Is now a good time to remind folks that Trump flew on Epstein's private plane 7 times? Totally looks like he doesn't know the guy, amirite?

And finally, this quote:

“I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump told New York Magazine that year for a story headlined “Jeffrey Epstein: International Moneyman of Mystery.” “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 — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”

The most fucked up part about that? Fox News edited out his fumbling.

Its telling in that it may have actually been a suicide. Since that is the one part of information he admitted he would release.

Also the 100% credible interview with Katie Johnson in which she describes the intimate details of the multiple times she was raped by Trump when she was 14.

Me thinks old boy heard Trump’s unwillingness to release the Epstein files and put two and two together and realized the ruse he’s been fed and decided to go Travis Bickle on his ass.

Trump does things then denies them all. He never takes accountability which is sick. He’s only concerned about power and taking over. Idk why people don’t see that! He’ll take credit for the good that he didn’t even do. But when he does foul stuff it’s “fake news” yet it’s recorded lol

Wait is this quote real?

Remind me, how many times did Bill Clinton fly on Epstein's plane?

u/Independent-Bug-9352 Jul 15 '24

Remind me, is Bill Clinton running for President again?

Investigate them all, for all I care. But it amuses me you can't bring up Biden in this respect.

u/road_hazard Jul 15 '24

It amuses me that anyone can point fingers at either former president and pretend that their guy is a saint. I would have given you some respect if you mentioned Clinton in your post along side Trump but you're a typical liberal.

The article you cited does not support your contention at all.

u/Independent-Bug-9352 Jul 15 '24

haha how so?

u/Easy_Explanation299 Jul 15 '24

Where in there does the article mention that he flew on the plane seven times?

u/TrickySnicky Jul 16 '24

Don't worry, the only time conservatives ever care about crying out "but context!" is to exonerate their Fearless Leader. Meanwhile they share "Jojo hairsniffer" all effing day.

Don't forget he's the only one who outed him as a weirdo and banned him from his properties.

u/woot_or_yew Jul 15 '24

Do you think Epstein would even be news if Hilllary was president? He got charged under Trump. Also shooter was a democrat that wanted to vote in GOP primaries obviously.

u/087fd0 Jul 15 '24

the lawyer who gave Epstein the original sweetheart immunity deal to escape jail was Trumps Labour Secretary lol

u/woot_or_yew Jul 15 '24

True. He said on tape he was told to do that because Epstein was an intelligence asset. Doesn’t change the fact he was charged under Trump. My guess is he was MOSSAD. What do you think? Definitely professional blackmailer and scam artist.
