It really makes no sense. With John McCain, which the story is clearly intended to be a spin off of, he had already personally gone after Trump. Mocking his capture in Vietnam was Trumps way of jabbing back. The soldiers who lost their lives , who defeated the axis powers, are basically one of the pillars , in Trump’s view, for having pride in the American way of life.

Dude loves a winner, and loves to win. I can see him possibly talking about the other side, in a disparaging tone, but it makes zero sense for him to do that to our guys.

That isn’t even remotely the same thing but I can see why the Atlantic pushed this to dupe you morons because it aligns with the same theme. McCain is a POS and a major political enemy of Trump. Not even in the same galaxy as disparaging dead WWII soldiers

There is a chasm of difference between saying it about one person (whose life showed him to be a huge POS) and an entire cemetery full of people.

One involved John McCain, someone he had a personal dispute with that he considered a traitor and personally affronted by. McCain literally tried to sabotage him and worked with his political enemies behind the scenes to do so. What he said about him was stupid but personal.

The other is talking about soldiers in general that were killed in World War 2.

You cannot possibly be so obtuse.

If Mattis and/or Kelly go on record denying it then I suspect it’s all BS. If they remain silent then I suspect it’s true

John McCain was a bloodthirsty, psychotic warmonger. Save your sympathy for the hundreds of thousands of Middle Eastern civilians who perished because of that bastard's foreign policy. May he rot in hell.

Yes, because two staunch Swamp dwellers are going to make a point to clear Trump's name. They're THAT virtuous.

one of my favorites from Trump was his vernacular switch from 'radical terrorists' to 'losers'

Would have preferred a homophobic term more but that wouldn't go over well

I agree

Trump shits on people who come after him. If someone so much as gently criticizes Trump he'll go below the belt. I acknowledge that.

Trump has never, that I can tell, just randomly shite on a group of people viciously, particularly something like veterans or war heroes. It makes no sense and doesn't align at all with his personality. When you see Trump for who he is - a vanity-driven guy who basically loves those who praise him, hates those who criticize him and ignores everyone else - this story doesn't ring true.
