Four years later, the story apparently weighs on Trump’s mind.
“Think about it from a practical standpoint,” Trump told a crowd in Las Vegas earlier this month.
“I’m standing there with generals and military men in a cemetery, and I look at them and say, ‘These people are losers and losers.’ Now think about it; unless you’re a psychopath, a lunatic, or a really stupid person, who would say that anyway?”
