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’d 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.
Associated Press reporter James LaPorta later corroborated Goldberg’s article, saying a senior Defense Department official had confirmed the information.
The president's controversial remarks from 2018 were confirmed by multiple outlets, including Fox News.

So sad to have a president refer to soldiers who sacrificed their lives as "losers" and "suckers". I am deeply offended.
