The most plausible explanation for first lady Melania Trump’s out-of-the-blue address on the Jeffrey Epstein drama was that she was trying to make it go away.

But her stunning on-camera statement Thursday from the White House Cross Hall — the spot where her husband last week spoke to the nation about the Iran war — will almost certainly have the opposite effect.

“I am not Epstein’s victim. Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump,” she said, in a statement that was all the more remarkable since there had been no widespread public speculation about the matter in recent days.

    This part is just wrong. He accomplished a lot. He disabled our systems. He created chaos rather than order and everyone is scrambling to bring order when the money behind the chaos is doing whatever the fuck they want.

    Trump is a symptom of the system. The ruling class has us. They have for awhile. Now they are nickel and diming us until the bubble pops and they have to pay.

    This was orchestrated by his supporters. But he’s a fucking moron that just says shocking things.
