First, you should have used whom, not who. Secondly, you wrote this: This is the definition of the word lie, per Merriam-Webster: : to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive There needs to be an intent to deceive in order to lie. Thus, how can one lie without knowing they are lying if they are intending to deceive? That doesn't make any sense.
Oh, how the standard has fallen! Biden was supposed to be the president that supposedly brought honor, integrity, and a seriousness that befits the majesty of the Oval Office. And now the standard is, it appears, "Come on already! What president hasn't claimed that their uncle was eaten by cannibals? In fact, who among us has never been guilty of claiming such a thing? Let he who has not claimed their uncle was eaten by cannibals cast the first stone!" Sorry, this may hurt your feelings, but we are going to talk about this. It's not just that he made an outlandish claim. It's that he made an unbelievably outlandish claim. As for the thread count, the more the merrier, in my humble opinion.
