To get a sense of how low the Biden campaign is going to go in its quest to oust President Trump, the Atlantic hit job from Thursday is a pretty good indicator.
The evidence is piling up that the easily refutable, anonymously sourced so-called story, claiming that President Trump disparaged veterans, wasn't really an Atlantic news story at all; it was a coordinated hit job involving the press, Democratic operatives, and associated leftist groups connected to the military, executed with impeccable timing. The Atlantic is building a name for itself for its uncorrected false stories, and this one's not at all different.

I hope fake news Atlantic goes bankrupt. There is enough BS in this world without their stinking contributions.

"If they had anything with truth, they'd use is, but as it is, all they have are lies, and they're comfortable with lies."
This is a key piece of information. Trump may be the most investigated man in America and they have NOTHING. The dems/media/Left's clear path since Trump was elected is to lie. When they had strong Deep State support, they did the "Russia" meme. When that was thoroughly discredited, even though they still continue to repeat the lie, they moved on to other lies, each seemingly weaker that the last. Some have collapsed the same day they are launched. The obvious truth is that the dems/media/Left/NeverTrump are willing to say and do ANYTHING to win this election.

Fox news is still wondering which way the wind is blowing on this... and many other topics.

First of all, Trump should sue for Defamation. Force the Atlantic to give up their Sources. Secondly he should do the same to Jennifer Griffin who went on FOX all day since this hit the Airwaves. She too should give up her sources at the Pentagon. Trump needs to know who is working against him there, then fire them! Lastly, I would hope someone in the Trump Camp will have their own ads up and running as of TODAY! Have every Military person they know up front and center speaking in Trump's behalf. Do not sit back and hope this goes away. They need to fight Biden's Ads. Trump can't take the chance that Military people will actually believe what Biden put out there! Fight fire with fire!

Consider the source.
It's an election year.
There will be more of these stories show up.
Eacn new "shiny object" will have much more severe and ridiculous charges.
The media is in an incestuous relationship with the demonrat socialists.
"Anonymous Sources" now mean FAKE NEWS stories made up with no actual news source.
Orange Man bad, Get Trump

The Russia Hoax failed, then impeachment. Now they try again with a phony Atlantic story.

Jennifer Griffin is a lightweight when it comes to military matters. IMO, the only true military/war correspondents from Fox News were Amy Kellogg and Steve Harrigan who reported live from the battlefield in the early part of the Afghanistan War. The rest are amateurs slinking around the Pentagon picking up leftovers from generals and their PR hacks or siding with "vets" who may not even have a DD214 or who actually served, but at the supply depot like Sgt. Crapgame.

Heed this: if it comes from the media or a govt bureaucracy, assume it is a lie and start from there.

The important thing about "swiftboating" is that the allegations have to be true....and truth is something that the left always forgets can't be made up.

The Atlantic, as well as most other media, has surrendered it's integrity and honor to the Marxist/communist left. Absent integrity and honor, a person will say or do anything. They have destroyed any respect they ever had.

Of course it was a slime job...they have been trying to bring him down since the day he was sworn in and they are like a smelly air in a high wind...they puff out some new 'theory' about how Orange Man is so bad, it smells like what it is, and it dissipates in the wind...and then they puff out another one from some anonymous source...the source is the rot inside their souls....

It was obvious from the first second. All lies. Atlantic has now earned a spot on my "never waste your time on this trash" list.

An interesting fact that the media is not reporting: according to the Federal Election Commission, Laurene Powell Jobs, widow of Apple founder Steve Jobs, is a majority stockholder in The Atlantic; she has contributed over $600,000 to the Biden Victory Fund. Also, an event that took place two years ago is just now being reported right before the election.

This one is too easy, which makes me suspicious. It’s an obvious lie, and the left knows it. What are they misdirecting from?

Hey #8 stop denigrating Crapgame. If you recall, the Hustler actually went along on the gold op, and it was his idea to make a deal with the Tiger commander--"maybe he's a Republican!"
