    Epstein Bibi Israel around Trump

      This is all the better because we know he’s seen it. And this is exactly the type of trolling he loves to dish out so much being thrown back in his face.

      So not only could he have lost supporters over the slop, the reply slop is superior. It ridicules him with Epstein while highlighting what a farce his inner circle is.

      He’s probably simmering on it every time he stops focusing on further bungling things with Iran. I hope it’s a contributing factor to some stress-induced condition that hurts like hell.

    The insane thing is that he says he thought the image was of him as a doctor.

      1. Even the first time in office he’d rip stuff up, try and flush it down toilets, and even eat it. 2) There’s a lot of stuff his administration shouldn’t be able to do, so long as Rs are majority and Dems lack a spine it doesn’t matter.

        Sure. I’m aware of that, as well. It could also be investigated, possibly, if he is ever out of office and we don’t “move forward”.

        So much damage has been done and it will take generations to fix, secure and codify if we don’t want a repeat. If it isn’t fixed, it seems the next attempt would be more successful for GQP.

    And to all MAGA Christians upset by his post: Give me a fucking break.

    It wasn’t the child rape and murder but the picture of your fairy tale that was over the line? Yeah right. He’s been blasphemous since day one, and supporting him was a conscious choice by Christians. They can serve only God or Trump, and they chose Trump.

    It doesn’t matter what he deletes, it doesn’t matter what they think about him now - they are blasphemers by their own religion.

      Trump wishes he was that important. IMO, people of ancient times ran into douche bags just like trump back in the day and wanted to warn future generations.

      75 generations of “telephone game” and you cooked up a whole religion.

      Remember the reporter (for the WaPo, I think) that was caught on camera reacting to one of the more insane things that Trump or his administration said in the White House briefing room during his first term? She became a brief, minor celebrity.

    Putting aside all the horrible stuff this guy has done and using a Bible as a prop and holding it upside down is okay but this picture is apparently one step too far.
