“We express our eternal gratitude to all the veterans in this room and to all the proud veterans of the great state of New Hampshire,” he began his speech.

Trump also paid tribute to several Gold Star family members who had lost loved ones in the tragic withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan under the Biden administration.

A mortar attack occurred on August 26, 2021, outside Kabul Airport as part of the mismanaged withdrawal. This incident claimed the lives of 170 Afghan civilians and 13 US service members.

According to RSBN, when the remains of the fallen soldiers were later returned, Biden checked his watch numerous times while paying his respects, which many Gold Star families deemed “disrespectful.”

In a speech to residents of the Granite State on Saturday, Trump pledged that if he claimed the White House, veterans “will once again receive the loyalty, respect and support that they so richly deserve and have won”.

He also said, “I will also make it a personal mission to completely eradicate veteran homelessness in America.”

In support of his claim that he has helped veterans as president, Trump cited the Veterans Accountability Act and VA Choice.

Trump also touted his record of helping veterans as president, citing the Veterans Accountability Act and VA election as evidence of that.

“After years of scandal, betrayal and neglect under the Obama-Biden administration, I signed the VA Accountability Act, which allowed us to tell the sadists who abused our veterans, ‘You’re fired.'” , Trump said.

“I also signed VA Choice and made it permanent so veterans can get medical care from the private health care provider of their choice,” Trump noted.

He added: “Under the Trump administration, we lived by the motto: ‘PROMISES MADE, PROMISES FULFILLED,’ and there is no more solemn commitment than a promise to America’s veterans.”

Trump added that “On day one, I will sign an executive order to cut off Biden’s money for housing and transporting illegal aliens and redirect a large portion of the savings to provide shelter and treatment to our own veterans without home.”
