There are ‘multiple incidents’ of inaccurate statements: Sen. Tom Cotton

MOMENT ON CNN ON FRIDAY NIGHT. JOINING ME NOW ARKANSAS SENATOR TOM COTTON. SENATOR, YOU SERVED IN IRAQ AND IN AFGHANISTAN. IS THIS JUST A SIMPLE CASE OF ON ONE OCCASION MISSPEAKING THAT YOU CARRIED OUT A WEAPON OF WAR INTO WAR? THAT'S EASY TO DO, RIGHT, SENATOR? >> WELL, NO, LAURA EVEN THE CAMPAIGN ADMITS IT WAS MUCH MORE THAN ONE INSTANCE OF MISSPEAKING AND NOW IT'S NOT YOU, IT'S NOT ME, OR ANY OTHER REPUBLICAN. IT'S TIM WALZ IS BATTALION COMMANDER. BATTALION SERGEANT MAJOR. EVEN A CHAPLAIN IN THE BATTALION. YOU KNOW, OF COURSE, WE ALL RESPECT TIM WALZ FOR HIS SERVICE AND FOR THE SERVICE OF ALL VETERANS. BUT, THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE INSTANCES OF INACCURATE OR INCONSISTENT STATEMENTS BY TIM WALZ OR BY THE CAMPAIGN AND I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DESERVE ANSWERS FROM TIM WALZ. YET, LIKE KAMALA HARRIS. HE REFUSES TO COME OUT AND DO AN INTERVIEW OR EVEN ANSWER A FEW QUESTIONS PLANE SIDE AS IS HE JETTING AROUND THE COUNTRY. APPARENTLY THAT'S THE MODE OF OPERATING FOR THIS CAMPAIGN. THEY THINK THERE ARE FEWER THAN 100 DAYS UNTIL THE ELECTION AND THEY CAN REFUSE TO SPEAK TO THE MEDIA AND THEREFORE SPEAK TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT ANYTHING IN THEIR PAST OR MAYBE MORE IMPORTANTLY WHAT THEY HAVE IN STORE FOR AMERICA'S FUTURE. >> Laura: WELL, SENATOR, WATCH HOW NANCY PELOSI INTRODUCED THEN FRESHMAN CONGRESSMAN TIM WALZ BACK IN 2007. >> WE WILL HEAR FROM CONGRESSMAN -- WELL COMMAND SERGEANT MAJOR. [LAUGHTER] TIM WALZ. I WANT HIM TO KNOW HOW MUCH WE ALL APPRECIATE HIS SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY. WHETHER IT'S IN THE CLASSROOM OR ON THE BATTLEFIELD. CONGRESSMAN TIM MURTHY -- EXCUSE ME, CONGRESSMAN TIM WALZ OF MINNESOTA. >> SENATOR, HE CORRECTED PELOSI ON HIS NAME NOT ABOUT HIS RANK THAT HE FOUGHT IN THE BATTLEFIELD. SIMILAR THING IS WHEN HE WAS ON C-SPAN, SAME KIND OF DEAL. I THINK HE WAS INTRODUCED AS A RETIRED COMMAND SERGEANT MAJOR. THAT'S A BIG DEAL TO RETIRE AS COMMAND SERGEANT MAJOR. I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT. THAT'S A HUGE DEAL. NOT THAT ALL SERVICE AS YOU SAID ISN'T WONDERFUL. BUT THERE IS SOMETHING VERY WEIRD ABOUT THIS. IT'S WEIRD. THEY SAY TRUMP AND VANCE ARE WEIRD? THIS IS WEIRD. >> YEAH. I AGREE. IT SEEMS LIKE EVERY DAY THERE IS FOUR OR FIVE MORE OF THESE VIDEOS THAT COME OUT WITH TIM WALZ INACCURATELY OR INCONSISTENTLY DESCRIBING HIS SERVICE SAYING HE SERVED IN THE WAR ZONE OR RETIRED AS A COMMAND SERGEANT MAJOR WHEN HE DIDN'T. THAT HE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE DEPLOYMENT TO IRAQ FOR HIS UNIT HE RETIRED. THAT'S WHY HE OWES THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ANSWERS. IT'S BEEN MORE THAN A WEEK SINCE HE WAS NOMINATED. J.D. VANCE AND THE PRESIDENT SAT DOWN WITHIN A WEEK PRESIDENT TRUMP CHOOSING J.D. VANCE THEY HAD FREE RANGING INTERVIEW. THAT'S WHAT KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ NEED TO BE. AGAIN, NOT JUST ABOUT TIM WALZ'S MILITARY SERVICE BUT ABOUT HIS STRANGE 35-YEAR HISTORY WITH CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY. AND ONCE AGAIN, MOST IMPORTANTLY, ABOUT WHAT THEY PLAN TO DO FOR THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY. BECAUSE, AGAIN, THE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN'S MODE OF OPERATING IS HIDING KAMALA HARRIS OUT FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, HOPING THEY CAN RUN OUT THE CLOCK ON THIS ELECTION. >> Laura: SENATOR, YOU OBVIOUSLY FORGOT WHAT THEY'RE CALLING IT IS A NATIONAL DANCE PARTY. WE CALL DID THE DANCE PARTY OF DECLINE. AS THE COUNTRY DECLINES THEY ARE HAVING A NATIONAL DANCE PARTY. THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT US ALL TO BASK I
