When are you going to prove the statement wrong? What is EUCOM's annual budget. How did you miss that kinda important fact?

navarrotells If you hate someone, he lies. If you like someone, they exaggerate. If you like someone, you’ll provide them a context. If you hate them, you’ll ignore context. Absence of integrity in judgment is more evil than the the perceived object of judgment.

He’s wrong or lied again.

Won't someone, anyone with authority tell Trump to shut his ill-informed trap and say nothing at all if he doesn't know or doesn't want to know the facts.

Does anyone believe him, anymore? His lies are so infamous, I can't imagine anyone being gullible enough to take anything he says as fact.

More Lies and Red Meat for his Cult Followers!! It won’t work.

No he’s not. How much does it cost to have all the troops in Europe? How much intel and logistics do we support them with? How would any European country strategically mobilize? Etc.... the papers though and the comments are happy to attack with zero knowledge

TRUMP A PAS DIT COMME ÇA POUR (LES MILLIARDS)MENSONGES

Better than usual headline. Even better: Trump is wrong in saying the US pays 'hundreds of billions' to protect Europe. Start with the important truth

No, he is LYING, a big difference

Anything new. He does not love facts.

navarrotells Can we just post the headlines when he is right ? Would be much simpler

CyrusToulabi He lies.

DianeKovacs Trump is the number One source of FakeNews . Remember, he proudly told us he invented FakeNews

Where does he get his facts and numbers?

Oh Lord! God Bless the Washington Post with ALL that they’ve coming to them. Just say’n... IMO NeverForget

Of course realDonaldTrump is wrong he is always wrong he is a criminal

And when he was not ?!!!

If anything, the capabilities of the European forces even worse than their financial contributions — a couple of decades ago, George Robertson (gen sec of NATO) said USA spends 50% of the budget but has 80% of the capability. I guess, since then it has only got worse

The European Deterrence Initiative costs $3.4 billion.

Tell the nation WP how much do we pay?

He’s not just wrong, he’s lying.

You can just say, 'He's lying.' Saying it once *might* be wrong, if you give him the benefit of the doubt. But after three years, it's just another one of his repeated lies.

Of course he's right. Since 1945 the US has paid billions in protecting Europe. Only leftis in the media could deny it. Btw, the same leftists who whine about military spending. Suddenly they are playing accounting games saying there's no cost. Lol

What makes anyone think he ever tells the truth. If his mouth or fingers are moving, he's lying.

His climate and environmental policies will not only cost you (in America) and us (in Europe) hundreds of billions of dollars, but it will also significantly worsen the quality of life on our planet. He does not protect anything but destroys ... 😟

realDonaldTrump of course hes wrong. The man is an idiot. Only believes what he hears on the State Network...Fox!

Again, if he’s breathing, its lies and BS

Lies, lies, lies. Does he know he‘s lying or is he really ignorant of world politics? Chose which is worse 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

How much did the US pay to kill the Afghans since 9/11

So what else is new?

I suspected the guy had his facts wrong. As usual.

Europe needs protection from Trump.

... he is rightt bloomberg and others had show an increase in usa spending for europe : rose 3 billion in his presidency ... And indirect large navy protecting the sealanes ... smallminded europe carrier group is non existing ...

He never is right

Trump making up facts, well who knew that the man who has lied every day of his presidency would continue doing so. 5000TrumpLies

HE'S LYING. Just say HE'S LYING.

Ahahaha no he's not wrong it's well known and has been backed up for years as a fact! is fake news

he is a pathological LIAR and he has to be treated as such. Period. Unfortunately there are SO MANY individuals who LOVE his lies because they feed their HATRED. realDonaldTrump the liar in chief, the bully in chief and the hate monger in chief. Disgusting. He LIES 24/7

He's always wrong. This is a daily occurrence.

He knows nothing.

The experts speak again. Anything Trump does or says is wrong according to the . Let me guess .... your crack research team spent 5 minutes coming up with these conclusions!

realdonaldtrump the fair weather President is wrong on most things.

Of course he is wrong. Trump right is an oxymoron.

Trump lies about everything. Everything!!

Where does he get his data? How idiotic

'He's wrong' indicates he attempted to give a truthful statement but fell short... The proper response is 'He Lied' You're welcome

How is wrong and he also lied. FFS call it what it is. A fvcking lie.

He’s always wrong. He lies

BREAKING: TRUMP WRONG AGAIN!

quelle surprise

His followers are low enough IQ to believe him

That is a given.

why did we make a mentally ill, doddering old man president?

Everything he says is a lie. As we are all too painfully well aware.

The work you are looking for is “lying”. It really isn’t a difficult word.

This just in, water is wet

I would say “occupy” instead of “protect”.... In that case, he’s probably right.

Yes he is wrong. But it plays well with his base.

Donald Trump is wrong about something. Also grass is usually green.

And they don't even pay him like the Saudis do. Can you believe it?

*Lying. He's not just wrong, he's lying.
