I married her. She wasn't like that until I was stuck with her.

Proper coaching & development for this person:
Homework: Pareto Analysis reading
Action: Present in ~1 slide (or less) why this was your homework
Discussion:
When perfect is the enemy of good.
When you aim for perfection, you may miss completion.
Good enough today beats perfect tomorrow.
You don’t need perfect data to make a better decision than doing nothing.
And most importantly, it’s not what u say but how people feel. Quit pissing me off!

When someone knows the truth, but tells a lie anyway - it tends to make them upset. They are unwilling to accept responsibility for this cognitive dissonance, so it makes them hostile to people that can see through their bullshite.
This is why women say things like, "I don't want you to fix the problem, I just want you to listen." It's because they already know the solution, but hearing someone else say it infuriates them.
This is the crux of the issue. You are dealing with irrational people when someone is hostile to reality.

I have a close family member like that. I try my best to tune it out, but when you literally cannot make a single comment or express any thought whatsoever without them well actually'ing you, it gets annoying fast.

My step son love him to death but yet he always take the opposite position
He grew up to be an attorney - which is perfect for him.
I used to say he’d argue with the Pope and he’d reply “no i wouldn’t” lol

Welcome to marriage.
A few years ago I seemed to notice this trend. So I intentionally started baiting her by taking perfectly reasonable, non controversial positions on things just to see if she’d go the other way. She’s fallen for it 100 percent of the time. At this point I think she’d argue that the sky is not really blue.

My wife is terrible about always taking the other side. I once asked her if she did it among her friends, warning her that if she did it would alienate her from them eventually.

I'm not saying I disagree with you, but there are actually arguments that it isn't depending on the definition of "wet."

My current favorite is, kid will ask "what time is it?". I'll tell them it's 9:45am. She'll bust out, well actually it's 9:48am. I give the sure, whatever.
Later that day, kid will ask for the time. "It's almost bedtime, it's 7:43pm. She'll bust out, you could just say 7:45pm

Yes, or 'topper'. The comic strip, Dilbert, would occasionally feature this character. Was always funny.
It's a bit of a character flaw. There was even a saying that doesn't get used much anymore that went something like this, "He'd rather tell a lie, when the truth would suit him better!"
