Pretty sure this was reported on before the 2016 election and nobody gave a shit.
All his voters wanted to be at the party. When the "grab them by the pussy" tape was revealed, his voters donned "Trump can grab me by the pussy" t-shirts.
That tape had more impact than it gets credit for. My parents were die-hard Republicans until HitlerPig came along. They were very ambivalent, but were still planning to vote for him when the tape came out. That sealed it.
For the next two years, whenever his name came up, my Mom would go on a rant, starting with "I don't know how any woman could vote for that man..."
She despises him to this day, and "despises" is far to polite a word. I'm not sure a word exists to describe how much she hates him.
Rape culture is the default in USA.
I can't get over that scene in that shitty transformers movie where the adult dates someone that is underaged, and he carries this snippet around where in some state under some circumstances you are allowed to hace sex with someone that is underaged. There was no point of that. She could've just been 18. The guy could've just been 17.
Nooooooo trust me bro the list will ruin him bro, trust me. Just one more rape allegation and we beat facism bro they just have to release the list.
No wonder why he is deflecting so hard. He has walked back so much stuff other than harming people and ruining economy.
Didn't the whole Epstein stuff come up when he decided to run for president? I always wondered if he only ran to be in better control of the fallout.
He ran to avoid jail.
All of this news coming out now show you just how terrible democrats are at being a real opposition party. All of this was known and it never came to the attention of the media.
To be fair, this was all information that was published before. Just like now, it changes absolutely nothing for his supporters.
Not to say that the dems aren’t terrible at messaging. But this seems to be more of a case of Trump having so many scandals that people forgot the details of this one. Saw someone post the other day that they went to Epsteins wikipedia page and had completely forgotten large swathes of it. Its just too much, too fucked up, for people to hold on to it.
And the worst part is, none of it is hidden. The video from the 90s (maybe early aughts) that had him speaking about his good friend ‘who, you know, likes them a little on the young side,’ was from Inside Edition (iirc). Dude casually admitted his friend was a pedo and it gets published as a puff piece.
None of this is new, none of this is unknown, its just unbearably fucked up.
Not as unique as you might think. This might be an elite class issue. A lot of people knew about Harvey Weinstein before he got metooed.
Yeah this isn't exactly true. I'm pretty sure this was reported on before 2016, and people just didn't care then.
But yes, Democrats are awful at messaging and drop the ball at every opportunity.
people just didn’t care then.
Which "people"? I thought/think it's fucked up and I wish it was a bigger issue. It's literally media/hegemony that chooses which tales to hype or bury.
Enough people to elect him twice.
A lot of it was out. The Republicans refused to believe it until now.
It shows there are more Democrats on the list than Bill Clinton.
Who cares, reveal them all.
The billionaire media moguls like the Murdochs, Bezos and Musk don't care for the idea of removing Jerome Powell from chair of the fed and they already got their big bill and Vance. Donald is used up and they can keep this from going away until it gives Donny a stroke from the constant stress.
...downvoters ok with fucking kids?...
Maybe due to how they where not invited?
The real criminals here are....Obama, Hillary Biden, and Adam Schiff, though! Something something argle bargle "coup" ten years ago! Why won't the liberals see that?!!!
Hillary's husband is on the flight logs, we dont need to play team sports when it comes to child rapists.
The pedo pals
Well now I have the title for the worst kids show.
You'll find a niche online market.
Great! Now its even worse!
Epstein was a young woman? No way.
It will be our little secret party 🫲🍊🫱
On Truth Social, President Donald J. Trump issued a bold and unequivocal statement today blasting what he called a “DISGUSTING, DESPERATE, and TOTALLY FAKE” media smear campaign, denying reports that he hosted a private party for young women with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as the only other invited guest.
“LET ME BE VERY CLEAR,” Trump said from his Mar-a-Lago estate. “I NEVER — and I mean NEVER — HOSTED ANY PARTY WITH EPSTEEN OR WHATEVER. NEVER HAPPEND. TOTAL FICTON. Just more LIES from the FAILING FAKE NEWS MEDIA.”
The allegation, first published in The New York Times is based on statements by Florida businessman George Houraney and claimed a gathering at Trump’s Florida property included young women and only one other guest—Jeffrey Epstein. Trump called the implication “SICK, TWISTED NONSENSE from a LOSER who I REFUSED to give a job to, even though HE BEGGED ME!.”
“JEFFREY EPSTEEN? I BANNED HIM FROM MAR-A-LAGO, OKAY? He was a VERY BAD GUY. Everyone KNOWS IT. The WORST. Unlike SLICK WILLIE CLINTON — who was flying on the ‘LOLCITA EXPRESS’ like, what, 30 times? SAD!”
Trump went on to recount an alleged emotional encounter with a supporter. “A VERY STRONG MAN came up to me, big guy, tough — real tough — tears in his eyes. And he said, ‘SIR, THANK YOU for NEVER going to that party. THANK YOU for KICKING OUT EPSTEEN.’ And I said, ‘I KNOW.’ He cried. It was beautifull. Most people wouldn’t understand.”
Team Trump emphasized that “no credible evidence exists” of any such party and warned that legal action may be taken against “SLANDEROUS HACKS” in the press.
“IT’S ALWAYS FAKE NEWS,” Trump concluded. “THEY’VE BEEN LYING SINCE THE ESCALATOR. TOTAL WITCHUNT. VERY UNFARE!”
I can’t tell if this is real or satire 🙃
The hits keep coming
