Donald Trump's Comment on Injured Soldiers Sparks Veteran Anger'Insulting'
"Former president Donald Trump has been called out by veterans after he again downplayed the traumatic brain injuries suffered by U.S troops in an Iranian missile strike on an airbase in Iraq in 2020.
At a campaign event in Milwaukee, Trump, the Republican nominee, was asked if he should have been tougher on Tehran after more than 100 soldiers were injured in a missile attack on the Ain al-Asad air base in Iraq in January 2020, when he was president.
"So first of all, injured. What does injured mean? Injured means, you mean because they had a headache? Because the bombs never hit the fort," Trump said. "So just so you understand, there was nobody ever tougher on Iraq," he added, apparently misspeaking by saying Iraq rather than Iran.
Trump, who has a history of controversies involving the military and veterans, had sparked criticism for downplaying the injuries in the days after the attack. "I heard that they had headaches and a couple of other things," he told reporters in 2020, adding that the injuries were "not very serious.""
