    I have no idea to what you are referring and who cares? Might offer a suggestion to you, get outside and enjoy the weekend instead of watching whatever dumb news cycle you are obsessing over...might do you some good

    If (and that's a big IF) the story on Trump calling dead soldiers losers and suckers is false, then I don't really blame Trump on this one. It's her magazine, and she's quite clearly a Biden supporter.

    I just want to know if it's somehow Trump's fault that Novak Djokovic got DQ'd after defaulting at the US Open today.

    I would agree with that, except that it's been independently corroborated by the AP, CNN and Fox.
    So IF it's false, someone has roped a bunch of people into the story.

    It HASN'T been corroborated. There have been multiple people come out ON THE RECORD to say he never said those things. Those people were with him the entire day.

    The ONLY ones saying he DID say those things are anonymous sources.

    Jeffrey Goldberg, who wrote the article for The Atlantic is a HUGE Hillary Clinton guy, and The Atlantic is a left-wing rag.

    Let’s say he did say those things...would it change your opinion of him? Your vote? Probably not, right?

    That’s what matters here... there are few undecided votes and no matter what either side puts out nobody’s opinion will be changed. Kind of like this thread?

    As Bernstein points out, over 200 of their Watergate stories were from anonymous sources. (including Deep Throat).

    I wish the people would go on the record, but understand why they don't. These allegations aren't crimes.
    They are merely reflections of the lack of fitness of Trump to be the commander-in-chief.
    Why lose your job and chosen career in the military or civil service over this guy. Hopefully he'll be gone soon.

    If the situations were criminal, I'd hope people would have the strength to speak up.
    Like Vindman and others, it may cost you your job and career...but you would be upholding your oath to protect and defend the constitution.

    If true, I don’t see how anyone could vote for Trump. Biggest problem here is it’s a he said she said situation and is almost impossible to prove either way, especially how much time has past. How many here can remember what they said a couple of years ago let alone last month. I mean, their are people here on this board, in the press, and Biden still misrepresenting what Trump said about Charlottesville and we have the damn transcript.

    There are numerous stories of how Trump has been nothing but gracious and sympathetic towards the families of fallen soldiers. This story is a hit piece 60 days out from an election. You really think we wouldn't have heard about this sooner had he really said these things?

    On the other hand, John Kerry DID call American soldiers and military leaders war criminals and accused them of genocide during Vietnam.
