Thom Tillis is no longer a Senator, according to Trump. Also, NASA was closed before him. Totally closed.

BARTIROMO: Jerome Powell said he's not leaving

TRUMP: Then I'll have to fire him

BARTIROMO: And you think Warsh can get confirmed? You think Tillis is gonna give you a vote?

TRUMP: He might not, but that's why Tillis is no longer a senator

BARTIROMO: Okay

Trump on Artemis II: "I started that program. NASA was closed."

"Sir, do you really believe Tillis is no longer a senator?"... "Do you actually believe NASA was shut down, Sir?"

... no longer even tries to keep his lies straight. He just spews whatever witless nonsense that, at the moment, makes him seem credible in his own fevered mind, roaring dumpster fire of malice and mendacity that it is.

It almost like he's a crazy demented lying moron.

His whole presidency is built on mount bullshit.
