Another reason Trump is going on his Quixotic campaign against mail in voting. Most servicemembers that do vote have to do it by absentee mail in vote. His campaign against it potentially robs them of their right to vote.
Same for his campaign to end the Stars and Stripes- a publication by soldiers for soldiers is another media outlet he cannot control.
I see he quickly reversed course because it's a battle he won't win.
In a previously unpublicized memo cited by USA TODAY on Friday, the Pentagon delivered an order to shutter the newspaper and cease publication after Sept. 30.
Press advocates decried the move, arguing it was the latest in a series of decisions by the Trump administration to undermine independent reporting. The initial order followed Trump's appointment of an ally to Steve Bannon, his former top adviser, to head the agency that oversees Voice of America.
"We are disgusted at this latest attempt by this administration to destroy the free press in this country," said Society of Professional Journalists President Patricia Gallagher Newberry.
Trump and his cronies want to muzzle the free press because it is his kryptonite. So sick in America people support this wannabe dictator.
They didnt confirm he said it. They confirmed that there are 2 sources saying he said it. Big difference.
Jennifer Griffin said she spoke to two of the sources used by Jeffrey Goldberg, and they confirmed the story. WaPo, AP, and CNN have also all confirmed the story.
But trusted journalists at Fox News are saying it was confirmed by their sources. The wonderful people in uniform deserve a President who respects them, even if they get shot down or become injured.

It certainly took them long enough. Fox News confirmed it yesterday.
CNN published an article yesterday about the Atlantic article and said they had not checked it. Today they were able to speak with the sources, and confirmed it. That's Fox, CNN, AP, and WaPo. Quite a mixed bag of news outlets.

He also said that he didn't hear it, but it was in keeping with something Trump might say, and he could have said it laterally in the day when Bolton wasn't there.
Hardly a denial.
