Maddow: Trump To End The System That's Taken Care Of Veterans Since 1790s, Not What People Voted For
Deep State Propagandist Rachel Maddow: A salutary moment, stick a pin in that, right. Whatever the country thought they were voting for when they voted for Donald Trump for president, I think it's safe to say that screwing over veterans and messing with their healthcare, messing with veterans healthcare was probably not part of the sales pitch, right? But Trump did try instituting an across the board hiring freeze of the VA. So people who want to work for veterans in that system were being told no, were being shown the door, only outrage and public push back, backed them off that. And when Paul Rieckhoff, founder of IAVA, again signals that this is something that folks in Trump's orbit have wanted to do. Demoralizing, shrinking, weakening the VA workforce is something they wanted to do because they wanted to effectively get rid of the VA. They wanted to privatize it. Indeed, he is on solid ground in saying that. Trump's nominee to run the VA is Doug Collins. His nominee to run the Defense Department is Pete Hegseth. Again, we are gonna have some more news on Pete Hegseth coming up later this hour. But both of these nominees for the second Trump term for VA and for defense, both of them have crusaded to privatize the VA, which means effectively ending the VA, because, yeah, sorry, veterans, there's money to be made here somewhere. So we're gonna privatize it and get rid of the system that's been taking care of American veterans since, oh, I don't know, the 1790s. I mean, stopping doctors and nurses and counselors from working at the VA, trying to ultimately to get rid of the VA. This is not a thing that is a popular idea among the American public. This, I don't think is what people thought they were voting for.

Rachel Maddow is not a journalist but an anti-Trump Democrat propagandist who defends a corrupt system operated by criminals and incompetents. President Trump and the people he nominates are going to improve healthcare for Veterans.
