[W:720, 995]Trump: Americans Who Died in War Are ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers’

Oh, he is. Unfortunately, you folks only want to take Trump out, and not make America great.

Worst unemployment in my lifetime. Thousands dead. Economy in shambles. Rioting in the streets.


When do we get to the great part? Lol

America was great before Donald Trump and will be much better off when he's gone. When the Majority of Americans have a President they want.
 
The Dems need to hammer Trumps cowardice opinion of our military through the floor. So far they don't appear to be playing hard ball in their adds. They should be crushing him for the long list of absurd things he has said and hit him even harder for his five deferments, his secret taxes, his love of Putin and disdain for our intelligence agencies, his sexist and racist history, his high school grades and other scandals, his mob connections in building some of his buildings, his number of weekends golfing while he criticized Obama for his golfing, his reducing our troops in Germany, his blackmailing the Ukraine and the number of pending law suits against him.
 
John Bolton who's obviously no fan of Trump said this is absolutely false. Others who were there also said this never happened.
 
You are so right. We should follow the examples of convervative states like Mississippi and Louisiana. They seem to excel in education, health care, and quality of life, right? What do you think they are doing right?

And yet people in the south seem generally happier
 
Yeah, this current claim is faaaarrrr from proven and even people that don’t like him say they never heard him say anything like that. Trump, no doubt, brings a lot of **** on himself but I believe this is made up.

You believe it is made up because.........................

I believe it is true because just like when he mocked the fallen soldiers family, McCain for his service (not their personal dislike of each other) and GHWB military service. Or when he didn't want amputees in the parade. He has **** all over military generals and claimed he knows more about tactics and warfare than they do. This list goes on. This isn't a single isolated incident from a single source. These are multiple accounts, some on camera, and other told by former staff. People who were there, who heard it. And maybe you can dismiss one or so claiming disgruntled ex staffer, but we've these reports from dozens. Somewhere around 40 or so sources, who after leaving this administration have spoken out against Trump. And every single time it is dismissed by you people.

To believe that Trump is pro military, or pro law enforcement a person would have to be a brainwashed moron. Trump has a long history of disrespect for the military and law enforcement. He stands by them as long as he believes they unquestionably stand by him. Basically he expects them to act like you. I am personally glad our military isn't expected to blindly follow any man and instead they are loyal to our country. You people selling out conservative beliefs and turning your back on America because of loyalty to a slum lord and politician is painful ignorant and disgusting.
 
Trump supporters = Trump apologist

The deplorables. What a bunch of losers

...at this point, its just a poor reflection on them: not only on their pathetic judgement of character, but I am starting to wonder if we should just consider Trump supporters people with decency. I am ok with someone that calls out Trumps behavior (specifically, not some lame general statement), but can rationalize his political positions. But, the problem is that Trump supporters try to defend Trump's character, and in that futile exercise they reveal their lack of character.
 
John Bolton who's obviously no fan of Trump said this is absolutely false. Others who were there also said this never happened.

I mean, you could sit here and lie and hope that no one ever checks the crap you say, but I should warn you. Some of the people on this forum have access to the internet. So a quick google search has Bolton's response. Let's see what he said.


John Bolton Says Trump's Remarks on Military Are Despicable - Bloomberg

“These comments are despicable. If he made them, they are despicable,” Bolton said in a Bloomberg Radio interview on Friday.

But Bolton, who published a book earlier this year that was heavily critical of his former boss, said the alleged remarks sounded accurate.

“I have not heard anybody say, ‘Oh, that doesn’t sound like the Donald Trump I know,’” Bolton said in the interview. Bolton said the remarks may have stemmed from Trump’s skepticism of U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“He was prone to say from time to time: ‘What did they get out of it? What was the worth of the war in Iraq and the war in Afghanistan?’” Bolton said. “That is a kind of insensitivity that Trump does have, there’s no doubt about it.”

“I didn’t hear him say those things,” he said, adding later he probably would have included the remarks in his book if he had. “Now, did he say those things to other people later in the day? It’s certainly possible.”

Asked whether Trump has high regard for the military, Bolton said, “I don’t think he really holds anybody in high regard except his family.”

It is fascinating how Trumpsters believe people here on this site are like the Fox audience, Fox's audience never ever think for themselves, they just blindly take the Fox talking heads for the word and never question what they hear. People on this site know how to think and use the internet..

No he didn't. Or give me the link. The passage in his book doesn't mention him calling the casualties suckers and losers--that's not the same as saying he never said it.

Oh. Update. Looks my analysis of your post was pretty spot on:

Ownage in its distilled form.
 
You have some way of proving that, or is that just how you feel things should be?

Among states with the lowest suicide rates: California, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and the lowest of all...New York. (2019 stats)
 
Maybe the military has turned on Trump because of things like this:

Navy SEAL slams Trump for pardoning Eddie Gallagher: 'Shooting civilians and executing prisoners shouldn't be' political

Or maybe other things like... his abandonment of allies in Syria (sorry, Kurds) and Germany or his friendships with Vladimir Putin (what Russian bounties on U.S. troops?), Kim Jong Un or Mohammed bin Salman. Maybe it’s his disparagement of John McCain and Gold Star families. Maybe it’s his use of the military for parades and spectacles the way dictators do. Maybe it’s his siphoning of military funds for pet projects such as the border wall. Maybe it’s his attempt to extend racial conflict to military bases through his support of Confederate icons.

Look John Bolton was asked about this. He said that Trump never said that. Other people who were there who are no fans of Trump also said that he never said this.

I know, your standard response is "link".

Dude just provided a link that disproves your assertion.
 
Trump and Charlie Sheen are in the same club ----- lots of bragging about WINNING but spectacularly crashing before our eye in a fiery disaster.

Trump’s campaign is fueled by tiger blood

No. Sorry. You put in an empty suit who wanted to “fundamentally change” the United States, so your claim that America was already great failed. THAT is why we now have Trump.
Now you offer up a 47 year veteran of Washington who clearly is no better than the earlier empty suit and only represents an extension of the malaise he left us in.
So , no.

It's really just that you hate America. We know.

Fascinating. Bolton did not say that Trump never said that. Bolton said that he didn't hear him say that. Bolton went on to say that the alleged remarks sounded accurate.

“I have not heard anybody say, ‘Oh, that doesn’t sound like the Donald Trump I know,’” Bolton said in the interview. Bolton said the remarks may have stemmed from Trump’s skepticism of U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. “He was prone to say from time to time: ‘What did they get out of it? What was the worth of the war in Iraq and the war in Afghanistan?’” Bolton said. “That is a kind of insensitivity that Trump does have, there’s no doubt about it.”



I won't link to the article because you apparently think that not citing sources somehow adds weight to the post. So I'll try it.
