Trump recently gave a speech in Flint Michigan after being invited by Rev. Faith Green Timmons to speak on the water crisis going on there. Durring the speech, Trump began to criticize his opponent, at which time the Reverend interrupted him, telling him "Mr Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we've done for Flint, not to give a political speech".
Since then, Trump has made claims about the encounter, saying that she was "shaking" when introducing him, that she had planned it all along, and that people in the crowd called for him to be allowed to finish. Reporters who were there at the event have criticized Trump, saying that he has wrongfully characterized the events that transpired.
Do you believe that Trump intentionally and knowingly lied about the situation, or not, and why>

Of course he did. He will say and do anything to get what he wants. If the roles were reversed - if it had been Clinton there and she started to talk politics and they stopped her and she protested afterward - he would be alllllll over her calling her a liar and questioning her character. Side: Yes
