Death by a thousand cuts?
The straw that broke the camel's back?
Whatever. Yes. Sure.
I don't even see how it's a scandal anymore. They've shoved so much other bs down our throats. I'm two weeks this will be gone too. He'll we KNEW this for ages. The first time he ran we knew this. It's doesn't matter. People have attention spans of gold fish. It's some Soviet era mind control shit. I'm just tired.
Yes, but don't help them dismiss it.
Yeah, we knew. The evidence has been out there forever. But the important but is that his base is waking up to this new evidence.
We've been dealing with this for years. They're just discovering it now. If we get yo vote again, that matters.
Yeah, they raped kids together. Fun times.
Isn't this all something we all already knew?
Only if you've been alive and paying attention.
The pictures of him perving on his daughter were out there.
He boasted of going into the dressing rooms of the Miss Teen USA pageant
Same situation. If you've been paying attention and breathing, this should have caught your attention. And yet...
MAGA movement is quite something. Citizens barely paying attention and only in Presidential election cycles hooked onto Trump. He was the guy that was going to punch the establishment in the face and give some back to the avg worker.
People actually dialed in knew this wasn't true, GOP didnt really care because he was their guy, and MAGA had media propaganda warping their minds.
Why is this such a big deal? Because now Trump looks like the establishment, they thought he would punch or bring down.
No but see, they can be friends and he can be in the files, but trust him, he's not like the others bro, he said so /s
Yeah that’s what bugs me, the evidence has always been there so I don’t see why this would be the line in the sand.
I guess what is special about this time is the shamelessness.
I'm glad some more people are turning on him. It's just weird. Like they voted for the face eating leopard, and he's just been eating faces for years, as expected, and then they're suddenly like "wait just a minute, this motherfucker has spots!?"
Will either a lot of people didn't know, cuz they don't pay attention, or they're lying to themselves so I say we keep saying it as often as possible until it's undeniable for everybody. All those pedophiles need to be brought to light. No matter which political party they donate to or are members of.
In 1993 Stacey Williams, then a professional model, visited Trump at Trump Tower with Epstein. On arrival, she would later tell the Guardian, Trump put his hands “all over my breasts”, waist and buttocks while Trump and Epstein smiled at each other, in what she believed was a “twisted game” between the two men.
“It became very clear then that he and Donald were really, really good friends and spent a lot of time together,” Williams said in 2024. Karoline Leavitt, then a spokesperson for Trump’s election campaign, described Williams’s accusations as “unequivocally false. It’s obvious this fake story was contrived by the Harris campaign.”
Bullshit Barbie is a soulless liar who should be pelted with rocks and garbage the rest of her life.

Mother fucker bragged about grabbing women by the pussy. I don’t see why any other parts of their body are off limits in his mind.
Like “Pussy’s fine but I draw the line at boobs and butt. That shit’s just weird.”
Dude’s a fucking sexual predator. He doesn’t have sexual assault “standards”.
Two pedos looking for their next victim.
You just brought back a memory from my clubbing days. The 2 guys looked like this, minus the jacket. They wouldn’t take no for an answer, and it was a pain in the ass to get away from them. I was wasted but I was also lucid when it counted.
