If someone claims you got a 10% raise for the first time in 10 years, will you actually have access to that money even if that 10% is really 2.6%?

Will you applaud the person who claims you got a 10% raise even though it is not true because it is a fake claim?

Americans seems to be really good at respecting the symbols. The flag, the monument, the Office. Rather that the person or event they are tied to. In this case, Trump. And I think this is particularly true for Service men and women. Then tend to be more patriotic. Thats how they ended up in uniform. And their esprit de corp keeps them in lock step with a symbol like the President. Their job is to defend the Office.
So they get that Trump was lying through his teeth..... But the President was also speaking.
