THEY. ALL. LIE.
"Yes," Pompeo replied.
"But the President said he doesn't," Tapper said.
"That's not what he said ... I know precisely what he said," Pompeo said.
"He tweeted: 'There is no longer a nuclear threat from North Korea,'" Tapper said.

(82,849 posts)No Mike, we can read his tweet just fine. It says, "There is no longer a nuclear threat from North Korea." 10 words. Easy peasy. Certainly it communicated what he wanted to say at the moment he tweeted it. It was quite useful for a news cycle. Now you want to backpedal, dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge. But the tweet's still there. Embarrassing, I should think.

Besides, the image of Pompeo and wet dreams is almost as bad as dump dumping his fat ass full of budgers and cancer-sodas.
