Trump: I Got the VA Accountability Act Passed

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

TRUMP: “Now they can go and see a doctor. Waiting online for weeks and weeks and weeks. And we got them accountability. You couldn’t fire anybody in the V.A. You had people that took advantage of our veterans. They hit them. They were sick people. You couldn’t fire them. You had thieves that were stealing, openly stealing. You couldn’t fire them. I got a bill passed, V.A. Accountability. Now you look at the guy, you say get the hell out of here, you’re fired, get out. 
[ Cheering and applause ] 
Nobody thought we could get it, for 40 years they tried to get it. For 40 years they tried to get they couldn’t get it. And V.A. Choice, they thought for many, many decades they’ve been trying to get V.A. Choice, you couldn’t get it. Now instead of waiting online for two days, nine days, three weeks, people were dying. People that weren’t very sick would be dead by the time they saw a doctor six weeks later. Now these great veterans, if there’s a big wait, they go outside, they go to a local doctor, we pay the bills, they get better, everybody’s happy and we actually save a lot of money, if you can believe it. And I got that approved after 44 years of being unable to get it approved for veterans. We love our veterans.”
