Trump's current failure - affordability, and he promised!

Patrick Chovanec @prchovanec.bsky.social‬
"They don't care about Trump's past sins, they care about his current failures" is quite a GOP message.

‪Aaron Rupar‬ ‪@atrupar.com‬
Rep. Jason Smith: "Epstein had been dead for years. It's not something I hear from people when I travel back home in Missouri. They care about the affordability crisis."

Heh. Sure, Trump might very well have been a pedophile, but what matters now is that he's raising consumer prices with tariffs!

g0177235 might very well have been a pedophile. Apparently no proof is needed to simply make the allegation here.

There's a possibility that Trump is a pedophile is not an allegation, which is what g0177235 said. However, since you think she made an allegation and then used the same words for her, you made a genuine allegation and then said you need no proof.

Except that we all know you just just don't seem to understand what "might" means. May = expressing possibility.

g0177235 might very well have been a pedophile. Apparently no proof is needed to simply make the allegation here. ~OLDMARCO000

Well, did g0177235 write a happy birthday card to Epstein and sign it,
"Happy Birthday Jeffrey — and may every day be another wonderful secret." ~Trump

Is there actual video footage of g0177235 partying with Epstein and young (underage?) girls?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUDr_c2PalI

Did g0177235's name appear over 1700 TIMES in Jeffrey Epstein‘s emails?

Did g0177235 say, "And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything!" ~Trump

Was g0177235 literally found guilty of rape?
"A US District Judge has now formally held, in a lengthy written opinion, that it is perfectly appropriate, and, indeed, entirely accurate, to call Donald Trump a rapist."
https://newrepublic.com/post/174448/judge-e-jean-c...

Did g0177235 admit that he was "best friends" with known pedophile Jeffrey Epstein?
"I’ve known Jeffrey Epstein for 25 years. Terrific guy, He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes HOT teen girls as much as I do,
and many of them are on the very young side." ~Trump

Did g0177235's niece say he was "very close friends" with a known pedophile?
"Trump's niece Mary Trump insists her uncle and the pedophile were very close."

Did g0177235 have Ghislaine Maxwell moved to a cushy club fed where she’s now been given a therapy puppy. (How much is that costing American taxpayers?)

Did g0177235 continually refuse to release the Epstein list after promising during the campaign to release them?

Listen your cult leaders son...
"Show us the Epstein client list now!!! Why would anyone protect these scumbags?!
Ask yourself this question daily and the answer becomes very apparent!!" ~Don Trump JR, 07/08/23

Like the rest of the Trump cultists, it is clear you do not know what the word "evidence" means. Stop being an idiot. You are destroying the country with your willful ignorance.

The question is, what does it say about your character that you are working so hard to protect someone who was good friends with a pedophile and often bragged about it?

Good friends with a oedophile? You mean Lawrence Summers? Or Michael Wolff? Or perhaps Bill Clinton? Or maybe Obama's White House Counsel?

So far we have:

-Multiple democrats flying down to Pedo island (Trump never did)
-Multiple democrats maintaining contact with Epstein even after he was outed as a criminal (Trump pointed out his criminal behavior)
-A democrat being programmed by Epstein live while questioning a witness in Congress (no Republican did that)
-A democrat asking known criminal Epstein for dating advice on how to abuse a mentor/mentee relationship literally the day before the guy was arrested (Trump never did that)
-A high ranking democrat executive branch official in regular contact with Epstein (no GOP'ers there either)

...and yet, the dems *still* think they have something here.

Hey, why not. Roll with it. Me, I'd like to see a few known weirdos get hammered by this.

This has all the makings of a left wing circular firing squad, and I'm here for it.

Dope1,

The same thing occurred to me just before I read your post about the Dem circular firing squad so yeah you got something there.

This is going to be a catastrophe for the Dems.

Remember, it was Massie, a Republican, who pushed this in the House.

And look at the friggin genius minds leading the Dem Party.

Hakeem the Dream and "Whirlwind" Schumer. Both losers, both failures, both reviled by their own parties.

It will be fun watching Elizabeth Warren chopping up onions and carrots to throw in the pot to cannibalize as many white male Democrats who she probably on some level views as competitors (for campaign contributions, if not for political office;and attention of course) as possible. Like a Bugs Bunny cartoon--throw 'em in the pot.

Maybe Lizzie is even contemplating a run for Prez in 2028. She's very ambitious and has zero scruples.

Poor Larry Summers, but he was just Liz's appetizer. I'll bet she really enjoyed munching his fishing tackle. LOL.

It shows you the strength of the left wing bubble. See how easily it pretzelizes logic?

The libs honestly think that Trump is Epstein's best friend. Oh, wait. Trump threw Epstein out of Mar a-Lago when he caught him preying on women. Then they changed their story to "Well, Epstein says that Trump's a BAD GUY!". Yeah. Normies are going to consider the source on that one.

Then we have the docs themselves. Unlike when the little d's ran the House, evidently there are members of the minority party sitting in on these document reviews. Remember how the dems would only hand-pick the people they wanted to sit in their Star Chambers?

These democrats sifted through 20,000 documents and came up with...bupkis. Nothing. They had to lie and release previously known information dressed-up as something new. It blew up spectacularly for them.

But the democrat bubble is so thick they really and truly believe that there's a hidden smoking gun. Never mind that the demo committee members - who are more than willing to lie - have had access to this stuff for months now. And never mind that there has likely been millions of dollars' worth of offers to Epstein's victims to Implicate Trump No Matter What courtesy of left wing dark money groups. Yet, nothing.

Obama didn't release any Epstein files. (Epstein was first convicted in 2009). In fact a few of the emails released show multiple contacts between Obama's White House Counsel and Epstein. Why? She (his former counsel) will have a lot of fun explaining her role, won't she.

Biden didn't release any Epstein files. Why not? Some have said because Biden's DOJ was still doing investigations. If so, those investigations didn't go anywhere, did they? In fact, it's dollars to donuts that Bondi's reversal in July to say that there was no evidence to charge third parties was probably largely based on whatever investigation had already been done by Biden's DOJ. It's going to be a laugh riot if it turns out that Merrick Garland or some other high Biden DOJ official has a memo in those records in which they confirm that there is nothing to see here.

But the best part will be Elizabeth Warren and perhaps others like her absolutely tearing apart anyone she views as a potential 2028 nomination rival just because they were name dropped somewhere in those files.

You go Liz, give 'em the Summers treatment.

Of course if she tries that on Trump, Dershowitz, or someone else with cojones,she will get her caboose sued off.

Exactly. There are plenty of democrats in those files. The dnc had to know that before agreeing to this strategy. What's especially stupid is that they had the files themselves when Biden was in office and did nothing...and you and I both know why: there are a LOT of democrats and left wingers caught up in this. Summers, Bill Gates, Plaskett, all the way up to the Obama White House.

And now it's all going to come out. Heh.

Patrick Chovanec doesnt seem to understand zone-flooding.
immediate failures become past sins the minute the MAGA entertainment value exponentially drops.

note this does not include kleptocracy, which is no sin nor failure for the gop, but par for prioritizing trump's business interest above all else. (and hoping they can go along for the ride)
