Businessman Donald Trump said Monday that illegal immigrants get treated better than many of Americans’ veterans and that the press is twisting recent comments he made about Sen. John McCain of Arizona.
Mr. Trump said on NBC’s “Today” program that the Department of Veterans Affairs is a “scandalous, corrupt organization,” and the media “has done a false number, as usual.”
 Host Matt Lauer read Mr. Trump’s quote to him and asked him if he would say it to Mr. McCain’s face. Over the weekend, Mr. Trump had said Mr. McCain, a prisoner of war for more than five years in Vietnam, is a war hero because “he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured, OK?”


“Excuse me, Matt, because you’re the media and you do the same thing,” Mr. Trump told Mr. Lauer. “The next sentence was, ‘He is a war hero.’ I said that. But they never want to play it. And you don’t want to play it.”
