned over Resolute Desk and remarked, "I've heard your arguments, and I'm none the wiser!" His cabinet responded, "That may be, Mr President, but at least you're better informed!"
