Trump, who got draft deferments to avoid Vietnam service, on the Medal of Honor, with a smile: "I wanted one but they told me I don't qualify. I said could I give it to myself anyway? They said I don't think that's a good idea." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump begins his speech to veterans by repeating, for more than the 85th time as president, his false claim that he got the Veterans Choice program passed after more than 44 years of failure. Obama signed it into law in 2014. "We got it, so congratulations," Trump said to cheers. — PolitiTweet.org

(Trump was smiling when he said this, and people in the crowd did laugh. I'm just personally wary of declaring he's joking about anything, because, like, buying Greenland.) https://t.co/FTQWklxgDr — PolitiTweet.org

Trump jokes about giving himself the Medal of Honor at #AMVETS75th. It's a joke. The crowd chuckles.
