“That man doesn’t deserve to have been the commander in chief for my son, my uncle,” he said, referring to Beau Biden and Ambrose Finnegan, who both served in the military
President Joe Biden choked up Wednesday talking about the military service of his family members and former President Donald Trump’s disparaging remarks about service members.
“They asked [Trump] to go visit American gravesites. He said, ‘No.’ He wouldn’t do it. Because they were all ‘suckers’ and ‘losers,’” Biden told a crowd of union workers. “I’m not making that up. The staff who were with him acknowledge it today. Suckers and losers.”
He paused for a moment and added, “That man doesn’t deserve to have been the commander in chief for my son, my uncle.” Beau Biden and Ambrose Finnegan both served in the military before Trump took office.
Biden’s comments referred to Trump’s 2018 trip to Paris for the centennial of the end of World War I, when he declined to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and reportedly called Marines who died at Belleau Wood “suckers” and fallen soldiers at the U.S. cemetery “losers.”
Okay here you go.

I mean it’s not like we all have access to the Internet and can verify these numbers at any time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Iraq_War
Sure, but its your claim. Thanks.
So from your own sources:
Lancet survey** (March 2003 – July 2006): 654,965 (95% CI: 392,979–942,636)
Iraq Family Health Survey*** (March 2003 – July 2006): 151,000 (95% CI: 104,000–223,000)
Opinion Research Business**: (March 2003 – August 2007): 1,033,000 (95% CI: 946,258–1,120,000)
PLOS Medicine Study**: (March 2003 – June 2011): 405,000 (60% violent) (95% CI: 48,000–751,000)
So keep in mind those numbers don’t include the entire time frame of the war. Two stars for violent deaths, three stars for excess deaths.
So very very easily well over a million deaths due to the US invasion, considering those studies don’t even consider the entire time frame of the war, since the US didn’t withdrawal until 2021, and excess deaths almost assuredly increased in rate over the period of occupation.
But they don’t have to back up their 1 million claim?
It literally says 1 million in the quote above.
He edited it after.
You posted the article they quoted from.
Did you not even read what you posted to support your claim?
It says that claim with a billion asterisk which blame every bad death on the war lol. And it’s very far out from the other numbers.
At what point is it also all the terrorists groups and militias faults?
Ask them for it. They should.
