Despite
a warning from Lev Parnas, President Trump claimed not to know him
again Thursday. "I don't know Parnas, other than I guess I had pictures
taken, which I do with thousands of people," Trump told reporters in the
Oval Office. "I don't know him at all, don't know what he's about,
don't know where he comes from, know nothing about him. ... I don't
believe I've ever spoken to him."
Joseph Bondy, Parnas' lawyer, brought the receipts, posting a video taken at Mar-a-Lago in December 2016, where Trump is clearly talking with Parnas, who is standing next to him and also Roman Nasirov, a former Ukrainian official charged with embezzlement.
The Washington Post used that video in a jaunty roundup of Parnas posing, often on multiple occasions, next to Trump and other Republicans who claimed not to know him.
[b]Calling Parnas a "Giuliani associate" is "way too limited — he is a full-fledged member of Trump Co," Chris Cuomo said on CNN Thursday night. As he ran through the details, he showed photo after photo of Parnas and Trump or members of his family and inner circle. "There are so many that I had to leave pictures out," Cuomo said.
Infact, Parnas' connection to Trump stretches back to the 1980s, when he sold real estate for Trump's father, Fred Trump, The Washington Post reported in October. "When Parnas was 16, he worked at Kings Highway Realty, selling Trump Organization co-ops." Adam Entous elaborated at The New Yorker. Parnas told The New Yorker that job "was my first time knowing who Trump was, but, growing up in that area, you knew who Trump was, because his name was all over the place." After Parnas moved to Florida in 1995, Entous added, "on visits to New York, he stayed at Trump properties."[/b]

Here is Trump saying "I don't know him at all,
don't know what he's about, don't know where he comes from, know nothing
about him. ... I don't believe I've ever spoken to him."
Lev Parnas' ties to President Trump run deep according to CNN
CNN's Chris Cuomo says referring to Lev Parnas as an associate of Rudy Giuliani is "way too limited. He is a full-fledged member of Trump co. Here are numerous Pictures of Lev Parnas with Trump, Trumps Children, Wives (both ex and current), Close associates to trump etc

So
who then is lying especially since Lev Parnas's relationship with Trump
runs as far back as to Trumps Father, Fred Trump as he worked for him
same time Trump worked for his father in New York City?
Plus how would Trump allow anyone he did not know or who was not close to him to come close to his Children, wives (both ex and current) and close associates?
