WASHINGTON (AP) — In a pair of interviews, President Donald Trump gave a skewed account of auto jobs and health care under his watch and flatly contradicted himself on how long he’s known his right-hand strategist, Steve Bannon. “Many years,” Trump said of their relationship back in August, when he made Bannon his campaign chief.

“I didn’t know him” at the time, Trump told the New York Post on Tuesday. Trump got it right the first time. Why does it matter? It comes as another indication that the president may be edging away from the conservative-populist ideologue as an inner-circle rift plays out in the White House.

A look at some of his statements in the interviews and in a brief news conference Wednesday: TRUMP: “I like Steve, but you have to remember he was not involved in my campaign until very late. I had already beaten all the senators and all the governors, and I didn’t know Steve. I’m my own strategist and it wasn’t like I was going to change strategies because I was facing crooked Hillary.” THE FACTS: Bannon was far from a stranger when he came on board near the start of the general election campaign against Democrat Hillary Clinton. Trump and Bannon had known each other for five years when the Republican candidate, a month after accepting the nomination, hired the Breitbart executive as his campaign CEO. David Bossie, who was deputy campaign manager, told AP after Trump took office that he introduced them in 2011 at Trump Tower and they grew to know each well, as Trump appeared multiple times on Bannon’s Breitbart radio show. Bannon interviewed Trump at least nine times in 2015 and 2016 and members of his family and campaign on many other occasions.

The statement quoted Trump as saying: “”I have known Steve and Kellyanne both for many years.” Friction has surfaced among Trump advisers, particularly between Bannon and Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Addressing that rift, Trump told the Post: “Steve is a good guy, but I told them to straighten it out or I will.” ___ TRUMP: “I think we’re doing very well on health care. It’s been very much misreported that we failed with health care.” — Interview with Fox Business Network, broadcast Wednesday THE FACTS: That may well be the president’s opinion, but there’s little evidence objectively to back it up. It’s been nearly three weeks since House Speaker Paul Ryan yanked the Republican bill intended to repeal and replace much of Barack Obama’s health care law. The problem: disagreements among GOP hardliners and moderates whose votes are needed to pass legislation that has no Democratic support. Since then, negotiations have led to some tweaks, but no apparent breakthroughs. The Republican bill remains deeply unpopular.

March polls by Fox News and Quinnipiac University found overall margins of opposition to the legislation approaching or even exceeding those for Obama’s law at its lowest point. A recent Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll found that among seven major issues tested, the president got his worst rating on health care. About 6 in 10 disapproved of Trump’s handling of the issue. ___ TRUMP: “The car industry is not going to leave us anymore, believe me. The car industry is staying in our country.
