    Jeet Heer Retweeted Maggie Haberman

    If we're not willing to call Trump a liar, we should at least say he's a bullshitter (remembering Harry Frankfurt's useful distinction between lying & bullshitting). It's not that he always has intent to deceive but rather he doesn't care about truth.https://twitter.com/maggieNYT/status/1000565017845075968 …

    Maggie HabermanVerified account @maggieNYT
    This is really ruining Say Anything for me. Said with respect for you as an actor. But, I’ll quote a person who knows Trump well who messaged me describing the lack of understanding that ppl have about “how Trump’s ignorance and mendacity interact.” https://twitter.com/johncusack/status/1000562273226838018 …

        gotta preserve access... it's important for a journalist to help the administration lie today so they cam help it lie tomorrow. Besides, she already showed her character carrying water for SHS...

        Bullshitting is different than intentionally lying to hurt someone.

        disagree. a "bullshitter" is a familiar fella who tells yarns. not a sociopathic liar who can't NOT lie no matter how it hurts even himself.

        @maggieNYT Why should we even care how “Trump’s ignorance and mendacity interact”? Does it provide even a smidgeon of insight into how he governs?
