Trump claimed that he was in Scotland the day before the Brexit vote.
But he was there one day afterwards, not before.
Journalists who were there with Trump, such as the BBC's Jon Sopel, were quick to point out his error:
"Bizarre. Donald Trump says he came to Turnberry the day before Brexit and he told everyone that he thought Brexit would happen. And that he predicted correctly what would happen the next day. Umm. Not true. He came the day after Brexit. I was there. June 24"
Trump: "I'm not bad at doing things. If you look at what I've done compared to what other people have done 160 days in, there's nobody even close, I don't believe."
He's been president for 540 days.
Trump then went on to add new imaginary details - "at the 9th hole, overlooking the ocean" - to his total lie about being in Scotland the day before Brexit and predicting it. Tells the assembled media that they will all probably remember this.
