"What President Trump is trying to do is to balance and shift the burden of Europe's security to European allies, instead of to American taxpayers, plumbers and hard-working people in my home state of Iowa and other states,"

After the first half I would have commented "coping or lying", but with the second half - yeah, they're definitely lying. It's their default, their standard lying. Publicly saying one thing, and doing entirely unrelated or opposite things.

This should always be called and labelled what it is. Not strange remarks, irritations, or whatever. Manipulative, oppressive lies, manipulation, propaganda. Their lying and doublespeak is just like Putin. And in terms of actions, we must not expect anything else, no more trustworthiness or reliability.
