The president told service members at al-Asad air base in Iraq that he was proud to secure them a much-needed pay bump of “more than 10 percent” after years of stagnant wages.

“Is anybody here willing to give up the big pay raise you just got?” Trump said, asking for a show of hands. “You haven’t gotten one in more than 10 years. More than 10 years. And we got you a big one. I got you a big one. I got you a big one.”

In fact, military members have seen a pay raise in each of the last 10 years, ranging from 1 percent to 3.9 percent, according to the Defense Department.

“We had plenty of people that came up. They said, ‘You know, we can make it smaller. We can make it 3 percent. We can make it 2 percent. We can make it 4 percent.’ I said, ‘No. Make it 10 percent. Make it more than 10 percent.’”

The pay increase for 2019 passed by Congress and signed by the president in August will be 2.6 percent.

Lol. How can someone this dumb be the president of the USA.

Either he is retarded or he is deliberately lying to the troops.

"Either he is retarded or he is deliberately lying to the troops."

Why not both?

I feel like this claim has to be based on SOMETHING - people tend to notice when their salaries go up or down and by how much, so if Trump's completely making it up he's definitely going to get called out on it eventually.

Has he done the same shit in his companies? Telling his employees how good he treated them while everybody knew it was a lie? But nobody disagreed in public because they feared they would get fired?

Except he does this kind of shit all the time, gets called on it, and his supporters still eat their shit sandwiches with giant grins.

He is being called out on it but the dummies can't pull their heads out of their asses to see what a lying sack of shit Trump is.

"and he’s taken credit for passing a law that allows veterans to use private doctors if they can’t get quick care through the Department of Veterans Affairs. That law was actually signed by Barack Obama."

Just like the economy, taking credit from BO.
