Former Deputy White House Chief of Staff Zach Fuentes denied to Breitbart News The Atlantic’s account of President Donald Trump’s comments about troops in Europe.
Fuentes unequivocally denied The Atlantic’s report last week, a huge blow to the establishment media narrative. Fuentes personally briefed President Trump on the weather situation that led to the trip being canceled. He is also a close personal confidante of former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.
“You can put me on record denying that I spoke with The Atlantic,” Fuentes told Breitbart News on Monday. “I don’t know who the sources are. 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?”
He specifically also stated that he believes The Atlantic’s sources “are unlikely first hand accounts.”
“They are conflating those people from something the day after,” Fuentes said.
Fuentes also told Breitbart News he is upset that Trump has been speaking negatively about Kelly.
“On a separate note, I am disappointed to see POTUS talk about General Kelly so negatively in the middle of being accused of saying negative things about the military,” Fuentes said. “If anyone understands selfless service, it’s General Kelly.”
The fact that Fuentes—Kelly’s closest ally—is now publicly denying the report from The Atlantic is a monstrous strike against the credibility of the report. Several Trump critics, including former National Security Adviser John Bolton, have also denied this happened.
Hell, they are unlikely accounts by any description. They are totally fabricated, desperately created out of frustration and impending doom.
I don’t think most of those condemning Trump over this even believe it; they simply like to be fed bullshit to hate Trump for.
Has Trump ever in the past life to his cult followers ?
Mexico will pay gir the wall
@John: You’ll have to at least make an attempt to make sense.
@John: Mexico is paying to feed, clothe, and house the 27000 or so soldiers policing the border while the wall goes up…
…but yeah, when you can’t win, bring out the “anonymous sources”.
We call that lying.
I’t always good to have a MoH recipient’s take on this bullshit. Notice what he has to say about anonymous sources.
