The guy who gave Epstein a laughably paltry sentence for this exact allegation before is currently on Trump's fucking cabinet. That's damaging no matter what color the swamp is. If Biden is getting shit for old controversies over busing people.... This reminds me of the cases of affluenza, where some rich/powerful twat gets a slap on the wrist for a DUI or rape conviction. Happens all the time, and if the person who decided a wrist slap is appropriate is now a member of the president's cabinet, and larger circles....yeah, fuck that. Outrage is justified. Epstein allegedly ran "hundreds of girls", at least some of whom were underage. I again, maintain there's a difference between "child: not sexually developed" and "underage girl". Epstein, and likely Trump and others dabbled in the latter. That's a very subjective line, especially when you're talking about 70 year old rich, white men. It's gross as fuck when some crusty millionaire marries a 22 year old, right? Well, how much grosser is it when she's 16, and it's technically pedophilia? Ask any 18 year old dude, and they will tell you 16 is plenty fuckable...but it's a deplorable position to be in, illegal as fuck and completely inexcusable for a bunch of old, white billionaires. You think Trump checked the id of every "model" or "pageant contestant" he diddled all the way back to the 1970's? And NONE of them were smart enough to use a fake id to get access? I remember one of the rock-biographies (maybe "the Dirt"?) talked about the groupies, and said "their average age was 15". This clearly was going on in more places than backstage at a hair metal concert. For someone who used access to beautiful women as currency, has faced dozens of assault allegations, cheated on his third wife with a porn star and had a cartoonishly shady lawyer pay her hush money, yes it's TOTALLY FUCKING BELIEVABLE that he fucked some of Epstein's victims, considering they ran in the same circles, some of the alleged crimes occurred at Mar-A-Lago, and the Cabinet member's involvement. It's like Pizza gate but y'know....real.
Except the Mueller report came out, and surprise surprise, Trump knew. Every adult male who "partied" with Epstein, yes. They're all suspect. No, and yes. This looks really bad for Bill Clinton for example. Hillary had multiple congressional inquiries and FBI investigations shoved deeper up her ass than a colonoscopy probe. None of them found anything other than an ill advised practice shared by other Secretaries of State.
Oh, yay....we're talking about Democrats who are not in office and never will be again. So glad to hear more hypotheticals about Billary. I'm sure this will impact the completely imaginary re-election campaigns. Seriously, aside from Bill's real implication in this, why the FUCK are you talking about Hillary? Could it be that you simply don't have a real villain to compare Trump's fuckery to anymore? Clearly relevant to the situation where a sitting Cabinet member essentially pardoned a billionaire from sex crimes, that investigation may be re-opened due to another investigation, and said billionaire may have committed said crimes on a property owned by a sitting President's company, of whom said President was quoted as saying: "I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life." I can't wait to see who else gets implicated in this, as Bill Clinton will likely get up-fucked by this, and I'm sure dozens of others. Hey, wonder if Robert Kraft is next in line? Or some of the Fox & friends crew? https://www.businessinsider.com/jeffrey-epstein-trump-link-liking-women-on-the-younger-side-2019-7 This looks bad for ANYONE, especially a President with the history of sexual assault allegations this one has. Fuck, Bill Clinton had a FRACTION of that and they went through impeachment proceedings. Sorry, what were the goalposts being moved, again?
Would you believe Hillary Clinton? Did you read the leaks or....? Did she obstruct justice when she destroyed evidence with hammers and wiped data off servers? You don't think she was a sell out to donors even though she went to wall street and gave them a speech detailing she was doing exactly that? Is this evidence not as compelling to you as the evidence that Trump works for Putin and has sex with children? I wonder how that could be.
So has this thread really devolved into, "Nuh uh, the rape your guy committed was worse." Lets try to keep it civil as well as meaningful, if it at all possible.
Hypocrisy is one thing, but the compulsion to repeatedly engage in fantasy because you don't like someone for other reasons is what I'll never get. Obama was born in Kenya, whacked all off his gay lovers gangsta style, and was a phone call away from sending out his army of FEMA trucks to round up whitey. Even then the representatives and mainstay conservative media didn't run wild with it the way the democrats have with Trump. He'll probably lose in 2020, so it'll be interesting to see how hard republicans push with our ever plummeting standards. Personally, I want a president that eats babies. Delicious, succulent, delectable babies. We don't know that we've elected a baby eater yet, but the media will find reasons. I have faith. The point I was trying to make was that whether or not the rape actually happened should still be relevant.
"the compulsion to repeatedly engage in fantasy because you don't like someone for other reasons is what I'll never get" Coming from you, this is the funniest fucking thing in this entire thread.
Tell me about it. You got another reddit link to share of that Russian oligarch plane that follows air force 1 around?
I was just rep'd a comment about how I could just ban "one person" who keeps derailing the thread. Here's an idea... don't fucking engage with said person.
Thread is back open for a few days to see how it goes. Some people don’t want it at all so if things don’t work out and people don’t play nice then it gets killed for good.
During the pause, Acosta resigned for no reason whatsoever. I’m sure it’s because his heart just isn’t in it anymore.
To put into perspective how insane the scale of dismissals and resignations has been, take a look at this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Trump_administration_dismissals_and_resignations It takes awhile just to scroll through all of them. Many of them broke records for shortest tenures ever in their position, and then these were often re-broken by their replacements.
Hoo boy.... https://mobile.twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1150381394234941448 ...he’s talking about cities in his own nation. That’s your country, fuckhead. That’s on YOU if nobody else.
Can it be both? It’s interesting that this time, regarding that tweet, his own party is going on Fox News to speak out against him. I don’t think it’s any kind of tipping point by any measure, but they’re certainly distancing themselves from his opinions en mass.
There's really not much more they can do. He says a lot of stupid shit, but this one is pretty out there, even for him.
