The whole thing sounded like TDS porn in the first place. There are some things that are too ridiculous to be believed.

In case anyone missed it.

The Atlantic is owned by a Democrat mega donor who happens to be friends with the editor in chief who published the sensational article using "anonymous sources".

113 pages on a thread about TDS porn FAKE NEWS. Pretty sad.

It makes you wonder what the Left is trying to distract you from. Maybe they're realizing the desperately need to shift attention away from BLM and Antifa getting increasingly violent and insane.

Preambule : I cite you but you're far from the only one concerned by my comment.

What I find interesting (and slightly hopeful) is the fervent denial by trump supporters proves they'd be actually shocked if he has actually said that.

A little light of humanity left? (I've always been some of the semi-optimistic kind)

Is he really withstanding it? The guys got pretty thin skin. Throwing a hissy fit on Twitter isn’t “withstanding” it.

The media does that? Or he does that? Very seldom does a politicians home town hate them.
I posted a similar post at some point on this thread, but I prefer yours.

He's not.


Just 37.4 percent of active personnel in the US military support President Donald Trump's re-election, while 43.1 percent back his Democratic opponent Joe Biden, according to a new poll Monday

They were all with Trump during the alleged incident and they're saying The Atlantic article is completely false:

-Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Former White House Press Secretary
-Hogan Gidley, Former Deputy White House Press Secretary
-Dan Scavino, White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications
-Jordan Karem, Personal Aide to President Trump
-Johnny DeStefano, Former Counselor to the President
-John Bolton, Former National Security Advisor
-Mick Mulvaney, Former Acting White House Chief of Staff
-Stephen Miller, White House Senior Advisor
-Tony Ornato, Then-Secret Service Special Agent In Charge Of The Presidential Protective Division
-Derek Lyons, Staff Secretary and Counselor to the President
-Dan Walsh, Former White House Deputy Chief of Staff

https://www.donaldjtrump.com/media/w...tory-is-false/

Anonymous sources? The Atlantic article is standing on very flimsy legs.

11 named sources vs. allegedly 3 or 4 anonymous sources.
Who do you believe?

Well, you mention Bolton who from what I hear has simply said he wasn't there so he debunks nothing and others like Huckabee Sanders who so ably shilled for Trump can hardly be considered unbiased sources.

Gen. Kelly refuses to comment. WHY?

One report says Trump claimed to have phoned Melania at home to express his disappointment about not being able to attend the event in France due to weather. Kinda funny since Melania was with him in France at the time.

And Trump calling McCain and others who were captured on the battlefield losers is well documented.

You're gonna have to do better than White House staff and likely Trump supporters to debunk anything.

The author of the piece is almost beyond reproach. A scholar with an impeccable reputation. Hard to call fake news on this one.
But then again maybe everyone with decades of experience and prestigious honors are all malicious liars. We are not talking about Rush Limbaugh here.
