It’s been sourced from Atlantic, AP, Wa Po and Fox News. And you think it’s a scam?

Well Trump obviously thinks John Kelly was one of the sources, so I’d say chances are pretty good he knows he said those remarks to him. Trump reamed Kelly during his press conference, saying he was tired, out of it, and couldn’t handle the job.
The biggest story in the country and you think Biden wasn’t prepared to answer it? Of course he would be prepared to do so.
I heard Trump hired a hooker to pee on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier cuz he hates not knowing stuff.
Who makes it the biggest story in the country?
Trump announced economic normalization between Kosovo and Serbia today. As Biden might say "That's a big f*cking deal". Think maybe the Biden campaign knew this was coming and wanted to make two-year old Trump bash that has already been written about the "biggest story"? Biden knew this was coming, not because it's the biggest story, rather because Biden wanted to talk about it.
Still no names attached to the story, from Fox or anyone else. All the ubiquitous “anonymous sources”.
Plus there is evidence that the Atlantic lied about why the cemetery trip was canceled. If that’s the case, why on earth would you believe anything else in the story?
"Make of this what you will" should have been included in the original iteration.
It is a response. It's the mark of a good communications director/press secretary.
Of course I'm done with you now because "Quick! Look over there!"
4 sources from the Atlantic
I each confirming, from AP, WaPo, and Fox. So 4-7 sources.
You apparently take Bolton's "I didn't hear that" as "this is bull shit, and it didn't happen" Of course, you'll note that in Trump's denial he said he never call McCain a loser. Which is of course a lie, so using your logic is the whole denial bullshit?
Maybe it's a mark of a good political operative. But that is irrelevant to the issue of honesty and genuineness.
This isn't a question of honesty. An article was written about your opponent that should have a positive tilt for your campaign. A good campaign worker makes sure that the reporter that will ask a question about that story is called on.
Just because that happens, doesn't make the story false.
Of course you know that, but you know, you need to make this about something, anything, other than Trump is a giant POS.
Since when did honesty and genuineness ever concern you?
JFC, now you complain? You have defended the most dishonest administration/president in our nation's history on an almost daily basis. The total "losers and suckers" are those who still support this clown.
Trump and his press secretary do what you’re alleging at every press briefing. OAN ring a bell?
No it doesn’t make the story false. But that manipulation raises red flags about a scam.
COH is a head case. Today he accused me of selective outrage, then he comes up with this shit.
“Supporting?” I agree with a number of his policies. Serbia-Kosovo is the latest example. I guess I’ll leave it to others to determine if that is supporting. I have never defended and often criticize how he treats people.
This could sink Trump’s chances to win in November. It’s the biggest story at the moment.
Here’s the thing, if you heard W did this, you’d say NFW! With Trump, you think it’s true right? That’s the issue.
People don't remember much after a few days --but they will remember a president who isn't loyal to our troops or veterans.
He just likes to play the contrarian. And it seems he refuses to break character.
You are stretching in your attempts to discredit multiple news sources. Most people wouldnt turn such a blind eye if they didnt support the person.
LOL. Rachel is right now in the middle of giving the story the A Block treatment.
What is an A Block treatment?
I heard Miles Taylor, a Republican who now dislikes Trump but was in Homeland Security under Trump just confirm part of the story. Trump wanted to order the flags back up to full staff after McCain's death.

The A Block is the first segment of the show. In Rachel's format, it's the first 20 minutes or more before the takes her first commercial break. When I say "A Block treatment" I'm saying she's leading with the story and it's getting a lot of time devoted to it.
Because that’s how journalism works. The Atlantic isn’t going to publish something like this unless they have multiple, credible sources on record. Otherwise, they can be sued. If Trump sued them, the sources would become public. Trump will probably threaten to sue them if the story doesn’t go away, but he won’t. That’s because the story is true, and Trump is a liar.
