Trump Endorses Hung Cao at Virginia Restaurant

Former President Donald Trump visited Truong Tien Vietnamese Restaurant in Falls Church, Virginia, aiming to court Vietnamese American voters ahead of the November Senate elections. This surprise visit, which followed a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington Cemetery, included an endorsement for Senate candidate Hung Cao, a Vietnamese refugee and retired Navy captain. Trump's presence significantly boosted the restaurant's sales by 300%, and he expressed his affection for the Vietnamese community, stating, 'Somehow, I don’t know what it is... the Vietnamese community loves me, and I love them.' During his visit, he sampled traditional dishes and praised both Cao's candidacy and the Vietnamese culture. The event was characterized by a warm reception from the Vietnamese patrons, who expressed strong support for Trump and Cao. Trump's outreach reflects his strategy to secure key demographic votes in battleground states like Virginia.
