From the editor: Any cognizant, informed American realizes Donald Trump is a pathological liar.  His inner compulsion is to lie every time he moves his teeth, especially with numbers, which he doubles and triples unnecessarily.  

Trump's campaign lie about immigrants living in Springfield, Ohio eating the resident's cats and dogs was not repeated in his recent address to Congress, but Trump is still lying about Springfield.  He just can't help himself as "truth is not in him." (1 John 2:4)

Mayor Rob Rue corrects him in the article below:

DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) – The mayor of Springfield, Ohio, has responded after his city was mentioned during President Trump’s address to Congress Tuesday night.

“Entire towns like Aurora, Colorado, and Springfield, Ohio, buckled under the weight of the migrant occupation and corruption like nobody’s ever seen before,” said Trump. “Beautiful towns destroyed.”

In a statement released Wednesday, Mayor Rob Rue disagreed with the latter part of what the president said.

“The City of Springfield has not been destroyed,” said Rue. “On the contrary, we are seeing economic growth and new housing developments. Community leaders are actively collaborating and making decisions to move the city forward.”

Rue said that the mention of Springfield didn’t come as a surprise as the city had been highlighted in Trump’s executive order on immigration.

He said that while the city’s resources had been strained by the influx of new residents, a majority of the migrants had been “living peacefully.”

“The greatest hardship we have faced in the past six months is the mischaracterization of our city. We need to be recognized as a community that, despite its challenges, is continuing to move forward and is far from being destroyed.”

Rue concluded by expressing a desire for the Trump administration to implement an immigration policy that will enrich the country.
