In a Veterans Day speech, former President Donald Trump vowed to "root out" the political left, accusing them of being America's greatest foe. He used incendiary language to refer to his opponents and accused Democrats and President Biden of rolling back his efforts to expand veteran access to healthcare, causing inflation, endangering troops in Afghanistan, and rigging elections. Trump also promised to care for veterans and divert money from "illegal aliens" to provide shelter and treatment for homeless military veterans. He expressed a desire for his upcoming trial to be televised and repeated lies and falsehoods about gas prices, energy independence, election fraud, and the 2020 elections. Trump also made derogatory remarks about Governor Ron DeSantis, Governor Chris Sununu, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and President Biden, while complimenting Dana White and President Xi Jinping of China.
