Sadly.

Nobody can confirm anything because it's all anonymous sources. The only non-anonymous source, John Bolton, has refuted it.

Trump says a lot of dumb and sometimes nasty things but in this instance I think he's been set up.

John Bolton said he didn't hear it but wouldn't be surprised if he said it when he wasn't there. It's something Donald would say. It's confirmed by high profile journalists. I'd take their words over QAnon.

It's a cult. If Trump knows the amount of money that can be made from his cult he'd quit the presidency and start a Church.

I find it surprising that Trump saying something as obscene as "US war dead are losers" doesn't make it back to John Bolton, or become public knowledge until 60 days before the election.

The timing of this revelation coming so close to an election is something it seems reasonable to quibble about, though it's Trump, every week seems to come with shocking revelations and there's no reason to suppose it stops now. It's almost like being a thick as shit, narcissistic, corrupt, conspiracy theorist with racist leanings and sexual assault history who surrounds himself with some awful people lends itself to some less than flattering stories about his behaviour.

You're quibbling about the timing of this? if Comey hadn't "reopened his investigation" into Clinton's emails 2 days before polling in 2016, we wouldn't be in this mess.

According to Goldberg the eyewitnesses have been kept anonymous to proteft them from being inundated with angry tweets. I have symoathy. This is clearly a case where whistleblower regulation has failed to keep pace with changing technology.

Also Bolton must be kicking himself for not including the episode in his book.

I'm saying the media holding back a story until they deem the opportune moment wouldn't surprise, but given Trump's behaviour we get this sort of scandal all the time from the orange one, if it wasn't this it would be something else, I doubt at this point Trump would suddenly have veered into the territory of basic competency and decency absent of this latest story detailing his failings as a human

This is all setting a nice evidentiary standard.

Apparently one anonymous source making the same claim as another anonymous source now equals confirmed. So that all you need.

OK just trying to step through this.

We have 6 different sources making the claim and Bolton and H-S denying. Add Trump that means at least 9 people witnessed the outburst.

It should be fairly easy to guess who the six are. Unless there were more than 9. If there were more than 9, say 11 or 12, that would mean say 10 or 11 people, including Bolton and H-S who are clearly lying, sat on this for 2 years. At the very least 8 people sat on it. Without a hint if a leak until now. In contrast to all the other leaks, which happen within minutes, days or weeks. That's quite a feat. Tje question is why. Why would at least 8 people sit on this so tightly for so long?

Here's the Atlantic article and the relevant excerpt.
In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning of the scheduled visit, Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed.
So it looks like Bolton wasn't at the early meeting or near the later conversation. But at least 7 other people were including H-S, who is a liar. Still a neat feat for all those people to keep schtum.

I personally don’t believe these fake anonymous sources.

There is absolutely nothing Trump has said in the past that would make me believe them.

I mean he only called McCain a loser twice in public, which is essentially zero times so why would I believe that he would ever say it in private.

On a similar not, he only openly mocked an injured POW once that I know, so there is nothing that will convince me that he would ever do it when he thought no one was listening.

It is all completely against the character of the man.

Next you will be telling me he is a sex pest just because he bragged about molesting women that one time he was unlucky enough to have left his mic on

You don't? I do. Mainly because he said something similar about somebody else some other time, which means he definitely said it this time. And he didnt say it when he thought nobody was listening. He said when he thought that at least 7 other people were listening.
