      Exactly this. When you factor that most sexual assault isn’t reported due to fear, retribution, or embarrassment, these numbers could be in the hundreds for all we know.

    Good of the media to finally take an interest in Trump’s connections to Epstein well into his second term niw that he will never face an election again.

      I wouldn’t put it past the GOP to run him in 2028, and scotus to wave their hands for this exception to the rule.

        I love your optimism thinking that there will be elections in 2028, let alone anything resembling fair elections

          I think he’s going to do Russian style elections, but he also has the martial law route.

          But hopefully he just dies.

          Sure there will. Newsom be nominated, pick Gillibrand as his running mate, get credibly accused of sexual assault by multiple women in late September, and lose to Don Jr. by such a margin that the brazen, massive election fraud by Junior’s team turns out to have been entirely redundant.

          They kinda HAVE to let him run, as they’ve already loaded all the results into the machines.

      They’ll defend him no matter what. Even he said he could “stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and [he] wouldn’t lose voters”. But it’s totally not a cult! 🙄

        It’s because they want to do the same.

        If Trump said, “Stand in the middle of 5th avenue and give people free covid shots” his base would turn on him.

        Trump is a symptom, not the cause, of the alt-right.
