Trump keeps saying NATO spending was going down before he took office. Here is official NATO data on military spending by non-US members. Though it did fall for years post-Cold War, it increased in 2015 and 2016 (post-Crimea invasion/post-2014 recommitment to the 2% guideline). https://t.co/3KPxp9oaG8 — PolitiTweet.org

It's actually gone in phases. Trump initially went a while claiming a 93% Republican approval rating he didn't have, then turned it into a 94% Republican approval rating he didn't have, then turned it into a 95% Republican approval rating he doesn't have. https://t.co/L9w5SiSNya — PolitiTweet.org

@ddale8 But it's consistently the same number. Makes remembering it easier... (if not possible at all without a cheat sheet)

Trump could accurately say increases during his tenure have been bigger than the previous increases, and Stoltenberg has given him significant credit for the recent increases. But it's not true that spending was going straight down before he came in, as he's said over and over. — PolitiTweet.org
