The lie was dead
And damned, and truth stood up instead.

Something experienced is true; the same thing believed is a lie.

It is not the same thing. You are perhaps not lying, but you are not telling the truth.

It’s not a lie. It’s a gift for fiction.

The truth, however, was stranger still.

That there's a difference 'twixt false and true.

The world is not the way they tell you it is.

Which is better, truth that is a lie or the lie that is truth?

It was true, it was all true. But none of it was the truth.

What's real and what's true aren't necessarily the same.

It's not a lie. It's a gift for fiction.

But correct and right were two different things. As were facts and truth.

There are people who will say that this whole account is a lie, but a thing isn't necessarily a lie even if it didn't necessarily happen.

If there is one thing that our role models in this election have taught us, it's that omitting important information is completely different from lying.
