Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump defended a three-year-old tweet criticizing the integration of women into the United States military during the Commander in Chief Forum Wednesday night.
The issue cropped up when a retired Marine asked him what he could to do curb sexual assault in the military, noting that his daughter was interested in joining but declined due to the issue. Trump pointed to the need to have a court system within the military and the lack of prosecution to those offenders.
