Trump, in Veterans Day Remarks, Hails Recent Deaths of IS Leaders

Steve Herman

   WHITE HOUSE - As the first sitting U.S. president to attend New York
   City's Veterans Day parade and lay a wreath at the Eternal Light
   Memorial, Donald Trump paid tribute to warriors in attendance dating
   back to World War II.

   "We pledge to always honor our veterans," said Trump on Monday morning
   at the open of the 100th annual parade. "You are America's greatest
   living heroes and we will cherish you now, always and forever."

   Trump also noted one of the recent highlights of his administration,
   which is being overshadowed by an impeachment inquiry against him in
   the Democrat-majority House.

   Referencing last month's raid by U.S. special forces against the leader
   of the Islamic State group, Trump said, "Al-Baghdadi is dead. His
   second-in-command is dead and we have our eyes on No. 3. His reign of
   terror is over and our enemies are running very, very scared."
