‘Dumbest’ Trump Lie Of 2020: White House Nailed Over Bizarre Weather Tweet, The White House of President Donald Trump is coming under fire Sunday after a tweet that critics are already slamming as the “dumbest” lie of 2020.

And it’s all about the weather.

In what would on most days be a non-controversial message, the White House tweeted about snow:

The problem? It not only didn’t snow in Washington on Sunday, but it was also unseasonably warm, with temperatures reaching a high of 68. And if it did snow, it wouldn’t have been the first of the year for the capital.

That happened on Tuesday. Indeed, the image appears in the White House Flickr feed for that date.

It’s possibly the tweet was written Tuesday, but not sent as the Iran crisis unfolded. If that’s the case, it’s not clear why it was then sent on Sunday, when it was so clearly not snowing in Washington.

The Washington Post reported last month that Trump has unleashed a blizzard of lies, with more than 15,000 false or misleading claims since taking office in 2017.

Several have been about the weather.

At one point, Trump showed off a doctored map to make false claims about a nonexistent hurricane threat.
