    Wait, the Epstein list that definitely doesn’t exist may have his name planted on it?

    The goalposts have left the fucking stadium.

      The goal posts have long since achieved escape velocity. At the beginning of this stage of the Epstein scandal, the goal posts were in stable low earth orbit. They are now at the L1 Lagrange point between the earth and moon.

      Also, the Epstein list that definitely doesn’t exist and may have had his name planted on it also says that Bill Clinton visited the island 28 times, and you can trust that number because he read it on the list which doesn’t exist and if it does exist you can’t trust what it says.

      I never went to the island, and Bill Clinton went there supposedly 28 times

    The files are real, I’ve got them on my desk

    My enemies are named in the files.

    I’m not going to release the files for people to see the context.

    Nobody cares anyway we won’t talk about it.

    Ok everyone cares about it but the list doesn’t actually exist

    Okay it exists but all instances that mention me are fake <-- you are here

    That didn’t happen.
    “The files don’t exist.”

    And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
    “It’s just full of Democrats.”

    And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
    “Old news, move on already.”

    And if it is, that’s not my fault.
    “Somebody planted my name in it.”

    And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
    ???

    And if I did, you deserved it.
    ???

    That last one is going to be a doozey.

    It’s very clear that he’s on the list and that’s not surprising. What’s surprising is that out of all the people in these bureaus and government, not a single person is standing up and doing anything. It’s unbelievable that there aren’t and people with intrinsic good in them to fucking do something about this.

      Last 10 years have really shown us how trash this country is, haven’t they?

      Americans aren’t very smart. Americans are pretty weak.

      Sad. But true.

        Americans invented the propaganda systems which have now eaten their brains. It is currently being trained on the rest of the world.

        (They also warned us about those same propaganda systems, but we didn’t care about that.)

        Heads up.

      They don’t exist.
      Okay they exist, but I’m not in them.
      √Okay I’m in them but it’s a forgery.
      So what if I’m really in them?

    Ah yes, his name was planted in the files by his political enemies to defame him and then they kept the files secret for years to make the frame-job extra believable. Very credible story, no notes.

      Unfortunately, it is. Gotta find out who Trump is trying to fuck or kill so that we can make big enough of a stink to protect them.

        I get your point, but, no.

        Finding out who he’s planning on damaging is important. But an article that starts with “Trump says…” is already too conciliatory.

        Every article reporting Trump’s insanity should be written appropriately: “In full damage-control mode Trump tries to pretend his name may have been planted in Epstein files.”

        “Trump violates the constitution again, in claim that…”

        “Despite ruling from superior court judge, Trump pushes ahead with illegal kidnappings.”

        This is what the media needs to do, and every time they don’t, it’s a failure that doesn’t deserve our attention.

      Yup.

      I haven’t even watched Trump speak since, I dunno, maybe 2019. It was around that time I realized there was literally no value in listening to anything that comes out of his mouth, on any medium.

      He’s a felon rapist thief traitor that must be stopped. Nothing else matters, certainly not anything he says.

      Don’t you just hate when you’re maliciously added to a giant scandal that you had nothing to do with? It’s always the ones that were perpetrated by a man that you knew for 15 years that described you as his only friend and that introduced you to your current wife.

      Happens to me all the time too.

      We don’t, because we know he lies. Conservatives, however, are very well known for being incredibly gullible.
