actor portraying a businessman or a POTUS in a film or on TV. So he's not lying -- his character is lying. He does nothing wrong because his character is always correct. Plus, everyone else is also lying. Very interesting.

his sick show will be cancelled!!!!!

Not as profoundly so as the Professor, but I have questioned whether or not he is truly "lying", as I was never sure if he knew the difference between the truth and what he proclaimed.
