“I think when Trump says things that are false, that does undermine his presidential authority and I wish he wouldn’t do it,” Moore told host Mehdi Hasan on Al Jazeera’s “Head to Head.” “He should stop saying things that are untrue.”
Hasan then pressed Moore, asking him “So he’s a liar?”

“I’m not here to defend everything that Donald Trumps says,” Moore noted later in the interview.
