The firestorm continues over sociopath and draft-dodging liar Donald "Cadet Bone Spurs" Trump's multiple derogatory comments about fallen soldiers and prisoners of war, not to mention military service in general. While loudly denying he called veterans both living and dead "losers" and "suckers," multiple sources independently have verified that he did.
As is his sick nature, he can't help releasing venom in comments that were intended to fight the charges. To wit, in his campaign appearance / press conference yesterday on the White (Supremacist) House's north portico, Trump claimed that "the soldiers" were in love with him, but went on:
"I'm not saying the military's in love with me -- the soldiers are, the top people in the Pentagon probably aren't because they want to do nothing but fight wars so that all of those wonderful companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy."He knows he said those words "suckers" and "losers" and much more, and he knows his top aides and military officials heard him, thus the preemptive attack on "the top people" in the Pentagon who may come forward. So, as he always does when confronted with unpleasant truth, he lies and goes after the truth tellers. As would a bad card player who tips his hand by a quirk or "tell," Trump's "tell" is the preemptive attack, meant to discredit any unfavorable story. It's a sure sign he's lying about the "losers" and "suckers" story. It's the same case with the election, where he's laying the groundwork by attacking the integrity of the vote by asserting "voter fraud" by mail will occur. It's the panicky act of a dangerous demagogue who will stop at nothing to maintain power.
