This whole dust-up over inauguration numbers strikes me as more than a little Orwellian. Trump (according to his own people) was 'enraged' at coverage of the size of his inauguration crowd, so he sent his newly-minted press rep (in a markedly ill-fitting suit, btw) out to lecture journalists on what they should and should not be covering, and was helpful enough to provide them with the false facts that the administration wanted them to have. If the lie is repeated often enough and forcefully enough, it becomes the officially sanctioned narrative and, thus, the 'truth'.
