Man, it would be incredible if Epstein and Trump's inability to shut up about it is what brings this regime down.
Its a nice thought, but I worry about all the judges he appointed, and how long they last beyond his presidency.
Bullets are cheap.
If Luigi is found not guilty things could get wild.
if he's found guilty, they're gonna get wilder
That's why his case will linger in limbo until people forget.
Never happen. This is spoken like someone who has some glimmer of hope in the justice system and that it doesnt just bend to authority like everything else.
Luigi is gone. The only thing that we can save is the memory of an idea. He is a future folk hero.
Back when Trump put up his tower, Jackie Kennedy Onassis was famously fighting to preserve New York landmarks like Grand Central Station. Trump's own architect told him to leave the façade of the building alone, but Trump overruled him. Trump blew the perfect opportunity to get in good with elites because he was too greedy and arrogant.
Bonus- there's a guest apperance by John Barron!!
His buildings are just so ugly too, fr. You gotta try hard to be that ugly.
I was living in New York when the Tower first went up. When I was in the area I decided to stroll in and see what the controversy was about. At street level it's just black glass. Inside it's all gold with a waterfall. I thought it looked like a big golden toilet.
Wait, wasn't your whole political philosophy built around ignorance and spineless loyalty? If you train them to fall for scams and conspiracies don't get shocked when they go for another conspiracy that you don't like.
...because I don’t want their support anymore!
Damn, he's gone "full Hitler in the bunker". "Those damn traitors! They failed me!"
he’s gone “full Hitler in the bunker”
There's just one more important step for that to be true ... and I don't mean poisoning his dog.
Fucking his niece? Cause he's already doing amphetamines.
There is no war in Ba Sing Se, you hear me? THERE IS NO WAR IN BA SING SE
Reminds me of this pic I saved from Lemmy recently
The one thing that is in the back of my mind is what is Trump going to do next in order to attempt to cover up this Epstein list situation? Will he declare war on a foreign country? Will he declare war on the people of the United States who stand against him?
When the last republican president had an approval rating as shitty as trump's, he lucked into the worst terrorist attack in US history.
It will absolutely be against US citizens because MAGA cares far more about not having foreign wars, than having gestapo disappear US citizens.
Could be a as simple as:
Not chicken out on those tariffs that [absolutely nobody actually believes are] going into effect in 14 days.
And if that hasn't fucked shit up good enough in a month, he could move on to plan B:
Not chicken out on his "50 days for Russia to end the Ukraine war" ultimatum.
The more he reacts, the guiltier he looks. What a morone.
Dude is freaking out because he's finally being treated like any other politician, and his pathetic ego can't handle it.
PLEASE let this be the beginning of the end. I've aged like 5 years in the last 6 months.
Also for anyone seeing this comment, here is the testimony of Katie Johnson who claimed Trump raped her and other 13 year old girls multiple times. Fair warning: it goes into excruciating and brutal details:

Please save and spread.
Trump went on Howard Stern and boasted about barging into the dressing rooms at the Miss Teen USA pageant. He famously perved on his own daughter. This is nothing new
That’s generally what cult leaders do, they don’t bend to their followers, they beat them down as weak and fake believers until they fall back in line. And the ones who do get out immediately become the enemy and the devil in one.
This is Jim Jones/David Koresh type shit
John Steward actually wrote a poem to conservatives about this situation, it goes like this:
How, Does, My, Ass, Taste, Now ?
Urrrp!
I'm guessing this is why they are working on rigging the elections. So he'll be insulated even from people that peel off due to his pedophile platform.
if its a hoax, why keep denying thiers no list, or its made up.
So when do we get to the cult leader showing weakness and losing control of his enraged mob who tear him apart part?
Child rapist says what?
His supporters and the whole maga movement are born out of qanon and pizzagate. There's no way he's going to handwave his way into them giving up on their one unifying cause.
"Hoax" ia the same term he used to refer to the well-documented evidence that he's a Russian stooge.
They are weaklings. Because they are gonna roll over and show their bellies till Faux "News" tells them their opinions. They'll mental gymnastics Epstein Island into Yam Tits being on the lists because he was trying to save those kids.
He's a fucking pedofile and MAGAts are pedo-supporters.
This is interesting... In the past when Trump has tried to push back on his followers he's followed the TACO principle. Like when he wanted to take credit for the COVID vaccines but his audience was anti-vax he quickly softened his language to "take it... if you want it tho. Maybe it's poison who knows?"
He's never been a leader - he's just been an amalgamation of all of the racism and conspiracy theories his followers have. He says "yes" or "maybe" to everything. I think this is the first time he's really said "no" though?
He's organized crime looking to continue his break into fascist dictator. His sycophants he's surrounded himself with don't care and prefer that he's a rapist and a pedo to try to control him, but the people he conned into voting for him buy bumper stickers like this:
So what happens when the ranks push back on the orders? He'll exile them if he thinks he can get away with throwing them under the same bus as his lawyers, AG, VP, etc or capitulate. But in this case capitulate means he'll probably try to redact himself and his fluffers from the docs then share them and hope they're dumb enough to accept the redacted reports.
Thinking about how low these folks usually go, I'm wondering why they haven't just worked up a fake hatchet job file selectively incriminating their enemies and exonerating themselves. It possibly wouldn't matter if it were called into question by evidence of tampering. Their devotees are indoctrinated enough to swallow almost anything -especially if it reinforced their biases against people they've already been trained to hate. What fallout are they afraid of in releasing a doctored list? I'd wager this will be the eventual outcome. A fake file that most know to be fake, but will mollify his base.
My wife and I have been discussing this. My take is they’re gonna graduate from the list isn’t real to “Epstein isn’t real.” They’re gonna double speak the man out of existence to cull this list talk.
Donny really trying to sweep this under the rug, he will continue to alienate many who support him
Love to see it.
I could've sworn Trump pushed pizza gate stuff in 2016 but maybe he never directly did. (Not that I'm expecting him to remain consistent on anything.)
