She would be the one who created the issue with a lie. It's an ugly charge to make. Now if he did say it and is denying it, I don't think that lie would be as bad. He'd be lying to cover up his despicable remark out of self interest and while he'd be held accountable for the lie, I think Wilson making up the thing outright is much more damning and would require her resignation. Her lie is slander at a very high level.
Well, if she's telling the truth, Trump's lies to cover up insulting a war widow would be a bigger failure of office than her reporting falsehoods heard from a war widow to the media. The consequences still don't line up, unless you're only really capable of assigning blame to her. If he's lying, this begins at Trump, he would be the one who created the issue.
