Trump keeps lying when he repeats his lie that there hasn’t been a military pay raise in 10 years.
“First raise in 10 years”?
1) Military pay has gone up EVERY year for 30 years
2) Military pay went up 3.9% Under Obama in 2009
3) Military pay went up 2.4% Under TrumpTrump’s constant lies are despicable. Trump’s lying to military spouses is, well, DEPLORABLE.#TrumpLies https://t.co/nOzYILfwst

Trump lies with virtually every breath, even to the faces of the military families about key things they know first-hand to be totally false. Yet he persists as though truth doesn’t matter — or even exist. A vital facet of tyranny. https://t.co/0VnegXu8D3

Why must potus step on success by falsely denigrating past admin? He did a good thing – biggest pay raise for military in 8 yrs…but then he went too far. Again. At best got something wrong that had been corrected in past and at worst lied again. https://t.co/54vZNredqw
