A nameless anonymous source said he was told someone heard Trump call prisoners of war and the veterans "suckers and losers".

We later found out that the anonymous source was nothing and no one. 22 witnesses who were there, including foreign leaders, all claimed they did not hear the President say that.

The writer of the article made it up completely. It was later discovered he was an avid fan of the Godfather and used a quote from the movies and attributed it to Trump.

It was a complete and total lie.

It was an Atlantic Article by their chief editor who also hates Trump.

Also, of course, as usual, video surfaced shortly afterwards of joePedo actually doing it.

He's talking about the lie that Trump called WW1 vets losers and suckers. Trump was talking about current generals who want to start new wars.

Yup.

I thought I remembered him saying he talked bad about some current generals who wanted constant war.

CNN pushed that false accustion during the campaign, he would have said veterans were losers or something which was debunked.

A made-up story from the manwhore Bob Woodward 18 months ago. The writer pushing it was cribbing directly from Mario Puzo books (I shit you not)

Who was widely known for ratting out his fellow servicemen at the Hanoi Hilton and was personally responsible for the deadliest fire in the history of the U.S. Navy: https://www.eastonspectator.com/2018/08/26/navy-releases-mccains-records-mccain-was-personally-responsible-for-the-deadliest-fire-in-the-history-of-the-us-navy/

Logical argumentation 101 says you can't prove a negative. It's not up to you to prove he didn't say that, it's up to him to give you a full, in context quote, with source.

Anonymous sources that Trump talked shit about WW1 shoulders while he was in France a couple years ago. Low informed voters is the end of the country with the MSM in the pocket of the establishment

Your friend is a dupe. Telling him to stop swallowing every piece of fake news coming out of the media.

Can your friend google ? If so he should be able to find out that every witness in the room where this fake quote was supposedly said has denied it - and no witnesses have backed it up.

I just verified your point.

search terms : "witnesses debunk trump story that military are losers"

In google - almost all the stories on the first page of results are bullshit lefty propaganda.

In ddg, most of the hits are debunk stories.

An article in The Atlantic, published a month before the election, that has been denied by over 20 actual witnesses.

If he cannot point to where it is, how can there be any weight to it?

The ONLY thing in recent memory was about john mcstain when he said that mc cain wasnt a hero (hes not) and that trump prefers heros that didnt get shot down and teken pow or something along those lines.

The point was..that mccain ratted out fellow pows resulting in their punishment and him getting favored treatment...as well as mc cains "incident" in which his narcistic assholery caused live ordinance to detonate on ship deck killing many of the crew...for which he got off scott free because of his daddy

Probably when Trump hit McCain early on in the 2016 campaign. I seem to remember that it raised a few eyebrows at the time, but it put the spotlight on songbird's past; which is why McCain did everything he could to get at Trump.

The Atlantic magazine was purchased by a rabid anti-Trumper who vowed to do as much damage as possible to him. They printed an article from an anonymous source saying that Trump called veterans suckers and losers at a particular event. Literally everyone else at the event says it never happened. Trump has been and alawys will be wonderful to vets.

Some anonymous person said Trump said veterans were losers IIRC, I think the news said that and alluded to Trump saying vets who were killed were losers.

Show your friend the Biden clip calling a room full of military stupid bastards

People don't believe in things because it is true (or false), they believe things because it is the socially popular thing to do.

I don't know; I am a Veteran and I Love me some Trump for a WHOLE LOT of reason. But I do know a Vet who don't like Trump? Go figure I don't get it.

An example of this would be when Megan Kelly said President Trump calls women fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals. His reply...Only Rosie Odonnell. So, if he talks shit about McCain who set him up with the Russia collusion crap the media says he doesn't like Veterans.

It was a lie that he called declined visiting a cemetery for soldiers that died in war because they were "losers", only he never said it. The trip to the cemetery was canceled due to weather, if I recall correctly.

News source came out and said Trump called Veterans "losers" or something of the sort.

Everyone in the room that was there at the time this was supposedly said, said this did not happen, and the reporter who wrote the story was forced to retract it.

Fake news as usual, the retraction was small, and never reported on because it did not fit the narrative.

He gave the military more money than they know what to do with. Obama decimated the military. I had many friends who were let go months away from full retirement. McCain was a POS. Never shut up about being a POW his entire life. I respect POW's but it's not a badge of phucking honor that he proclaimed. If everyone got captured all the time then we don't have a military.
