Holy s***
Unnamed sources shouldn't be criteria for dismissing the legitimacy of a reporting. It is not a novel concept, its there to protect the source and they have every right to request it.
Jeff Goldberg is a very well regarded writer. And there are other journalists who have corroborated elements of the article too. Fox's own national security correspondent for instance.

Given its public knowledge that Trump did skip that visit to the cemetary citing bad weather, and given he immediately leapt to attacking John Kelly, its not hard to put two and two together and figure out he is most likely the source.

Trump's comment on Mccain and POWs, which he denied making, are easily found. We have what Mattis has said in the past. All in all there are a multitude of actions and remarks he's made against the military. These comments being attributed in the article are not out of character. And rightfully have been reported.
Nobody is expecting it to flip your diehard Fox news viewer. If they were to be flipped it would have happened long ago. The intended audience is military voters and the effect is evident.

Goldberg sucks. He cheerleaded the Iraq war at the new yorker and has tanked the Atlantic since he took over as editor. This wouldn’t be the first time he takes bs info from gov sources for a popular story.
I wouldn’t doubt Trump said this. Been confirmed he at least said it about McCain. The big joke is that we’re now supposed to prop up people like Kelly? Mattis? The butchers of fallujah? The ones who spearheaded gitmo? Even after covid these two pieces of s*** still have a higher body count than trump. We live in a world with no history when Democrats prop these men or even mccain up in contrast to trump. Are Wisconsin residents going to protest the Kenosha shooter by showing solidarity with John Wayne Gacy?
It’s so cynical everyone props up the troops now when Trump’s attitude more accurately reflects how our country actually treats veterans. We’re now supposed to pretend we honor these people who have needlessly died in a never ending Vietnam 2.0?Support the troops - who come home with hardly any resources to restart their domestic life? Can anyone name an armed conflict since WWII where we weren’t the bad guys?
The buried quote from Trump is him asking who were the real heroes in WWI, if we were actually the good guys. We are living in hell if Trump is channeling Noam Chomsky more than any other political figure.
Don’t fall for this poll bullshit. His military support was already dodgy to begin with before this story and they always try to pull this after any of his controversies.

You really trying to make this into some profound anti-war statement from Trump and not just him being a c*** who doesn’t want to get his wig rained on

trump obv isn’t anti war you dingus he’s given defense budget huge boost, increased drone strikes, and killing soleimani was John Bolton wet dream s***. him saying that about wwi is when his aneurysm brain can connect the dots for 30 seconds
Has no one pointed out that Biden had an ad responding to trump’s Atlantic “quote” within 12 hours? A televised ad. There is no way that s*** was made and added to televised scheduling within half a day so either someone leaked it to them in advance or the team actively discussed it with the Atlantic:

Go watch what war hero’s have said about Trump. Watch what Trump said about McCain being shot down and captured. Watch him attach gold star military families. Look at how he undermined the military court for someone who was convicted of committing war crimes. Look at the things he has saint about general Mattis. Look at the things he said about the commander who took down Osama. I could go on and on. Look at the military poll showing Trump losing. There is a pattern and most ppl understand and see that. These stories that broke out against him are likely true given his past. It’s very believable.

trump says enough stupid s*** upfront out of his own mouth on air that you dont need to go by second hand stories to make him look bad, he does it enough himself. i just think it's dumb and irresponsible to print stories based on "a guy familiar with a guy who was in the same room as a guy"/etc. (they do this with more than just trump). it generally doesn't add anything and just creates unprovable controversy whereas the same point could be made with his own words.
lmao
Lol what was this dude's point? I thought he wanted a moderate, and he wanted to take down Trump. Why waste all that money otherwise :word:

Like 90% of workers receive paid leave, it jsit isn’t federally required.

This is false. 24% of workers do not have access to paid sick leave. And only 43% of part-time workers have sick leave benefits.
Sent in my absentee ballot application
Gonna hand it in to the county election board during the early voting period

The Bureau of Labor reports that 76% of private sector jobs get PTO and nearly all government jobs get some form of paid leave. So, 90% was being too generous, but that would still put the number somewhere in the 80’s.

You're still being too generous
I literally said 24% workers don't receive paid leave...100% minus 24% = 76% buddy.
These workers include private AND public workers.
