Former President Donald Trump received a rowdy reception when he walked into a Vietnamese restaurant in northern Virginia on Monday.
The 45th president visited the Truong Tien Vietnamese Restaurant in Falls Church, Virginia, along with Virginia U.S. Senate candidate Hung Cao. The Naval Academy graduate and combat veteran is running to replace incumbent Democrat Sen. Tim Kaine.
“In Florida, we go down and we have large groups of people, always dressed perfectly, with the red and the silver. I say, ‘You’re the most beautiful dressers I’ve ever seen,'” he added.
Trump then turned to the senate candidate and said, “I love his name — Hung Cao. I love that name, and that name alone should get you elected.”
Cao earlier in the day had been with Trump when the 45th president laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery in memory of the 13 service members killed by a suicide bomb attack at Abbey Gate in Kabul, Afghanistan, during the Biden’s administration chaotic withdrawal of American forces.
Cao was at Trump’s side when he entered Truong Tien Vietnamese Restaurant and the room broke out in cheers and applause.
“Somehow, I don’t know what it is — you’ll have to explain it — the Vietnamese community loves me, and I love them,” Trump said, causing the people in the room to cheer even louder and break out into a chant of “USA! USA! USA!”

He is a great candidate and patriot. Most especially compared to the vile dweeb he is running against.
I was just thinking about making a lame joke about his name, and then I decided not to... Yeah. No.
“Asian American” is a ridiculous category.
It is like saying peaches, pears, plums, apricots, grapes, mangos are “fruits”.
While a legitimate use of language it is totally useless data.
WOW
I'm sure he's heard it all before, but this race is critically important.
So we’re not allowed to think about jokes because politics exists?
Millions of people from Vietnam and the U.S. thank you for your service, as do I.
The colors of the Communist Vietnamese flag (red and yellow) are the same.
