FACTS: Tell whole story
Coeur d'Alene Press | UPDATED 8 years, 3 months AGO
It is disgusting that you import an article in the world/nation section of your paper and do not fact check the stories before printing them in your paper. On page three of The Press of Oct. 4, an unknown writer wrote “Trump Suggests vets with PTSD are weak.” After the last quote by Donald Trump which ended with “And they are horror stories. They see events that you couldn’t see in a movie, nobody would believe it.” What the writer did not write was the continuation of the answer to the Marine Staff Sargent’s question, if Mr. Trump would get spiritual help and other help for these veterans. Mr. Trump said, “Yes I would. He continued, “No, we need a mental health help and medical. It is one of the things that is least addressed and it is one of the things that I hear most about when I go and talk to the veterans, so we are going to have a robust, very robust level of performance having to do with mental health. We are losing so many great people that can be taken care of if they have proper care.” After Mr. Trump said a few words about the suicides and mental health, the veterans and retired military people there were pleased with what he said. He received applause from the audience. The entire speech is on YouTube under Latinos Support Trump, Full Speech: Donald Trump Speaks to Veterans in Herndon, Va.
