Wild thing to say about VA staffers
Trump: "We had a lot of bad people at the VA & you weren't able bc of the various unions & laws to fire anybody. I got that taken care of in Congress & we let go of 9,000 people & put in 9,000 loving people. People that love the vets. We had sadists in there, we had people that were just horrible."
