He's a (Very Good) Friend Of Epstein (Oh, Yes He Is) - Trump Thread #149

[Spandauer]

Taking paracetamol doesn’t give you autistic babies but voting for Trump definitely gives you a festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a back-alley creep, the ignorance of a bar-stool drunk, and the greed of a hedge-fund ghoul— all spray-painted orange and paraded like a prize hog at a county fair.

The cost of medical insurance will go up, just to cover all the extra visits.

Not sure how they'd ever prove it

They don't need to prove it. You need to disprove it.

Seems there are records of Musk travelling to Epstein's island in 2014, several years after the first conviction.

Remember his now deleted tweet ?

Not just Musk, Thiel and Bannon as well

Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered hundreds of generals to travel on short notice from around the world to hear him make a short speech on military standards and the “warrior ethos.”

Was just about to post the same thing. What a wanker 😂

Did he do it just because he can, or did the gin make him do it? The cost, the disruption, the idiot!!

Jesus wept.

I was labouring under the illusion the crazy train had slowed. Nope. There was a new thread where all the crazy was being reported. It was nice while it lasted.

Off to catch up on the last couple of days…

🤔 He's 51?

Ah yes, 51 US, where everything's bigly.
Is the 'social experiment' one where he blames the Hitler 'tache for his lack of pulling power?

I watched the Ryder Cup golf on record, FF thru the adverts and Donald Trump’s appearance.
I wish we could FF thru the years of his presidency

Just a speed scan through the headlines on the NYT and WaPo websites is enough.

Besides all the ongoing abuses being carried out by his administration and ICE, on his own pathetic personal level he's ramping up going after those who were bigly meanies to him 2016-2020. Comey being this week's #1 target. Even Fox News doesn't think it will succeed in any conviction. But with Trumpkethinskin that's not the most important thing, he wants the noise, the headlines, the indictment on record, pure vengeance.

Looks like Willis is next.
The Department of Justice has issued a subpoena for records related to the travel history of Fani T. Willis, the Georgia district attorney who charged President Trump in a sweeping election interference case, according to a federal grand jury subpoena reviewed by The New York Times.

The scope of the investigation is not yet clear. Also unclear is whether Ms. Willis is the target of the inquiry and whether she will ultimately face charges. Grand jury proceedings are secretive by law.

Lets hope the following administration doesn't take such a stance against members of the current one.

Additionally let's hope that members of the current administration aren't aware of what could befall them once these practices are accepted. Because if they are, they might not think rationally.

I don’t think this post, from Oliver Kornetzke on Facebook in August, has shown up here yet. (Sensitive image, be warned.)

How low can Trump go? I think he's hit the bedrock, then he finds a new level of disgust.

At this point, I'm wondering what it would take for the Republicans to do their jobs and put a break on him in Congress.
Threats to their lives?
Threats to their seats?
Blue state succession?

Is there nothing they will not accept?

@TheABC - I agree, but Ι wonder what in particular you are referring to today? There is so much he says and does which goes far below mere zero tolerance.

Ugh! Another grifter-in-the-making.

Kai Trump, Donald Trump's granddaughter, is using the White House to sell merch on social media. She posted this video to her accounts.

It seems that they were inviting Musk to the island. Not quite the same thing as him actually accepting or going.

If Europe wins the Ryder Cup, is Trump going to throw a gigantic tantrum and claim they cheated?

Trump says he’s authorized Hegseth to use “Full Force” against Antifa in “War ravaged” Portland

That Antifa which is made up of all the people who don’t like him and who he doesn’t like? That “faction”? What is he on?
