Voted in a dozen GOP presidential primaries before Trump voted in his first, but to MAGA I’m a liberal, a Commie, a leftist and a “RHINO.”

So far Trump’s danced around the question of a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. He has the authority, he says, but he hasn’t been asked. If Trump had 𝙖𝙣𝙮 character, he’d announce he absolutely would never pardon any convicted child sex trafficker. But that requires character.

Trump’s beefing that banks denied him from opening accounts. Reputational risks are relevant to banks’ business operations. A convicted felon with multiple business bankruptcies, hundreds of lawsuits, and having had to pay millions out in settlements isn’t an ideal customer.

Where’s the subpoena for Trump? He’s the one not releasing the Epstein files. He’s the one who sent the No. 2 DOJ official to personally interview Ghislaine Maxwell. He’s the one who oversees the system that moved Maxwell to a minimum security facility. Where’s his subpoena?.

Part of Virginia Giuffre’s statement: “Without question, Jeffrey Epstein was a terrible pedophile, but I never would have met Jeffrey Epstein if not for you. For me, and for so many others, you opened the door to hell, and then, Ghislaine, like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, you.

South Carolina’s Nancy Mace is running for governor, calling herself “Trump in high heels.”.I thought Trump was Trump in high heels.

In late June Musk donated $5 million to Trump’s super PAC. He also gave $5 million each to PAC’s devoted to electing more GOP senators and representatives. Apparently all that talk about Musk starting a new political party was just that, all talk.

You can’t say Fox News isn’t doing its best to placate Trump. CNN’s Brian Stelter has been keeping track and reports that for the week Fox mentioned Sydney Sweeney 766 times and Epstein 53 times. Fair and balanced, as Fox claims.

From an Epstein victim: “To learn that our own president has utilized thousands of agents to protect his identity and these high-profile individuals is monumentally mind-blowing. That is their focus? Wow!”.Trump cares nothing for victims. Protecting himself is paramount.

When will Trump or Blanche or Bondi or Patel or Bongino or someone in the administration tell the American people why convicted child trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell was transferred to a minimum security facility? .What did she do to warrant that treatment?.

Jack O’Donnell, former president of the Trump Plaza casino, spoke with Trump about adultery. “He said, ‘if you’re ever caught cheating, you deny, deny, deny, and wear them out, and they will believe you eventually because you’ve denied so long.”.Trump does that about everything.
