    Until its proven with action, this is political theater and misdirection. The DNC does this exact same thing all the time, but the weapons always ship, and we conduct zionist-serving airstrikes constantly, albeit one kind of weapon had a very slight delay in shipment, once.

    At one point, he even claimed that his personal intervention has kept the unpopular leader out of prison.

    Something that hadn’t occurred to me before, but that would make me happy, is that Trump would attack the shit out of Bebe if he felt the need. Imagine him declaring that prison was necessary. A nice thought. It won’t happen, but it made me happy for a moment.

    You choose, mother fucker: Bebe or Epstein. Go!

    Didn’t he brag about solving something like a dozen wars, and thus deserved the Nobel peace prize? This isn’t even a full fledged war, so why can’t he solve this?

    The president of the United States is going on an expletive laden tirade (again). Surely we have reached the point where you can publish the word Fuck in a headline. The broad news media coyness about “bad words” is so fucking asinine. He said the words, publish the words. The guy rapes kids, but heaven forbid those kids accidentally read a curse word, that’d scar them.

      Feel like the US media would say “he allegedly had unwanted intercourse with underage parnters” or some shit like that. Something real pedo-coded.

      It’s all elites protecting the pact that they have. Case in point, even the owner of TheDailyBeast is:

      Barry Charles Diller (born February 2, 1942) is an American billionaire businessman. He is chairman of IAC and Expedia Group, and founded the Fox Broadcasting Company with Rupert Murdoch and USA Broadcasting. Diller was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame in 1994

      Sure they’re ultimately just people, but their class interests and protections will always get ahead of that. Even within those more “left” than the average rich person, class fidelity still dominates their important choices.

        I didn’t know the daily beast was owned by a murdoch pal, not that I ever look at them directly, just social media links. Even more reason to bypass their website if you want their content so they don’t make money from it.

        So that explains why TheDailyBeast is always so clickbaity and editorialized. I’ve always hated and ignored their reporting, even though it’s mostly on my side of the political spectrum…

          Actually a lot of 8-year olds are very mature and are perfectly capable of deciding for themselves if they want sexual relations with mature men in perfect health. A loving relationship between two concending humans does not equate sexual assault, you monster!

          • probably some Trump supporter.

          Not me. Writing the above made me wash my hands twice, my eyes once and puncture my eardrum so I could flush my brain with alcohol.

    All the sources for anything in the oval are people trump pays

    Especially when it’s about phone calls a handful of people were in the room for, if it leaks it’s intentional.

    Which could mean they’re testing the waters of cutting ties, or just to distance himself in the public eye but nothing changes.

        That’s not true at all …

        What the actual fuck about today do you think is normal for the entire existence of America?

          The use of leaks to the press to gauge reaction to a hypothetical policy or announcement? The subject of this comment chain?

            Yes…

            None of those are happening normally.

            If a bus slams into the bus stop at 90mph, you don’t just step onto it. Even if it arrived at the right time.

              No idea what that’s supposed to be an analogy of.

              Are you actually claiming that Trump is the first to practice kite-flying? Because that’s a bold claim.

          They’re right though. “Floating a trial balloon” and “Testing the waters” wouldn’t be idioms if they weren’t a common behaviour.

    Good. Keep that blood pressure up. In anger, he should wolf down four or five McDonald’s cheeseburgers…
