“I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it” - Pedo Donald Trump

[-] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 60 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Trump supporters: He was actually trying to catch the other pedophiles. He was doing white hat pedophilia.

[-] hemmes@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

That's just pedophilia with extra steps

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

According to CSI: Miami people pretending to be against child sexual abuse to be around victims to also victimize them is a whole tactic that's used.

[-] SoleInvictus 5 points 2 months ago

Don't forget rapist! Rapist pedophile Donald Trump.

[-] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 92 points 2 months ago

Why is this news? It's just a fucking used plane.

Unless there is a stock of underage prostitutes in the minibar this just sounds like a weird coincidence.

[-] bamboo 95 points 2 months ago

Trump has been trying to distance himself from Epstein since 2019 and is currently in the middle of an election. This just brings it up in everyones mind linking the two of them again.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 57 points 2 months ago

Or, maybe it's an indication that he runs in the same social circles as human traffickers. There are a lot of used planes flying around, and hardly any of them used to belong to a good friend of Trump's who kept women as slaves to rape them, selling them to people like Trump so that Trump could also rape them.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

"Lots" of used private planes? In usable service? It's a small world when talking about multi-million dollar conveyance.

This is a nothing burger and a distraction from real headlines we should be hitting with. It's chaff on the social media radar.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Here's a website listing over 200 of them for sale.

https://www.controller.com/listings/for-sale/gulfstream/aircraft

That's just one website, and those are just the ones for sale currently. Sure, they are expensive, but there are also too many self indulgent weiners with too much bloody money.

[-] rayyy@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

The orange rapist had so many fond memories of his trips to pedo island on that plane.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

His seat on the plane is formed around his ass.

[-] 5in1k@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Yes, there are a shit ton available for sale and rent.

[-] suction@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

While I agree 100% with you, unfortunately this is the kind of stuff that might sway a few “undecided” to not vote for him. Again I’m not saying that’s logical or anything, but this is where ~~we~~ they are…

[-] Plastic_Ramses@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Trump used epsteins plane in an attempt to cover evidence.

Did yall forget that epstein died under trumps watch?

Or did yall just forget that there is a massive amount of private planes for sale that arent epsteins private jet?

Either way, youre defending a person that is known to be on the lolita express.

You say women, but I think children would be a better term. I agree with what you're saying, it's just most of their victims were children.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

That is correct.

[-] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 37 points 2 months ago

why is "is kamala indian or black" news? it shouldn't be, but here we are.

this is funny jab, nothing more.

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 months ago

Maybe he's trying make sure there's an excuse for his DNA being all over the plane.

[-] Socsa@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 months ago

Yeah totally I just flew on Epstein's plane last week because mine was out of service and I have tons of pictures with the guy

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Epstein's plane

Epstein is long dead, if you hadn't heard.

FFS, we got pictures and video of the two chumming it up, and far more than my poor link, and this is a headline?!

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

"Why is it news that an alleged pedophile is using a know pedophile's plane who he was friends with until his 'suicide'"?

[-] dev_null@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

It's not like he owns it though, it's just a chartered plane that probably had tons of previous users and will fly someone else tomorrow.

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Sure, just another instance of a decades long coincidence with trump and his pedophile friend Epstein.

Total coincidence

It's a problem for him because this post is here. And in a million other forums across the internet, It's going to be brought up people are going to talk about all the weird s*** these said over the years about liking Epstein. Is this just a PR mistake. Honestly in the room of his PR mistakes it's not even the worst. But it happened and it'll be in the news and will be here because that's just how things work.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

This story is so meaningless I don't have words. It's a blatant take falsely relating Trump and Epstein. As if there's no other evidence.

Remember kids, liberals can be as dumb as conservatives with their social media bullshit. (But I have to say, liberal memes are far more on point. The "couch" shit is getting old, but at least it has some amusement value.)

[-] suction@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

To us it’s silly and dumb and unnecessary, but not to them who obsess about pedophiles in the government. Just imagine it was the other way around and Harris / Obama / Walz / etc. were using one of Epstein’s old planes. It would be a field day for fascist America.

[-] ReCursing@lemmings.world 5 points 2 months ago

No other evidence except for pictures, videos, flight logs, statements...

[-] geekwithsoul@lemm.ee 36 points 2 months ago

In the grand scheme of things, this doesn’t matter but it does demonstrate what an amateur hour his campaign is. So enjoy it for that reason if nothing else.

[-] rsuri@lemmy.world 35 points 2 months ago

So we've found Trump's least suspicious link to Epstein

[-] suction@lemmy.world 32 points 2 months ago

Watch out, a lot of right-wing trolls in this section trying to paint this as “nothing”. Just imagine it was Harris on the old Epstein plane. Yep.

JD? Why do you keep sniffing all the chairs on the plane?

[-] pivot_root@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Bad, JD! Bad! Get off of the couch, dammit.

[-] ATDA@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

Phew I bet Vance is SWEATING thinking of the history of those cushions.

[-] hardcoreufo@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

That's fucking weird Donnie.

[-] rayyy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

The orange kid rapist was probably sniffing the seats too.

[-] vegeta@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Just like old times….ohhh the memories

[-] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

His supporters won’t care even if Jeffrey himself was on plane with Donny

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago

Makes sense. "Stick to what you know" is a solid strategy.

So, after Epstein sold it, it was supposed to be destroyed on moral grounds? Or what. It's a fuckin plane.

[-] todd_bonzalez@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

It's just crazy optics to be flying around in a plane formerly owned by a prolific billionaire pedophile known for his exclusive flights to his sex trafficking island, when you're the guy who "allegedly" used to rape children with that same pedo, and are literally on those infamous flight logs.

Trump ~~spent the weekend flying around America on a plane~~ previously owned by Jeffrey Epstein

[-] 5in1k@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

He probably needs the smell of it to get off the dirty fuck.

[-] penquin@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

He was probably sniffing the seats for some Epstein farts. 😂

[-] Camzing@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Everyone enjoys a little nostalgia every once in a while to bring back old memories.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

It's like when your dad had that one recliner that had a cushion molded to his ass.

[-] RangerJosie@sffa.community 4 points 2 months ago

*for the 8th time that we know about.
