This is what's amazing to me.
He went on the Howard Stern show and boasted about barging into the dressing rooms of the Miss Teen USA pageant, talked about how hot his teenage daughter was, and pushed his way into a softcore Playboy video and none of his voters thought there might be a problem.
He does all the things they want to do as well.
He also does the things that many of them do. Trump isn’t the only (child) rapist predator, he’s just the most powerful one.
If conservatives gave a damn about kids and sex crimes, these lists should have caused enough public rage to burn the party to the ground.
It didn't. So republican are unassailably the party of sex offenders and those who support sex offenders.
They always have been
Crying like a little bitch about it on social media makes me believe the exact opposite of what he says. He was probably customer 0.
implying the whole thing was his idea, and given his ties to the russian mob and what they do, he maybe got the idea sometime while he was in a hotel room with a hidden camera he didn't know about
What's so funny about this is that Pam Bondi and Trump paraded conservative influencers all around and made them hold up pieces of paper labeled "THE EPSTEIN FILES" and had them all go on their social medias and claim that they read it.
And now they're saying that they don't exist and never existed.
I actually feel bad for their base for how stupid the Trump admin thinks they are
I would feel bad for their base for how stupid the Trump admin thinks they are if the admin were actually wrong about that. So far the base has proven them right over and over and over again- they truly are as stupid as the admin thinks they are.
It's almost worse than that. I swear, some of them take a perverse pride in being led all around the political landscape like a dog with a shiny red ball. The discussions I've had where people happily and excitedly admit that Trump was completely lying to them and just hungrily accept the new story as undeniable fact is wild and impossible for me to wrap my head around.
Their base hasn't done anything to make me think they're not that stupid.
Because Trump is a child fucker.
Considering neither party seemed to want this info shared I believe we all need to know what was in it.
Two Bills, a Trump, and a prince walk into a beauty pageant dressing room…
Two Bills… I had to figure out which of Clinton, Cosby and Gates you were talking about.
that would be a spicy leak, if someone did it
Turns out they aren’t a thing actually! So why does Tramp want us to forget it? Because they made it up and campaigned that they will release it! Biden administrtion already released the court docs, then Trumpo rereleased them except they had the pages redacted where his name&his wifes name was mentioned
What maga people don’t understand is that, when you’re rich, they just let you do it. That is literally the ethos of their patron saint on every level, for his entire life.
conservative podcast dipshits (conpodshits for short) have been bringing up 1984 for years and are short circuiting as their guy does the thing because they think george orwell was talking about communists
Love that as soon as his name got attached to Epstein, that he's shifted to damage control and trying to push this narrative that it's been a "radical Left" issue this whole time. And trying to get all his conspiracy people to move on to an election that at this point doesn't matter either way is just full panic.
They filled lawsuits all over the country that they had to withdraw because they had no evidence, yet continue to claim to be ready to release all the "evidence" they have anytime now for years. I think even his Supreme Court is going to find it hard to invent constitution law to back up their conspiracy theories. I would love to see them try though, make it televised, since they are just pissing away tax dollars anyway.
an election that at this point doesn’t matter either way
It distracts from the one before it and the one after it.
They don't need to invent law and Roberts et al know it. See, the thing about being on the Supreme Court is that aside from Congress impeaching you, there is no other recourse. Your entire decision could be written as "lol no" and unless Congress decides to impeach you, there's nothing anyone can do about the decision.
I just want to see reporters hound him with questions beginning with, "So when you raped those kids..."
Rapist tells group of mentally challenged people to forget about list of paedophiles.
Rich pedophiles vs deluded fascists, enabled by ideological genociders. USA 2025.
Trump is a pedo...
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
Wow, this sure is some in-depth reporting...
Although Trump appears in at least one video alongside Epstein at a party, the president has denied allegations that his name was in the files or that he had any direct connection to the disgraced financier.
"At least" one video, numerous photos, Trump describing Epstein as a 'Terrific guy who he had known for 15 years' and “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.” Epstein saying he was “Donald’s closest friend for ten years”....
But sure, let's just characterize it as 'They both attended the same party once.'
Conservatives in 2029: I never supported Trump, he is a Soros funded antifa plant.
No they will be convinced Trump was replaced or something about Elon and his brain chip
Can’t wait for Nuremberg trials #2
I urge them to fuck off and die.
Even if MAGA forgets, perhaps we shouldn't.
Well pack it in boys. The convicted criminal thats most likely implicated in a high profile child sex trafficking ring says "stop worrying about this list, there is no list and im certainly not on it"
I for one think we should believe this lying, cheating, gas lighting criminal. Biggest "trust me bro" in history
Guess why?
They have full control of them. Why not just take Trump's name out of them, then release? Seems like an easy way to get the Dems and have some GOP fall guys. Then the game is over.
But then you lose the support of the billionaire pedophile ring. That's the real reason why they will never be released.
I bet he does. The Orange Turd was a regular on the Lolita Express.
...and definitely don't pay attention to the little man behind the curtain!
world@world - still all US defaultism.
On the upside, it's like going to the circus every time when you open Lemmy and this circus doesn't have firebreathers, trapeze artists or lion tamers, it has clowns, only clowns.
PEDOnald will jingle his keys in a week and all the MAGAts will have forgotten about this.
Has anyone from Biden's admin come out and refuted Trump's DoJ's statements? They need to be on every conservative outlet that will give them a second of time talking how the documents existed before.
"These are not the files you are looking for..."
It's funny watching rapey getting ratioed on his own echo chamber platform.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
