No the Field relishes the chance to engage Trump.

how is he directly engaging veterans' issues? what is a single solution he's put forward concerning veterans? so far it seems his stance has gone no further than "the VA sucks". if i'm wrong i'd honestly like to hear what he has said.

Today he acknowledged the Fact the Obama Adminstration has fallen short on Veterans Affairs. This issue has been rampage the Years of Obama. There is no single solution and any candidate would concede that a careful review of the VA Facilities are in order.

Remember Phx VA, under who's watch? Let me help you . Obama

I think that would be a big mistake on the part of Republicans. They absolutely need the voters who are all in for Trump right now to come out and vote for whoever does eventually end up on the top of the GOP ticket. Boycotting Trump at this early stage would spell doom for them in November of 2016, when the Trump supporters would probably stage a boycott of their own. I highly doubt they will take this route.

Still I kind of like the idea of this. It's funny to think of the GOP candidates taking their ball and going home, just because Trump is "too mean" or some nonsense. I wouldn't be surprised though.. most of them are more willing to fight for illegal aliens than they are for real Americans, so when confronted with a person who actually takes his job and responsibilities seriously, it must cause them great distress. These career politicians have never fought for anything in their lives, aside from figuring out ways to duck out of office a couple hours early on Friday to meet their mistresses.

The VA has a long, long history of mismanagement and scandal. I know you will find this hard to hear, but it didn't just begin under Obama. Here, let me help YOU:

The poll was conducted July 16-19, 2015. Trump made his comments on the 18th and they became common knowledge to news junkies later that day and the next.
Don't confuse them with facts.

It's pretty much the same for just about every issue he talks about. He is great at pointing out problems, but has nothing to offer by way of solutions outside of, "It sucks!" Lots of volume and lots and lots of words, but no real ideas to fix anything.

This has been going on for years since Nam and your are correct. But it has certainly come to a head with the Phx VA Scandal and the mismanagement of funds high has forced may resignations with in the VA. The current President(Obama) has the commitment to help Vets and take service to a higher level.

Obama does not take our vets seriously and choices to Play golf on the weekend.

Obama is still a failure in may of us Vets and I have not received one dime for my service related issues. But there are more needy than I.
