Trump Suggests Vets Who Need Mental Health Services Aren't 'Strong'

'Thought bubbles' above the heads of at least some of the audience members: "What could this draft dodging jag-bag possibly know about what I could or could not handle?"

Donald Trump called for robust mental health services for veterans in a Monday speech, even as he suggested that victims of post-traumatic stress disorder and combat-related suicide aren't as "strong" as their comrades.

"People come back from war and combat and they see things that maybe a lot of the folks in this room have seen many times over," Trump said in an address to the Retired American Warriors in Herndon, Virginia. "And you're strong and you can handle it, but a lot of people can't handle it."

He went on to call for stronger mental health initiatives for veterans, promising a "very, very robust level of performance having to do with mental health."
