He has told this lie over 100 times. I am glad someone said something to him about it. It was passed in 2014 and signed by Obama.
Trump said again that he’s done more for veterans than John McCain did.

Like by getting the Veterans Choice law.
Which was signed in 2014.
And co-authored by John McCain. https://t.co/MQRgQXEwNR
Trump again tonight in comments to the pool: My way of dealing with vets is “much more successful” than John McCain’s, “with Choice and Accountability and all the things I've got.”

He is taking credit for *McCain’s own bill* to argue that he’s done more than McCain. https://t.co/4XjGBdLzHt
"We passed Veterans Choice," Trump lies for more than the 150th time of the program signed into law by Obama in 2014.

It's fairly alarming that the President has been lying for years at nearly every public event about passing a bill and this may be the first time a reporter has challenged him about it to his face. https://t.co/93YX6Svidu

!!! Trump is challenged for I think the first time ever on why he keeps lying that he got Veterans Choice passed – and he ends the “news conference” and walks out.

"We passed Choice, as you know," Trump says for at least the 143rd time of the bill signed into law by Obama in 2014, "and they've been trying to get that for decades and decades and decades and no president's ever been able to do it."

Trump begins his August 8 Bedminster news conference with some casual xenophobia, and takes credit for Veterans Choice legislation that was actually signed into law by President Obama in 2014 pic.twitter.com/NPjNdhDHQ2

Trump just took credit for Veterans Choice legislation.

The Veterans' Access to Care through Choice, Accountability, and Transparency Act was signed into law by President Obama in 2014.
He’s so bad at everything he’s not even good at lying. pic.twitter.com/ZjuuCoNKLc
