To be expected just before Election Day:

 

’Here’s the issue: either Biden is the next President or Trump is.  They can’t both win the election, writes Chris Cillizza.’

 

Cillizza sucks, but it looks like the main point of the article is, "Every place has confirmed it. Everything he has said supports that he'd say something like this because look at this, and this, and this when he disparaged the military. So he can deny it, but unlike past presidents, that's a hard sell."

On Saturday, a former senior administration official confirmed to CNN that Trump referred to fallen US service members at the Aisne-Marne cemetery in crude and derogatory terms during the November 2018 trip to France to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I. Fox News, the New York Times, the Washington Post and the Associated Press have also corroborated parts of The Atlantic's reporting.


Trump's insistence that he would never say anything disparaging about a military veteran or the military more generally is belied by, well, facts.

...


Had this report come out about, say George W. Bush or Barack Obama, and they had denied it forcefully -- as Trump has -- it would be a near-certainty that most people (and the media) would accept that the story was just flat wrong. Because there was no indication in any of their past behavior that would indicate they might ever utter such sentiments about the military.


That's simply not the case with Trump. And that fact complicates his defense of himself against The Atlantic in a major way.

 

They quoted a weird part of the article on Twitter.
