President Trump, who has frequently made false and misleading statements while in office, told ABC News' Jon Karl that he tried to tell the truth, "when [he] can".
"Well, I try. I do try ... When I can, I tell the truth. And sometimes it turns out to be where something happens that’s different or there’s a change, but I always like to be truthful."
