Trump doctored a weather chart and ordered a rear admiral to release a statement backing up his falsehoods. The NOAA also jumped to Trump's defense, and the White House won't say if they engineered it. By my count, something like this has happened at least 7 times. *THREAD*

2) The White House set up an official commission to validate Trump's repeated lies about voter fraud in the 2016 election. Remember, those lies were rooted in Trump's rage over losing the popular vote: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/09/05/not-just-sharpie-gate-other-times-officials-tried-fabricate-trumps-truth/ …pic.twitter.com/mmSeDWerF9

3) When Trump lied wildly about Middle Easterners and terrorists infiltrating the migrant caravan, multiple officials pushed an entirely bogus "official" statistic designed to support Trump's claims: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/09/05/not-just-sharpie-gate-other-times-officials-tried-fabricate-trumps-truth/ …pic.twitter.com/d8TPLi0TqH

4) When Trump fake-promised a 10 percent middle class tax cut just before the midterms, multiple officials wheeled into *official* action to make it look as if this was a real thing. It wasn't: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/09/05/not-just-sharpie-gate-other-times-officials-tried-fabricate-trumps-truth/ …pic.twitter.com/nLe9ZT27QM

5) To justify suspending the credentials of CNN reporter Jim
@Acosta after he enraged Trump, Sarah Sanders shared a video deceptively doctored to disgustingly smear Acosta: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/09/05/not-just-sharpie-gate-other-times-officials-tried-fabricate-trumps-truth/ …pic.twitter.com/87eTfQoRrI

6) After Trump fearmongered about the border by concocting a wildly false story about the binding and gagging of migrant women that was flatly debunked, a top border official went on an internal hunt for official "information" to make the story true: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/09/05/not-just-sharpie-gate-other-times-officials-tried-fabricate-trumps-truth/ …pic.twitter.com/nb5pgjKeFm

7) To buttress Trump's nonstop distortions and lies about the migrant threat, the Department of Homeland Security issued a slick, official "presentation" that used a statistic to "support" his claims that was flat-out bogus nonsense: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/09/05/not-just-sharpie-gate-other-times-officials-tried-fabricate-trumps-truth/ …pic.twitter.com/cepsFZSSZf

Another one I can think of is how the government ignored/covered up the death toll from the hurricane in Puerto Rico
