“Unless you’re a psycho or a crazy person or a very stupid person, who would say that, anyway?” Trump said, referring to his alleged comments.
Why, yes Donny. That is correct. Only a psycho or a crazy person or a very stupid person would say that. So glad we can finally agree on something.

Nah, I never forgot. Some of us have good memory, Captain Bone Spurs.
If Trump were two people he'd allegedly hate himself so much.
Trump is two people; like Gollum, except instead of a ring it's cocaine.

Uhh... multiple people have confirmed he did do this. So yeah he's right. Only a psycho would do this.
Maybe it's Mandela but I really think he did this on video...
Not this specific thing, but he's said similar shit in speeches like "I like people who don't get captured" while shitting on the last republican with morals.
There’s so many videos of him saying crazy ass shit, I can’t imagine how long it would take to sift through all of it and find this specific instance.

The funny thing is they could forever leave the "draft dodger" conversation in the dust if they just stopped nominating people over 70. But they just can't help clinging to power by forcing us to vote for the lesser of two geriatrics.
There hasn't been a conscription since 1972. Anyone 18 at that time is now 70+. Let it go old folks. Just fade away peacefully. Enjoy your retirement. You can have a nice time without being inflamed by facebook posts to try to start a racewar.

Kind of frustrating the article doesn't link to any of the evidence Trump said these things.
The article links to the Atlantic, the original release of the original source for both quotes.

Pull it up jamie
The thing is, Trump fans are as immune to facts, even after being presented with them, as Rogan fans (of course, there's a huge overlap between them). They could be given a time machine trip back to see Trump say it themselves and Trump would say, "fake news!" and they would believe him.
No evidence in the world can convince you if you have faith.
Because the desperation to have a degenerate like themselves is too great that they will fight every issue and red flag as a singular and outlying issue.

"That should be good enough to convince those suckers and losers to keep on liking me" - Donald Trump, probably.
That oughta hold those S.O.Bs.
only "a psycho" would have called them "losers" and "suckers"
Oh so he admits it.
Yes! Exactly! Trump tells on himself so often that every other sentence is a confession. Recently he accused Biden of doing nothing but stealing credit. Back in 2016 there were clips going around of him saying (among other things) that the economy does better under the democrats. I wish that one had circulated more than "grab her by the pussy" because I think it would've diffused his base more.
Play the tape, please.
Jamie, pull up the clip
Or just a complete asshole.
Now if only he were self aware…
Trump unintentionally said a very based thing.
Only a psycho would challenge an institution of power in a runup to the election, or in a position of governance.
At the end of the day, one of the reasons armies even exist at this point is because any politician who may have political will to truly challenge the army and demilitarize would face an armed resistance and violent overthrow, which necessitates the proliferation of an institution that by itself is hugely harmful and parasitic.
The power of the rulers is held on violence, and any attempt to change the status quo will be challenged by the people extorting us all using the real power, equipped with weapons able to kill everyone on Earth.
In some ways, it's the army that controls the rulers, not the other way around. And the former will do everything to keep holding to their control - and to keep existing even when they shouldn't.

I agree.
He is well known to refuse responsibility for his shit
The person who quoted him was his chief of staff at the time, so, yeah, he should know!
