But THECZAR's "attempt to use a different statistic" is FACTUAL. It is
therefore not the same as Trump's making up a number. And moreover if Trump had said what you say he should have said, he'd still have been LYING. Because it isn't 60-70% of Germany's natural gas, and it isn't 60-70% of Germany's imported energy.
Your argument here is almost exactly Steven Colbert's former in-character assertion that facts have a liberal bias. (he was kidding, though, and that you appear to have tied yourself into a knot where you are serious, should concern you.)
And your conclusion--that Trump's point remains valid--is only sustainable if, again, facts don't matter. (As I re-read that sentence I realize that facts indeed don't matter anymore, and I'm the naive one, like Kay Corleone...)
