Buckle up Trump supporters...
Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, said his magazine's story about Trump calling Americans who died in battle "losers" and "suckers," was just the tip of the iceberg.
"I would fully expect more reporting to come out about this and more confirmation and new pieces of information in the coming days and weeks," Goldberg told CNN's Chief Media Correspondent Brian Stelter on "Reliable Sources" Sunday. "We have a responsibility and we're going to do it regardless of what he says."
The magazine received backlash -- from Trump and many others -- for attributing the information to four anonymous sources. CNN has confirmed several aspects of The Atlantic's reporting, also with sources who chose to remain anonymous.
But Goldberg said that's how the media is able to do its job of uncovering stories that take place behind closed doors.

I believe the guy.
I'm sure he and the rest of the Trump hating media have entire notebooks full of made up nonsense and they'll be continuously releasing the stuff up until election day. (All of it attributed to unnamed sources, of course.)
Trump lies to discredit what he believes are lies, and his supporters believe him.This is an interesting find regarding Trump. Did President Trump make up the story or is it a sign of mental decline?
"Trump said: “I called home, I spoke to my wife and I said, ‘I hate this. I came here to go to that ceremony.’ And to the one that was the following day, which I did go to. I said I feel terribly. And that was the end of it.”
But Melania Trump was not at “home” — she was on the trip with the president and was also scheduled to visit the cemetery.
Fact check: Trump denies disrespect of soldiers
Trump lies to discredit what he believes are lies, and his supporters believe him.
It is cultist culture 101.

I agree. He has done it so much over his term that is so easy to pick out the lies.
I doubt I get much from the Trump supporters on this. Maybe, he has another "wife" that we don't know about and that is who he called.:lamo

PJ Media?Here's How We Know The Atlantic's Hit Piece on Trump Is Pure Fiction
The Atlantic's Hit Piece on Trump is False, Here's Why
A report published Thursday by The Atlantic cited anonymous sources claiming that President Donald Trump didn’t want to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018 because the troops there who died in battle were “losers” and “suckers. The media has largely reported on this story as though it were true or at least likely to be true.
“The Atlantic Magazine is dying, like most magazines, so they make up a fake story in order to gain some relevance,” Trump tweeted on Friday. “Story already refuted, but this is what we are up against. Just like the Fake Dossier. You fight and fight, and then people realize it was a total fraud!”
Even CNN’s Brian Stelter seemed to acknowledge that the claims of anonymous sources aren’t as convincing. (you know it's BAD when Stelter questions the story.)
“But it is also incumbent on the sources, on the people that are talking to [Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey] Goldberg, on the people that are talking to other outlets — the president’s denying it explicitly, so it’s put up or shut up time,” Stelter said. “Why aren’t these people coming forward and putting their names to these quotes?”
Perhaps because it’s a lot easier to lie when your name and reputation aren’t on the line. But there are at least five witnesses who have gone on the record disputing the allegations made in The Atlantic.
PJ Media?
Was OAN busy with a different news story?

So "Pajamas Media" is what we are using to get clarification on this?Go play some where else... Maybe the basement!
The story from the Atlantic was already confirmed by literally dozens of other publications.They are much more credible than The Atlantic! But you know that.... :lamoeace

I was with POTUS in France, with Sarah, and have been at his side throughout it all. Complete lies by “anonymous sources” that were “dropped” just as he begins to campaign (and surge). A disgraceful attempt to smear POTUS, 60 days before the Presidential Election! Disgusting!! https://twitter.com/sarahhuckabee/status/1301702348071460864

I'm surprised that this hasn't gotten more play?
^^ Only thing embarrassing is this post. ^^ Just more Trump:lamo hate!
Guys, guys, this twit from some unknown goofball defending the president ignores the lies Trump told to discredit what he believes was a lie!Again, this is 100% false. I was next to @POTUS the whole day! The President was greatly disappointed when told we couldn’t fly there. He was incredibly eager to honor our Fallen Heroes. https://twitter.com/jeffreygoldberg/status/1301634784448438272
