VA workers - we were called WHAT?

i'm sickened and stunned. I'm also in a position where I could be seriously hurt if someone who was mentally ill decided to take those words seriously. And i'm disabled, so I wouldn't be able to get away fast enough.

I'm going to try to chalk this up to another day, another .. wtf?, but this could really get caregivers hurt.

I love my job and I love my Veterans. We do the very best we can.

I just can't say anymore, I'm too brokenhearted about ... well, about everything

Helping the Veterans of this country. You have my sincere appreciation.

I wish I had positive words of consolation to offer you but nothing seems to meet an appropriate standard after what he said. Trump is...every negative adjective that exists. Reading what he said tonight at his rally is terrifying.

And, since I haven't heard a single other person, liar or not, disparage the VA lately, I am just gonna call this another one of his endless supply of untruths.

So, you must be doing a great job!

Probably just the latest ploy to undermine socialized medicine.

Carry on with your badly needed work.
