Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said Sunday that illegal immigrants receive better care than the nation’s veterans, electrifying an overwhelmingly supportive crowd at the annual Rolling Thunder tribute to the armed forces.
Trump has mocked Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) for being captured during the Vietnam War and faced questions about his giving to veterans’ causes, but those issues did little to dampen the enthusiasm for his message at the Lincoln Memorial.
As he spoke from a stage at the edge of the Reflecting Pool, Trump hit upon many of themes that have animated his campaign: winning better trade deals, keeping out illegal immigrants and lowering taxes for businesses and the middle class.
Trump promised the crowd, which included thousands of veterans, that he would rebuild the military and improve health care for veterans, which he said has been shamefully bad in recent years.
“When you think of the great General Patton and all our generals, they are spinning in their graves when they watch we can’t beat ISIS,” Trump said, referring to the celebrated World War II commander. “We are going to knock the hell out of them.”
