Today, NBC, quoted in Adam Edelman (2020-01-10), "Sen. Bernie Sanders slams Trump as 'pathological liar'", NBC News
“
The difficulty that we have, and I don't mean to be rude here, is that we have a president who is a pathological liar. So, could it be true? I guess it could be. Is it likely to be true? Probably not. And I think what happens in our own country and around the world, people don't believe much of what Trump says, and when you lie all the time, the problem is sometimes when you're telling the truth that people are not gonna believe you.
