say (that) black is white
say (that) black is white
To say, believe, or act like what's true is the opposite of the real situation. The government can't keep saying black is white, or else we're going to head into the same economic difficulty we were in 10 years ago. The president could say that black is white, and he would still have people lining up to say that he is right.
