Do you guys think that Trump's alleged comments about troops are going to hurt him? Trump did say in the past that he could shoot somebody on 5th avenue and wouldn't lose any voters. He did criticize McCain for getting captured and still won the GOP primary and the presidency. It's a simple yes or no question.

It'll hurt Trump with voters who are still on the fence. A lot of them will jump over to the Joe Biden camp now.


His base are loyal and they don't care what Trump said.

A lot of his base will now agree with what he said. Many lack basic intelligence, morals and empathy and are easily led.

The only people who are buying the story are the ones who fall for virtually anything as long as its anti Trump.

40% of this country is brain dead (or whatever you call this evil that is Trumpism) that will not change no matter what happens

we all know Trump will lose, it a matter of how the violence that he promotes that follows shakes out

if the GOP continue to put him above country, we may have reached the end of democracy

Most people understand that next to nothing you hear on the road to the election is true. People are used to the outlandish claims against Trump. My guess is this was one of the "October Surprise" type things, run into the ditch by early voting and mail in voting but Biden sinking in the polls, they ran it now. Lastly, Bolton, author of a tell all book, said "If he would have said that, I would have written a whole chapter on it.".

It's just your run of the mill un sourced smear by the Biden media. BTW, if you notice no names other than Trump's were used so as to protect against WaPo being sued for libel.

It's strictly TDS porn for the run up to Biden being slaughtered.

Regarding Griffin, she should not thrown such an un sourced bomb. She can claim all she wants, but it the swamps word against the president's.

How can they agree with something he never said?

And you are certain of this? It doesn't take genius level intelligence to know that he is very capable of disparaging the military like this. The fact you don't see this says a lot about you.

The media depends on shallow people who believe anything they are told, and proceed to through out all kinds of crap. But bottom line it changes no one. Hell there are more democrat lefties who hate the military.

me earlier said:

You just can't throw those bombs and not expect to get splattered. If I was Fox, it would be produce the sources or you are fired.

I believe the correct term is deplorables. I have it on good anonymous sources.

The fact that you believe the tale being told impugns your judgement, not mine.

Better question is “who, at this point, is still stupid enough to believe Trump?”



Rhetorical question.......

This isn't about left or right wing opinions about the military. This is the commander in chiefs opinion.

Good luck ever getting a source again.

After hearing how he remarked about McCain that he didn't like losers who got captured in war does this sound something like he would say?

When you make such a stupid remark as he made about McCain you get a giant asshole label on your forehead.

So would a "asshole" say something like that about deceased soldiers?

I can believe the story based on what I have observed him say. President Trump on the other hand owns you.

I don’t doubt that you believe it. You’ll believe anything fed to you as long as it’s anti Trump.

The official Trump talking point right now is "Trump never said those things."

If history is any indicator, soon the talking point will change and sound something like this:

"OK, he said those things, but it is no big deal."

"OK, it's a big deal, but everybody does it."

"Everybody does it, and sometimes way worse."

"Yeah, Trump said that, and he is 100% right. He's the only one who has the guts to say it."

He can't afford to lose too many. You could fit the number of people who put him over the top last time in a college football stadium.
