'A serial fabricator': Ex-CIA officer nails Trump for making up a story when he sees one he doesn't

“What’s your reaction?” Blitzer asked Mudd.

“This is pretty simple,” Mudd said. “When the president sees a story he doesn’t like, he makes up a story. If he were an informant, we would call him a serial fabricator.”

Mudd then explained Trump’s differing views from his top intelligence chiefs.

“The Intel guys said repeatedly, including after and during the elections, it’s the Russians,” Mudd said.



“The point is simple. If the narrative doesn’t match the president’s, who wants to say we’re winning, he makes something up. It’s not complicated.”
