Iraq vet lawmaker mocks Fox host over Trump family praise

BY ROBIN EBERHARDT - 07/17/17 10:44 AM EDT

Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) used his experience as an Iraq War veteran to respond to a comment a Fox News anchor made suggesting the Trump family has done more for the country than any Democrat.

Gallego was responding to a statement made by Jesse Watters, a host of Fox News programs “The Five” and “Watters’ World.”

”Donald Trump's family has done more for this country than any Democratic elected official,” Watters said last Thursday.

Gallego has come out against President Trump in the past, criticizing his policies about veterans and calling him out for comparing his attendance of a military academy to serving in the armed forces.
