      I was thinking this, like wow dude what a way to keep digging deeper. Please keep asking him the same thing on different days and just let him bury himself

              This is not a maga comment, this is comment that points out that general hate against anyone seeing themselves as republicans is as stupid as republicans hating anyone seeing themselves as democrats.

              If we let us be blinded by hatred, only suffering will follow

                In first past the post system, you’re either for or against. Clearly you’ve made your bed, be prepared to sleep in it.

          And some democrats. Let’s stop thinking that everyone is defined by the party they belong to.

    Aaaand now I’m wondering if Trump’s Mar-a-lago club is also a hotspot of sex trafficking where I wasn’t before!

      I don’t firmly believe that he did or did not kill himself–though I lean towards he did not–but I take great offense to how every news organization reports suicide as fact when it’s quite questionable.

    C,mon America! Find your shame again. Where is your moral outrage? This is greater then Republican vs. Democrat. The world is watching.

      Reportedly a lot of his supporters are becoming disillusioned by the whole sex trafficking thing. Like ,what was your first clue but also better late then never?

      There’s even a theory that a lot of people are using the whole Epstein thing as a offramp

    You cannot posses a person so you cannot steal a person.

    Its called kidnapping. Human trafficking.

    Let’s pretend for a second that this actually happened, and Trump was actually upset about it. Where’s the lawsuit? Trump makes habitual use of the legal system for every grievance he has in the world.

    I also kept wondering who are all the staff that kept that pedo island going? From cooks to pilots, and I guess they came from trump and that makes sense. What I wanna know now is where are all those people now? This wasnt a one man operation

    As Jon Stewart said, the biggest crime trump thinks epstein did was poaching his people, not that they were traficked and raped.

    “I told him, I said, listen, we don’t want you taking our people, whether it was spa or not spa. I don’t want him taking people. And he was fine. And then, not too long after that, he did it again. And I said, out of here,” he said, describing Epstein as having “stolen” his spa workers.

    Asked point blank if one of them was Giuffre, who died aged 41 by suicide earlier this year, he replied: “I think she worked at the spa. I think so. I think that was one of the people.”

    “I don’t know. I think she worked at the spa. I think so. I think that was one of the people, yeah, he stole her,” Trump added. “And by the way, she had no complaints about us, as you know, none whatsoever.”

      That’s because Trump thinks raping young women is a normal and unproblematic thing to do.
