Trump - Incompetent Even At Telling Lies

Trump has tossed Melania out as a witness to his anguish over not being able to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and Memorial in Belleau, France.  Instead of disparaging the dead Americans, he says he "called home" to express his disappointment at being unable to visit the site.  One problem, Melania wasn't at "home" she was traveling with Trump in France.
Trump told reporters yesterday that he "called home" to Melania Trump at the time and told her how upset he was for not being able to visit the cemetery. At the time, the White House said he was unable to attend and had to cancel the visit because of bad weather.
Trump claims he "called home, I spoke to my wife and I said 'I hate this. I came here to go to that ceremony.' And to the one that was the following day which I did go to. I said I feel terribly. And that was the end of it."
Facts First: Melania Trump was on the same trip with the President and was scheduled to attend the cemetery visit. She was not in the US.
Trump routinely gets away with lies about his golf score, but he's struggling to find a viable lie to get out from under his egregious behavior in France.
