Not to mention his undermining of Ronny Jackson as our VA secretary, who would have been one of our best VA secretaries in history. He would have really helped reboot that agency and orient it towards veteran care. And John Tester specifically intentionally and capriciously undermined [Ronny Jackson's] appointment. And as a result, the VA is worse off. So veterans need to wake up. We also need to realize we're at the lowest participation rate of veterans in the US Capitol almost in our nation's entire history.
