Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, admitted that a key detail of his article about Trump could be wrong during an interview with CNN on Sunday.
“When President Donald Trump canceled a visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018, he blamed the rain for the last-minute decision, saying ‘the helicopter couldn’t fly’ and that the Secret Service wouldn’t drive him there. Neither claim was true,” Goldberg wrote in his piece published last week. According to Goldberg, President Trump was overheard saying he wanted to cancel the trip to the cemetery because “it’s filled with losers.”
At least fifteen Trump administration officials who were with Trump on that trip have now disputed the Atlantic report, including former national security adviser John Bolton.
FOIA documents have also definitively proved that Trump’s visit to the cemetery was canceled due to weather. When Goldberg was asked about evidence that the cancelation was due to inclement weather, he admitted that it was likely true.
“I’m sure all of those things are true,” he told CNN.
This admission by Goldberg completely undermines his entire story. Goldberg claimed the trip wasn’t canceled because of weather. Evidence proves this claim is false. Goldberg now admits that weather causing the cancellation is true. Why should we believe anything else in the story when the foundation of it is admitted to be incorrect?

Anyone can call and claim anything. “Dutch Reform” isn’t used since most reform churches merged into the United church of Christ, which is what “Reverend” Wright was a minister for. BOGUS CALL
Any lawyers here know how the law works when it comes to defamation and sitting Presidents? Can Trump sue? This is outrageous that someone can claim something like this. Where do we draw the line? What if someone accused him of being a child rapist? There HAS to be a way for a sitting POTUS to defend himself against blatant slander, defamation or libel in this case.
Any enlisted, or retired who’sit, who would trade off Trump’s long proven admiration for our troops, which always has shown consistently from before he Ran, and plainly demonstrated in his every word and in his high rate of performance and deeds to repair and restore both our military defense and military intelligence, the VA(!) making these gasbags 1) TOO damned ignorant to serve, or, 2) one more embedded *neverTrump jackal.
No Sale.
Look up the phenomenon of
Gell-Mann Amnesia.
If they had done that in china they’d be disappeared by now without a trace. In Russia, they’d be sick from a mysterious disease.
“Do not underestimate how stupid most Americans are.”
Well, I don’t think it is possible to OVERestimate that, is it?
Of course it’s a lie, and they knew it was a lie. But it doesn’t matter. The leftist media will repeat the lie as if it were true until the election and a brain-dead public will accept the lies as truth.
Seminar callers.
It’s a seminar caller.
It’s a trick right out of the dnc playbook where they pay people (usually retirees and union hacks) to call nationally syndicated or local talk shows to falsely claim that they’re a veteran, a lifelong Republican or both while reading from a script provided by the local dnc kommissar.
