Given how trump pro-actively attacked John Kelly today, one has to assume the trump-Kelly graveside comments were accurate and truthful, and that Kelly is one of the four+ sources for this article.

Attacking Kelly was a very stupid move, with extra stupid-sauce added.

Silent Kelly will surface, and speak.

 

Well, one thing has been settled: there has been speculation about what role the military will play if it comes to the point where DT refuses to leave when his time is up.  "We are here to throw your a__ out, sir."

Oh but it is exactly that. Within hours of it being published Joe Biden had high production value political ads running on social media and was in front of crowds, maskless, talking about it and major leftwing politicians doing the same. 
 

It was a coordinated hit piece. Nothing more. 

 

It is much, much, much more. The fact that you are oblvious to that fact says so much.

Agreed.

 

Panic mode is kicking in.

 

It's all defensive and reflexive, and he can't help himself.

 

And has no self-awareness about how guilty such an attack makes him look.

 

 

Again, people (silent majority) defended nixon even as he walked to Marine One for the final time. It's hard for people to acknowledge they made a huge mistake. And the bigger the mistake the more resistant people are to acknowledge the truth.

Bold strategy.

Interesting timing.  Election in a matter of weeks.  ????

So trump talking chit gives the media a free pass to talk chit?

Likewise post #95. Trump is trying to win the election by perpetrating irrational and unsubstantiated fear amongst the more gullible elements of the population, ie his base.

So you admit Trump was lying?

How can they be credible when nobody has provided any supporting evidence and no one has the nuts to put their face to the claims. 
 

Nevermind all the people who were present who have come out and that it was never said. People who did put their faces to their claims. 
 

People can invoke McCain if they like, Trump and McCain had a long history that predates his presidency by many years and is in no way proof that trump called troops “suckers” and “losers” 

Trump supporter suddenly thinks ‘Credibility’ is on his side.

I mean, the obvious rebuttal would be to state categorically that the president would never say such a thing, and that it is totally out of character.

 

Case closed.

 

But no. The primary defense seems to be to attack the reporting and sources.

 

Weird.

The timing of the election? 

 

Pretty sure that's always the same, first Tuesday after Nov. 1.

 

Not sure what you are implying?

 

That the election date should be changed? Or that Russia should be listening? Or that there should be some arbitrary embargo on the news?

 

Anyway you go it's just weird to claim a "timing" defense? Deflection score: 95 (out of 100). Top marks sir.

Because US Troops risk their lives every single day of each year, while there's one date on Trump's agenda 

It's crucial they know who is the one and only who makes life & death decisions.

with 59 days to go till the election the only truth i see coming out of America is...

Ok to say retard is it?

 

What about hypocrisy - is that acceptable?

 

Pathetic

 

Fox News yes that Fox News has now confirmed numerous key parts of the well researched Atlantic Magazine article.

 

Of course the hard core loyalists about 35 percent of the country will never believe it.

 

But it's clearly true.

 

Can he still win? Probably if he motivates all of that base to vote. But how likely is that?

 

I will add for those not familiar with the Atlantic Magazine it happens to be my favorite source for in depth coverage of this disastrous presidency. The Washington Post too of course. 

 

You are allowed a few free read articles a month on the Atlantic.

Totally off-topic of course, but that meme is stoopid.

 

Looks like a horse, we're donkeys, of course. Wilburrrrrr.

 

Why way back in Eighteen and Seventy-Nine....

 

 

   Of course he said it--sounds exactly like him and we all know his favorite word is 'loser'.  He speaks 'disparagingly' of just about everybody but himself.  

President likely to be elected Joe Biden shows some authentic passion in his response.

Trumps track record when caught, claim it is fake news and lie, works too. Amazing

Trump referred to the 1,800 Marines who died at the pivotal Battle of Belleau Wood as "suckers." The Associated Press later confirmed the report.
 

 

Confirmed by Fox News correspondant Jennifer Grifen (?) as reported by AP, Atlantic, Washington Post. Further repeated on several other occasions.

Are you kidding me....you KNOW what he said about John McCain, that is ABSOLUTELY on the record. You are defending a man that is capable of calling other countries "Sh*t Hole countries", war heroes "Losers" and uncountable slang against females that stand up to him. You need to grow a set, find the courage to have some character and discover the intestinal fortitude to acknowledge finally that you are backing the wrong f'ing horse in Donald Trump. 

And  now when reminded of his many  nasty comments about  McCain he claims to have respected him !

So much so he  did  not attend his funeral ?

Although I can understand that he had positioned himself in such a way that if he had attended he would have gagged in the attempt to show even a single speck of respect !

Anybody who looked into McCain's life story could have any respect for that warmongering liar.

45 is bad. Objectively bad. Just look at his failed response to the pandemic. That's more than enough to prove how bad he is. 

 

No of course Biden is not any kind of savior but he's the one in place to replace toxic 45 and that ain't chopped liver.

This is just who Trump is. A man who was terrified, and absolutely refused to serve his nation, with five deferments, now openly disparages those who do. Why? An extreme lack of self esteem, made worse by those brave men and women who did serve their nation. There is a public record of him disparaging John McCain, who was a hero. Also, the gold star parents of the soldier who lost his life. And many others. So, it is not a stretch to imagine he would mock the "great generation", and the many who lost their lives to make sure we could remain free of tyranny. He simply represents the worst in all of us. and has a stunningly black and malicious heart. He must be stopped. He must be ousted, and he WILL lose the election. We will make it so!

To be fair he understandably was not welcome at that funeral.
