#1 This whole thing sounds liek a coordinated smear job, including VoteVets having a professionally produced ad with 6 god star families interviewed, ready to go on TV Friday Morning, and ads running Friday night.

I smell a setup. I think they got desperate and pulled their October suprise because Trump was pulling ahead, and Judicial Watch was breaking the story about Biden groping the girlfriends of his guards, and flashing females assigned to his security detail.

Funny how this was nowhere for 2 years then all of a sudden out come 4 "anonymous" sources, and all of a sudden Wapo and CNN "corroborate" them despite them being unnamed and anonymous.

This is the swamp at work, including that scumbag John Kelly, the EX-Marine who advocated for eternal war.

#2 This is press scumbaggery of the worst sort. Its so obvious - and so easily disputed by peoplle who actuall give their names, instad of these "anonymous" sources.

This is the sort of thing that makes some people want to hang journalists from lampposts by their own entrails.

#3 People who want to believe it will believe it no matter how much debunking it gets. It's also a classic "you can't prove a negative."

#4 The Atlantic is trash and a part of the Dem media smear job. Trump's soul? Worry about your own soul.

#5 Given Trump's long history of respect and support for the military, you have to wonder just how stupid the Atlantic thinks we are.

#9 Blue and Grey, my guess a reminder that it was formed after the civil war of National Guard units that had been on opposite sides. My grandmother told us a story from her grandmother describing how as a little girl her mother spoke of seeing the confederate troops coming back from Gettysburg passing the family farm in Maryland and how polite they were, gaunt scarecrows asking for food and water. My grandmother always used the term she got from her mother to describe the civil war “ the late unpleasantness”. My fear is it will lack even manners this time.

#10 Who still reads The Atlantic?

The Dallas Morning News, and no doubt, other media outlets. My lovely wife had read all about it before the paper arrived with the front-page story. "Even Fox News corroborated it", she said.

#11 Local news presented this as absolute fact.

Dovere strode to the microphone and asked about an article in The Atlantic, published the night before, that claimed the president had referred to American soldiers who died in the First World War as "losers" and "suckers."

Even my wife, who is Trust but Verify, called like the card game champ, "Bullshit!", in front of the kids.

#12 The owner of the Atlantic is the widow of Steve Jobs and a major Biden supporter.

This was scripted before the piece was published.
