"Jeffrey Goldberg's allegations in The Atlantic—that President Trump called fallen American soldiers "suckers" and "losers"—is nothing more than politically motivated slander. Multiple individuals who were with Trump during the 2018 trip to France, including staunch critics like John Bolton, have unequivocally denied these claims. Despite these denials, Goldberg has relied solely on anonymous sources who, four years later, have still not come forward publicly, casting serious doubt on the legitimacy of the report.
Goldberg's refusal to verify or retract the story, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, is reminiscent of his role in spreading false information to drum up support for the Iraq War. Under his leadership, The Atlantic has repeatedly pushed discredited narratives, from the Steele Dossier to the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up, without ever correcting the record. The "losers and suckers" smear has become yet another baseless attack used by Democrats to malign Trump, with no concern for the truth. It is clear that this allegation serves as a political weapon rather than a factual report, and it should be viewed with deep skepticism."
