There's no question that the President of the United States shared "inflated" numbers. Why does it matter so much to you that a President who tells mistruths should be presumed to have done so unintentionally?
I really don't give a shit about Lemon, Tapper or Cuomo. If you don't think well of them, turn the TV off and do something else.

It matters for the same reason intentional vs. non-intentional mattered in the fallout from the Iraq war. Bush lying about WMD was unforgivable (and illegal, perhaps). But just fucking up unintentionally? Well, he got a second term.
And I can’t escape Lemon, Tapper, or Cuomo. I like CNN and have it in my news feed. Not only does this compel me to see endless stories about their tweet wars with Trump (and Lemon’s sermons on Trump), but other outlets also pick up these stories. I don’t wish to wipe CNN from my feed.
You can’t even escape it at the gym. At least one monitor will be running CNN at the gym. And if you look? It’s some battle with Trump.
