Trump is such a liar. Ordinarily, this sort of story and lie would do considerable damage to a presidency. But Trump's supporters don't hold him morally responsible to be honest.
if a president suddenly starts lying non-stop in the middle of his presidency, then yes, it would put off his supporters. but with trump, the fact that you cant take the things he says at face value has been part of his brand since the primaries. it's factored in by his supporters.
the thing with trump is that he's lying a lot of the times in unusual situations, but he is also telling the truth in a lot of situation where a normal politician would be telling (unprovable) lies.
