Of all of his many, many, many lies, the one about the NFL is the most telling. He actually had somewhat of point, though an uninformed one. There are two debates schedule against NFL games, though the debate scheduled was set 18 months ago, by a bipartisan committee. He could have just left it at that, and a lot of people would have agreed with him. But he just couldn’t do it. He had to make up a phony letter from the NFL, despite the fact that it would be so easily proven to be false. He could not help himself from lying to make himself seem more important.
People who are basically truthful don’t have to continually say “Believe me when I say…”. That’s what (bad) compulsive liars do.
