hit piece or Trump is lying about a pay raise for the military?

a reply to: notsure1

ok
youre on the side of its a lie


noted

I wonder who the folks are who tried to fight him on this bogus pay raise. LOLOLOL

it's all so #ing hilarious when you think on it..

god damn, he is a tiny man.

a reply to: notsure1

SO IS THIS.

Which part is the BS part? Or is all of it BS? Did he not even say he got them a 10% pay raise? Did he not even say it was the first raise they'd gotten in ten years, more than ten years? If he didn't say it, what's your take on the video of him saying it?

Or did he say it, but it's entirely true? So is the DoD lying about the percentage the raise actually is? Is the DoD lying about what years raises have happened?

I'm just really trying to parse out what it is that's "BS" about this story.

“They had plenty of people that came up. They said, ‘You know, we could make it smaller. We could make it 3 percent. We could make it 2 percent. We could make it 4 percent.’ I said, ‘No. Make it 10 percent. Make it more than 10 percent.’ Because it’s been a long time. It’s been more than 10 years. It’s been more than 10 years. That’s a long time. And, you know, you really put yourselves out there, and you put your lives out there. So congratulations.”


the troops should hold him to it.

Looks to me like they are getting a raise. He wanted them to get one and they are getting one.

But go figure you iberals dont think its enough,

now that that is out of the way lets hear your opinion on this lie*

*could be yuge fake news

We can say he is lying and then sing kumbaya together...lol Or we can say Trump wants them to have a big raise, 10% is not workable no matter what the President wants since Congress sets the amount. The deal is Trump did push for a very large military budget and got it and this means the Military is getting its largest pay raise in 9 years....

Trump speeches are always over the top, so yes he pretty much lies then in everyone if that is how you want to view them...

cool

so what about trump lying?

Way to completely miss what I just said.

The op needs to stop swinging from Trumps sack, pathetic.

the military is getting a raise. AmIrite? But still Huffpo finds a way to turn it into a hit piece.

Then the minions go spread the obvious BS hit piece that he doesnt care about the troops.

When he is bringing them home to their families.

No you re pathetic. Why cant you make an OP saying hey look Trump gave the troops a raise and he is bringing them home?

Because you have to keep the hate alive . So whos pathetic?

a reply to: notsure1


can you explain how calling trump out on his lies is keeping the hate alive?

a reply to: notsure1

Looks to me like they are getting a raise. He wanted them to get one and they are getting one.

I guess I missed the part of the OP and the sources provided that said Trump claimed a raise being given when no raise is being given? Can you point that out for us? All I saw was the part where specific statements made were challenged as being factually wrong, not that no raise whatsoever was being given and he said it was.

Oh, wait, you're doing that thing where you attack points that weren't even made because you can't attack the points that were actually made, and then declare yourself the victor. Got it.

But go figure you iberals dont think its enough

As I've explained to you time and time again before, not being a right-wing mouthpiece like you doesn't make me a liberal. It just makes me not a right-wing mouthpiece like you.

a reply to: notsure1

The issue here is that trump said 10%

No such pay increase took place.

The other issue seems to stem from him saying that it was the largest in 10 years.

The only reason thats true is because of taxation wiping those raises our like mine were. This pay raise will NOT be wiped out thanks to tax cuts.

This story is a mixed bag filled with nuance that would escape most here.
