Like a toddler or Student Wife (2016)a 'flat earth' truther, President Trump seems intent on denying things that are established facts.
On Monday morning, Trump tweeted that when he referred to Apple CEO Tim Cook as "Tim Apple" at a White House roundtable last week, he was really saying "Tim/Apple" as a way to "save words," which is totally something Trump is known for doing...

This is a strange lie, but it's not even the first time he's lied about this. As Axios reports, Trump was speaking with Republican donors on Friday night at his Mar-a-Lago resort when he apparently denied the whole incident as, what else, "fake news."
According to Axios:
Trump told the donors that he actually said "Tim Cook Apple" really fast, and the "Cook" part of the sentence was soft. But all you heard from the "fake news," he said, was "Tim Apple."
Perhaps unsurprisingly, neither of his excuses match.
Also, we all know that neither is at all true because there is video of the incident that proves he clearly said "Tim Apple."

It was so clear that even Tim Cook, who was sitting right next to Trump when he said it, had some fun by changing his Twitter name to "Tim " on Thursday. One donor told Axios that Trump's decision to lie about this particular mistake was so strange because, "It doesn't even matter!"
And that's true. Of all of Trump's flubs this one is pretty damn low on the list of importance. It's nothing compared to, say, when he claimed he mixed up the word "would" with "wouldn't" regarding whether or not he believed Russia's denial of interference in the 2016 election.
Unfortunately, the strangeness didn't stop with "Tim Cook Apple." Axios reports that during Friday's speech Trump also said a whole slew of other upsetting things, including that "Democrats hate Jewish people." But perhaps the worst was a comment about Secret Service agents being in "blackface" on the White House lawn. (He was referring to the masks the agents wear.) It was a clear -- if failed -- attempt to joke about the recent controversy in Virginia surrounding Gov. Ralph Northam wearing blackface in an old photograph.
So, all in all, just another chaotic weekend in Trump land.
