There is a famous apocryphal story that George Washington cut down his father's prize cherry tree with his new axe and said when questioned ,confessed with the words, "I can not tell a lie.".
Lincoln was known as "Honest Abe".
A lie, which is a lie
the cake is a lie... the cake is a lie... the cake is a lie... the cake is a lie... the cake is a lie... the cake is a lie...
Of course the President can lie, just like almost any other human. However, if a President is proved to have lied to the public on a matter of public interest, that constitutes grounds for impeachment.
