Non-arguments spell loser for you. Get lost. You are boring and uninformed as always.
That must make you a double loser then, because you posted no argument, just DNC talking points. Tomorrow they'll teach you to squawk some other lie.

Trump Reportedly Referred To American War Dead As ‘Losers’ And ‘Suckers’
The president’s controversial remarks from 2018 were confirmed by multiple outlets, including Fox News.

President Donald Trump, who has been criticized in the past for making disparaging remarks about veterans and military families, reportedly referred to American service members who died in World War I as “losers” and “suckers” in conversations with his staff.
The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg, citing multiple anonymous sources who had firsthand knowledge of the conversations, reported Thursday on the president’s comments.
According to Goldberg, Trump uttered the belittling remarks about the American war dead while in France in 2018.

During that trip, the president nixed a planned visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery ― a World War I cemetery in Belleau, France, near the site of the Battle of Belleau Wood. Trump blamed rain for the cancellation at the time.
Goldberg said, however, that Trump had actually “rejected the idea of the visit because he feared his hair would become disheveled in the rain, and because he did not believe it important to honor American war dead.”
Goldberg added:

In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning of the scheduled visit, Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed.
Goldberg said later in the article that Trump had also referred separately to John McCain, the late senator and war veteran, as a “fucking loser.”

Trump has previously been criticized for denigrating McCain, who was held for 5½ years as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.
“He’s not a war hero,” Trump said in 2015 of McCain. “I like people who weren’t captured.”
Associated Press reporter James LaPorta later corroborated Goldberg’s article, saying a senior Defense Department official had confirmed the information.

Trump can shit in a hat and they'd wear it
For those who served and are active, he has helped them. That is all you have to know. Progs and their Alinsky preaching while giving the military in this case worn out equipment and massively reduced budgets is par for the course. We can live with some cities nuked. Really. It will be funny.
Gave money earmarked for military to build his fn bs wall?

There they go again. The moron thinks that because Fox news parroted the same fake shit it gives his squawking some legitimacy. :cuckoo:

Trump: Americans Who Died in War Are ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers’

This would fall perfectly inline with what he said about McCain. So if kneeling is disrespectful, what is this?
I guess you haven't heard Trump paid hookers to go piss on all graves of dead soldiers pass it on
No didn't hear that but did hear THE FAILING NY TIMES is up FOUR HUNDRED % under Mark Thomson What a great business man the AH trump is
fiction stories usually do sell in a market that people are searching for fantasy
Trump saying what he said can be backed up by multiple sources.
ok show those sources
If this is anything like all the rest of those un named sources attacks against him don't bother because you have nothing
The Atlantic, the Associated Press, and the Washington Post, are all backing the story; Did Trump call US war dead "losers" and "suckers"? The controversy, explained.

But two items deserve further mention here.


First, the Atlantic’s sources for those scenes are “four people with firsthand knowledge of the discussion that day.” It’s unclear from that attribution whether they actually heard Trump say those comments directly, or if they heard about his remarks from someone who did.

That lack of specificity may be to protect the sources who spoke on the condition of anonymity. After all, if Goldberg wrote “according to four people to whom Trump made those remarks,” then it’d be pretty easy for the administration to identify those people. Plus, without not-for-attribution reporting, some misdeeds or scandals wouldn’t come to light for fear of retribution. Still, not knowing exactly who heard what — with none of the sources on the record — muddies the picture.

Second, and more importantly, there’s evidence to suggest Trump’s decision not to travel to the cemetery had nothing to do with his hair.

Documents obtained by BuzzFeed News’s Jason Leopold via the Freedom of Information Act seem to show the US Navy canceled Trump’s helicopter ride to the cemetery due to the bad weather. An email obtained by the Washington Examiner on Thursday night, relayed to the outlet by an unnamed White House official with the sender’s and receiver’s names redacted, appeared to confirm a “BAD [weather] call” had been made.

Actually, Marine One is one of the more advanced helicopters that Sikorsky makes, and it is constantly being upgraded. Sorry, but a little bad weather isn't enough to ground Marine One.

So, you have defined what "BAD WEATHER" is? Is my assumption correct?
Bad Weather IS rain. Bad Weather is not the 45 mile an hour gusts? We don't know what the weather was,
so please don't try and articulate the weather that they had. The call was made and not by Trump, perhaps we should just leave it at that.
 
Gave money earmarked for military to build his fn bs wall?
Since when is the Army Corps of Engineers not military? You do know that Trump is Commander In Chief of our Military don't you? Oh yeah, "orange man bad" almost forgot. :cuckoo:

Big deal. They have ALL been shown to publish sheer bullshit. They have lost all credibility so what they "report" without verifiable sources is immaterial.
Remember that time we saw biden pissing on the grave of dead soldiers?






Yup, and kamala was spitting on them too. Saw it with my own eyes!
didn't she wipe her shit covered underwear on the headstones?
Lies are all the Right have. Lol! This is what they are reduced to. Actually that's what they always do. Make shit up. Ha liar, want to take a stab at proving your claims?







Pot, meet fucking KETTLE!
What is there about Trumps past or present that leads you to believe anything he says?







The fact that he has done everything he said he would while running for president. He is the ONLY candidate who has ever delivered on the majority of what he promised to do.
Lol! He hasn't delivered on anything. No new health plan, Mexico didn't pay for the wall, he skyrocketed the debt, he said Covid was a hoax, and there are 187,000 dead, the GDP has gone no where, Trump said he was bringing back coal and that didn't happen, and on and on. He didn't do shit. What alternate universe are you living in?







Ahhhh, you little imbecile you! He has reformed the VA. He has prevented illegal caravans from coming in and yes, the net result is Mexico is paying for that. It is THEIR troops on THEIR southern border that are preventing the swarms of illegals from coming in. All in spite of the Dems fighting against him at every turn. No, little chinese stooge. Trump has done more for the middle class than any president since Reagan.

Sucks to be you.

No go suck Xi's cock.
Lol! Reformed how? By paying back money he owed to the VA? LOl! Judge Says Trump Must Pay $2 Million Over Misuse Of Foundation Funds

Swarms of illegals coming in? You better hope he lets those swarms in. They're feeding your sorry ass.





Allowing veterans to use doctors close to them and the government pays for it. Saving, in many cases, hours of travel to go see a doctor. Providing for CONSEQUENCES for incompetent providers so there is a way to get rid of them. Since Trump took over the VA has seen its approval among veterans increase every year. It fell every year under obummer. Now go suck Xi's cock. He's waiting.
When you're caught you're caught. Trump tried to steal from it and had to ay it back. Trump has zero credibility.
