Daniel Dale of the Toronto Star is tracking Trump’s serial lies about Matt Whitaker.
In one of his occasional did-a-lawyer-draft-this-tweet? tweets, Trump has gone from "I don't know Matt Whitaker" to "no social contact." pic.twitter.com/1airnpnicY

Fact check: The White House pressured Sessions to make Whitaker his chief of staff. https://t.co/NfercUDLwz

I'd thought Trump's argument that Mueller hasn't been Senate-confirmed was just very misleading, since special counsels don't need confirmation, but it's much worse: he argued Whitaker was Senate-confirmed in the past, 2004, but Mueller wasn't. Mueller was confirmed 98-0 in 2001. pic.twitter.com/3Fa6SbjsBj

So, yet more lies and attempted gaslighting.
The man is incapable of just letting the record speak for itself. He has to talk up the people he currently likes, and attempt to undermine those he currently dislikes.
