Trump was just caught in another lie.
He claimed while visiting France, that he really wanted to go to a US Military cemetery, but was busy, and said that he phoned Melania. Problem is Melania accompanied him on the trip.
Has Donald Trump EVER told the truth?

Funny your go to John Bolton refutes these claims, he was there and heard the conversation.

Trump's attempts to deny his attacks on veterans now has him at war with Fox News





Having this story run on Fox sent Trump into a spiral. First he desperately clung to counter-claims from decidedly faded, third-tier sources like Breitbart. Then Sarah Sanders was brought out of her retirement dungeon to stare fixedly at the story and demonstrate that she hasn’t lost her ability to lie on demand by saying that Trump would never do this because he was so torn up by having to call family members of fallen troops. Sanders did not mention that Trump’s words of comfort included telling a military widow that her husband “knew what he signed up for” as she grieved over his casket.
When sending out someone out known mainly for lying on a daily basis didn’t rescue Trump’s dangling butt, he pulled out the big guns and trotted out the only family member who got a decent rating during the RNC: Melania. Only, not actual Melania. Because the bland tweet complaining about journalists and the use of anonymous sources clearly came straight from Trump (though maybe Melania was the one who checked the spelling).
The Melania-esque tweet was the start of a real pivot … to attacking journalists. And not just the authors of the article at The Atlantic. Instead, Trump began demanding that Fox fire Griffin for having the audacity to actually report what her sources told her rather than toeing the Trump line. In the process, Trump claimed that Griffin “did not confirm the most salacious part” of the story … raising questions of just what Trump thinks is the worst part of this story. Griffin’s sources both confirmed that Trump had called soldiers “suckers,” didn’t want to honor war dead at the cemetary outside Paris, and didn’t want wounded veterans in military parades because “it was not a good look”. Is there something else Trump thinks is worse?
Now Trump has moved on to the search for those sources, and he thinks he has one identified.
Trump says source for story on his disparagement of fallen US solders “could have been a guy like John Kelly,” his ex-WH chief of staff

then he assails Kelly:

“didn’t do a good job, had no temperament, wasn’t able to function. he was unable to handle the pressure of this job”

Sure. Denigrating John Kelly is the perfect capper. After all, four-star general John Kelly only served in the military for 46 years. Does that make him a sucker or a loser?

According to Biden, it's makes him a "stupid bastard". Yep, The Atlantic drums up some fake news story with super secret informants to deflect from video of Biden calling American soldiers "stupid bastards".

I genuinely hope you re-gain some perspective when this shitshow is over.

You're better than this.
