John McCain has called his own
constituents who want a secure border “crazies.” No one in the news media
or the establishment, including the Republican National Committee, criticized
the senator for those comments.
Now, as
respected reporter sharyl Atkinson has proved point by point, the news media
are also distorting my words. But that is not my point. McCain the
politician has failed the state of Arizona and the country. During my entire
business career, I have always made supporting veterans a top priority because
our heroes deserve the very best for defending our freedom. Our Department of
Veterans Affairs hospitals are outdated dumps. I will build the finest and
most modern veterans hospitals in the world. The current medical assistance to
our veterans is a disaster. A Trump administration will provide the finest
universal access health care for our veterans. They will be able to get the
best care anytime and anywhere.
Thanks to McCain and his
Senate colleague Bernie Sanders, their legislation to cover up the VA scandal,
in which 1,000+ veterans died waiting
for medical care, made sure no one has been punished, charged, jailed, fined or
held responsible. McCain has abandoned our veterans. I will fight for them.
The
reality is that John McCain the politician has made America less safe, sent our
brave soldiers into wrong-headed foreign adventures, covered up for President
Obama with the VA scandal and has spent most of his time in the Senate pushing
amnesty. He would rather protect the Iraqi border than Arizona’s. He even voted
for the Iran Nuclear Review Act of 2015, which allows Obama, who McCain lost to
in a record defeat, to push his dangerous Iran nuclear agreement through the
Senate without a supermajority of votes. A number of my competitors for the
Republican nomination have no business running for president. I do not need to
be lectured by any of them. Many are failed politicians or people who would be
unable to succeed in the private sector. Some, however, I have great respect
for. My record of veteran support is well-documented. I served as co-chairman
of the New York Vietnam Veterans Memorial Commission and was responsible, with
a small group, for getting it built. Toward this end, I contributed over $1
million so our warriors can be honored in New York City with a proper
memorial. I also helped finance and served as the grand marshal of
the 1995 Nation’s Day Parade, which honored over 25,000 veterans. It was
one of the biggest parades in the history of New York City, and I was very
proud to have made it possible.
