Trump Misleads About Military Pay Raises Again

According to CNN, President Donald Trump incorrectly told troops in Iraq on Wednesday that he gave them their first pay raise in more than 10 years, a falsehood he has repeatedly told. Speaking to troops at Al Asad Air Base during his surprise visit to Iraq, Trump told troops that they "just got one of the biggest pay raises you've ever received. However military pay has increased every year for more than three decades.
