Donald Trump's inventions about Sen. Blumenthal and Vietnam
tulc(this is President Trumps 202nd false, his 88th since taking office)Trump said Blumenthal said he saw battle in Da Nang, and "then he cried when they caught him."
Blumenthal never spoke of fighting in Da Nang or anywhere else in Vietnam. He did not cry when he acknowledged his misleading statements.
Those elements are pure Trump invention. We rate this claim False.
