Being born in D.C. makes me hate him even more. A child of government bureaucrats? Or a refugee anchor baby whose sperm and egg donors wanted to stay close to the U.S. Treasury?
According to Wikipedia, his father came to the US from Cuba when he was 11 years old. His mother is of Irish and Czech ancestry. That explains why he's such a wild and crazy guy.
The Acosta surname can be either Spanish or Portuguese.
Actually, the name originally comes from the Portuguese, for what it’s worth...
Even snopes can't verify that he said that.
And?
What’s your point?
I thought so.
Good grief.
I recently saw a very thought provoking interview with Todd Rose, the author of ‘Collective Illusions’:
(It’s interesting that the Left, which in my youth valued non-conformity, is now all in for conformity...)
He’s just repeating a lie from a liar, as if it was the truth.
Bravo!
You’re correct, the media blatantly lied about it.
“his is someone who, according to his own former chief of staff, said Americans who died in war are, ‘suckers’ and ‘losers.’ Trump denies that, although John Kelly confirms that Trump did say that.”
John Kelley’s only “statement” on this issue is in a book he wroe where he said “Trump is someone who called soldiers suckers and losers” or something to that effect. He NEVER stated that he personally heard Trump say this.

This article relies on the fake Jeffrey Goldberg Atlantic article which NAMED NO SOURCES.
Kelly just refers to Trump as though the Atlantic article was TRUE, instead of saying “Trump said soldiers are “suckers and losers”.
“”A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all ‘suckers’ because ‘there is nothing in it for them,’” Kelly said of Trump. “A person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because ‘it doesn’t look good for me.’ A person who demonstrated open contempt for a Gold Star family — for all Gold Star families — on TV during the 2016 campaign, and rants that our most precious heroes who gave their lives in America’s defense are ‘losers’ and wouldn’t visit their graves in France.”
2020: Trump responds to accusations he called dead American soldiers ‘losers’
06:41”
On that basis Biden is a pedophile and Harris is a whore because I read on the internet that someone else said that.
And the amazing thing is that Kelly says Trump “wouldn’t visit their graves in France”. Trump was in France when he supposedly said this. So why did he travel 3,000 miles to France on the 75 Anniversay of D-Day? For a F**cking croissant? Or to honor the dead??? WHY WAS HE IN FRANCE????
Excerpt from article: "Referring to Gen. John Kelly who was with Trump during the trip as his Chief of Staff, he said: 'I did not hear POTUS call anyone losers when I told him about the weather.' Honestly, do you think General Kelly would have stood by and let ANYONE call fallen Marines losers?"
John Bolton who was also on the trip said "it was false."
Mike Pompeo was on the trip as well, and said he was with the President most of the trip and "never heard him use the words" attributed to him.
It was the Biden Administration that started the rumor again via Twitter in 2023 knowing that Trump would be the only viable Presidential opponent at that time.
“Yuri called it.
Today people believe men can be women and women can be men.”
Yes, today people are destructively delusional and being led to believe they can be anything they “identify” as or anything that they “manifest”. Led to believe lies by the Marxist Democrats and globalists, who are being driven by Satan. It’s all to harm and/or destroy humanity... to get back at God.
They are AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE.
YOU SHOULDNT WATCH THIS DEMOCRAT LYING LEFT WING CRAP.
Nice little conversation with yourself.
Think about it.
Well...they’re just West Spain, right?
With a somewhat more mellifluous dialect of Latin...
I doubt they’d appreciate that - they’re rather proud of their own history.
Not sure that Brazil should be considered a great achievement.
But then there’s always Astrud Gilberto. They did have that.
Good to know Acosta is against Politizing the news. /s
Whatever!
