Trump: makes incorrect claim

Moderator: Actually there is no evidence that happened

Trump: well I saw it on TV! Someone said it on TV! Someone wouldn't just go and say something on TV if it wasn't true!

Shouldn't the president of the country have a bit of higher standard of evidence than "I saw someone say it on TV"?

"But I saw it on TV!" says the man currently saying untrue things on TV.

Someone wouldn’t just go and say something on TV if it wasn’t true!

Not to mention the guy who popularized the term "fake news" back during his first campaign.
