Trump Believes Vietnam Veterans Are 'Losers' and MIA Soldiers Deserved Their Fate
The Washington Post confirmed and added to the Atlantic’s reporting that President Donald Trump denigrated U.S. soldiers killed or captured in war, citing unnamed sources that included a “former senior administration official.”
“A former senior administration official, who like others spoke on the condition of anonymity to speak candidly, confirmed to The Washington Post that the president frequently made disparaging comments about veterans and soldiers missing in action, referring to them at times as ‘losers.'” the Washington Post reported.
In one account, the president told senior advisers that he didn’t understand why the U.S. government placed such value on finding soldiers missing in action because they had performed poorly and gotten caught and deserved what they got, according to a person familiar with the discussion.
Trump believed people who served in the Vietnam War must be “losers” because they hadn’t gotten out of it, according to a person familiar with the comments.
