Donald Trump gaffe and verbal bungles watch

[SeattleGriz]

Seeing reports that 11 minutes after the Atlantic article hit the web Biden's campaign was running a prerecorded ad on the exact same claim. Coordination between the campaign and the mag?

I thought Journo-list was shut down years ago.

[SeattleGriz]

The Atlantic’s principal owner (Steve Job’s widow) donated over $600,000 to the Biden Victory fund...color me skeptical about the timing and “sources”...

She donated to a center right Democrat? GASP!

Btw, a Fox foreign correspondent confirmed the story through her own contacts who were there in France...on air this afternoon.

Duh, duh, duh!

Was one of the sources Alexander Vindman?

My unnamed sources stated that Lauren Jobs forced The Atlantic writer to fabricate the story.

Sounds like Rupert is about to break it off in the Donald's ample ass...

And WaPo and NYT all verify with their own sources.

But yeah...it’s all an unbelievable fabrication. Trump would never say anything like that!

Duh, duh, duh!

Not seeing this yet. In fact, don't even seen the story on MSNBC or CNN front page.


edit... it's actually at the very bottom of the MSNBC page... an opinion piece with elected Dems who are veterans. So no bias there.

It’s everywhere and three days old now. It doesn’t matter to his supporters anyway.

Fox news admitted months ago they were moving more towards the center. They gain more viewers and retain their current ones, as they really are the only right of center media.

Smart move to increase viewership.

The way Trump has consistently disparaged soldiers and veterans in public, there's no reason to believe the Atlantic story or its corroborators are lying. I'm sure Trump's worse behind the scenes, and I find no reason to give a pathological liar the benefit of doubt.

But kalm is right; it doesn't matter to his supporters. They'll continue defending a man that doesn't give a shit about anything but himself. Sad how some idolize flesh and blood and bow down to other humans. Even sadder they'd choose Trump as that human.

[Baldy]

If it were true, probably quite a few, but it wasn't. Now it just makes the magazine look bad...again.

"The Atlantic" does a fine job providing read meat for the people residing inside it's echo chamber. To you that is fine reporting, and there isn't anything wrong with it...

The Atlantic is center left at worst. Reliable, well sourced and edited. But all sources should be viewed with skepticism.

'At worst'

So does this mean the leftists hate Bolton again?

Means nothing if he didn't hear it.

Anyways Bolton, Cheney, Bush II, etc. are some the biggest war criminals to ever exist in America. That administration was and will always be worse than Trump's, and everyone involved should face justice at home and the Hague.

Bolton's only legacy is that he was directly involved in two of the worst administrations to grace the executive branch. And no doubt that without Trump's hesitance for war, Bolton, Miller, Pompeo, Pence, and others would have us involved in new conflicts. Bolton creams himself at the thought of nuking Iran, while Pence resists sexual thoughts about the Battle of Armageddon.
