The quotes “losers” and “suckers” originate from an article published in The Atlantic in 2020 about former President Donald J. Trump’s relationship to the military. He continues to dispute the reports.

The article relied on anonymous sources, but many of the accounts have been corroborated by news outlets, including The New York Times, and by John F.
