Except they aren't just sticking with their lies in the heat of the moment. They are doubling down years later after the story has been prove to be a lie. This is more than "float a lie out there for 24 hours". This is "deny reality, consequences be damned, for years on end".
I think I read somewhere that psychopaths don't understand reality, truth or risk (& of course, they don't know love, either, but that's another point) They just repeat their lies. If they say them enough & enough people believe them, that's as much as they care. What really happened, truth & higher purpose make no sense to them
