On Sept. 3, The Atlantic published the supposed testimonies of multiple Trump insiders who allege the president called slain American soldiers “losers” and “suckers” and that he wouldn’t visit a memorial honoring them because of his hair.
Does this look like a president who calls our soldiers “losers”?

In 2017, ABC News reported that Trump “retriev[ed] a Marine’s hat that was blown off the service member’s head as he guard[ed] Marine One at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, where the president arrived … on Air Force One after attending the G-20 summit in Germany.”
Not only did Trump chase down his hat; he attempted to do so twice. This is not the behavior of someone who lacks respect for our military service members.
But the magazine made it clear to us what kind of evidence outweighs the respect and honor we see Trump display for the marine:
“These sources, and others quoted in this article, spoke on condition of anonymity.”
Mind you, these are the only sources The Atlantic used for the entire basis of the article’s headlining allegation.
