Vietnamese Restaurant Erupts in Raucous Cheers When Trump Walks In: ‘We Need You!’
Former President Donald Trump garnered a warm reception during his visit to Truong Tien Vietnamese Restaurant in Falls Church, Virginia, on a Monday. Accompanied by U.S. Senate candidate Hung Cao, a Navy veteran running against incumbent Democrat Tim Kaine, Trump was cheered and applauded by attendees, who even chanted “USA! USA! USA!” in response to his remarks.
During the visit, Trump expressed his appreciation for the support he receives from the Vietnamese community, remarking, “Somehow, I don’t know what it is – you’ll have to explain it – the Vietnamese community loves me, and I love them.” He showed confidence in both his and Cao’s chances of winning in Virginia, referring to Cao’s name as one that should help him get elected.
Earlier in the day, Trump and Cao honored the memory of 13 U.S. service members killed during the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan by laying a wreath at Arlington National Cemetery. The event highlighted the ongoing connection Trump appears to have with Latino and Vietnamese communities, especially those who share sentiments related to freedom.
After addressing the crowd, Trump signed autographs while attendees voiced their support for his future endeavors. Cao, who is also advocating for conservative values, emphasized the need for love over hate as the upcoming elections approached.
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.
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!”
“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.”
The GOP presidential nominee expressed confidence that both he and Cao can win Virginia.
“We’re looking to win the state,” Trump said, “which is not necessarily good for Republicans, but I’m not an average Republican, and neither are you.”
Cao predicted that the people of Virginia would elect him the first Vietnamese U.S. senator.
As the two finished speaking, a patron yelled, “Make America great again!”
Trump could be seen signing autographs afterward, with one telling him, “We will fight for you, sir.” Another called out, “We need you for the next four years.”

The former president asked some of the patrons if they still loved their native Vietnam, and there were replies that they did, but not the communists running it.
Cao’s speech to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee last month was well received.

“In November, the left will vote for the hatred of one man,” he said. “We will vote for love: love of God, love of family, and love for the greatest nation on earth.”
In 2020, Trump did well with Latinos in Florida, particularly from nations with communist governments like Cuba and Venezuela.

An NBC News exit poll found 55 percent of Cuban-Americans in Florida voted for Trump, with 48 percent of Latinos overall supporting him in the state.
People from Vietnam also appear to appreciate the 45th president’s stand for freedom.
