The secretary of veterans affairs, Bob McDonald, refused to apologize for comparing VA wait times to Disneyland wait times earlier today on MSNBC.

"Wait times are important but it is not the only measure of veterans experience. That's what veterans are telling us. We talked to a lot of veterans. It is important and if I were misunderstood or said the wrong thing, I am glad i have to correct it," said McDonald.

I suppose wait time isnt a big deal unless youre life depends on it...then it is.

[V_TWIN]

Apologize!? Ha, wait for the double down.

[rockinqsranch]

No apology needed actually. Just resign.

Good for him.Let him wait in line for an unemployment check

[originalbuckeye]

Classless, arrogant arse! Well, you have to hand it to all those in this Admin.....they sure have cut this country to the bone. And with no accountability from the DO(in)J. I am embarrassed and saddened to watch them destroy what was a great country. Let's MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! (I wasn't a Trumpster, but I am now!)

A line at the doctor is NOT Disneyland. A delay can mean worse health or death. What a MORON!

[johniegrad]

Fire him ... Now!

[Sasparilla]

Typical Obama appointee.

[lee martell]

I think he wants out of that job. He was never prepared for it in the first place. This is what otherwise smart people do when they wish to be removed from what they see as a hopeless project.

to him veterans are just a bunch of drawfs

[lee martell]

It wasn’t till he made that statement, that I realized how much this guy looks like a cartoon character. Something between Alfred E. Newman and Elmer Fudd.

Bob McDonald’s impeachment is at hand?

[WilliamCooper1]

Nothing will happen. Obama is a lame duck. He has more “flexibility” to really let us know how much he hates the military and white straight male.

[austinaero]

Remember, McDonald is the guy who lied about the extent of his military service...and yet he is still head of the VA!
