If you think Trump is callous…Kushner said lack of COVID supplies in NY “their problem”
Posted by Thomas Bush / September 21, 2020The hits keep coming for the Trump campaign. The Atlantic editor-in-chief is catching flak for the bombshell story about Trump calling war dead “suckers” and “losers,” but the editor is standing by the reporting. In fact, he says that he thinks there will be even more news coming out in the following days and weeks about Trump’s disrespect. The White House has denied the report, of course, and Trump has raged at Fox News for sharing the story, but the Fox reporter didn’t repent.
The original report was in the Atlantic. When Trump lied about why he couldn’t visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in 2018, he insulted the dead buried there by calling them “suckers” and “losers” for dying in war. He also didn’t understand why the United States helped the Allies. Some veterans groups have, unsurprisingly, blasted Trump for his disrespect. Trump is indeed facing increasing fallout from his comments, and those comments may wind up costing him the military/veteran vote.

Midway through the protest activities, a “wall” of vets appeared on the front lines, protesting the presence of federal troops. Video footage shows two Navy veterans being attacked by federal troops,
