Trump's foreign policy adviser allegedly lied about being in the model U.N.

While no one else at the 2012 Geneva International Model United Nations delegation may remember his presence, Donald Trump's foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos certainly seems to remember being there. Written on Papadopoulos' resume — among various other claims that The Washington Post calls into question — is that he served as a "U.S. Representative at the 2012 Geneva International Model United Nations." Upon asking two people who were part of the delegation that year, including the current secretary general of the Geneva program, The Washington Post reports that both "had no recollection of him being there."
