Not only that but he said he gave them a 10% raise when it was only 2.6%. What a liar.

Why...why does Donald Trump continue to lie? He just flat out says things that aren't true. I wish an informed Trump supporter would come into this thread and explain to us why they feel Trump lies so often.

I really don't understand why he doesn't check facts before he opens his mouth and looks stupid.

LOL, I love how they say incorrectly or mislead when they obviously outright lied about it.

Because he may be a pathological liar? Just says whatever at the time to make himself look good.

if you had read what you quoted you could have answered your own question:

December 25th: "I've spoken to many federal employees, they all support me and want me to continue with the shutdown because they want the wall."

December 27th: "Democrats are hurting themselves because most federal employees are democrats."


Donald...which is it?! #liar

WHY DOES HE DO STUFF LIKE THAT?! All he had to do is visit the troops. It’s a feel good photo op, easy peasy! It’s like he can find a way to screw up ANYTHING. Ugh, he’s so incredibly frustrating.

I imagine that the soldiers in attendance enjoyed the lies President Trump told.



After all, that is Mr. Trump's 'act': he gets in front of an audience and lies.



If I were to go to a Trump speech, I would go hoping that he lives up to his billing and tells lies that would make the news.



If one were to go to a Billy Joel concert, and Mr. Joel announced that instead of singing and playing the piano, he would show off some dance moves he had been working on, I, and the rest of the audience, would feel disappointed.



So, when I saw clips of the troops cheering, I felt that they were cheering, in part, the magnitude of the lies that Mr. Trump was telling. Indeed, the soldiers were probably gratified that they were lies that needed no fact checking, for they all knew about how they had gotten annual raises (which shrank to 1 or 2 percent once Republicans took over the Senate in 2010) for the past 10+ years, and how they knew that they were not receiving a 10 percent (or more!) raise for the next year.



Yes. I'm sure that our military attendees returned to their barracks pleased that the President of the United States of America lived up to his billing.
