An article I read, sorry, no cite, said that a number of the injured that declined Trump visits did so out of “the severity of the injuries” Some did flat out refuse to have a Trump visit. They were so desperate for a grateful response that two patients who had already left the hospital came back, with their famililes, so they could get the pictures with Trump. ---

Somebody down there must like him, or at least be doing his infernal best to delay the day when he’ll arrive to lower the tone of Hell. I think this is exactly right. Won’t someone please think of the poor demons. The devil must be saying, “Jesus\*, it’s bad enough that I have to spend eternity with my lower body encased in ice, listening to the wailing of the damned and with nothing to drink but light beer, but damn, I have to put up with that fucker too!” \*) Obviously in this case, Lucifer would be using it as a first name and not an expletive. ---

> [@Steve\_MB](#): > > People familiar with how financial dealings work have proposed the theory that Epstein’s wealth is based on trapping marks in pedophilic honeypots and forcing them to make “investments” that give Epstein a fat cut. So I have read. Trump: - Dumb as the day is long on an Alaskan summer. - Narcissistic as can be. - An ego as fragile as a mirrored disco ball. - Wealthy. How wealthy no one knows. Money that just disappears is common. - Shady as a rain forest. - Has a thing for younger women. In other words. A perfect mark for Epstein. But then, we all know this. Did it happen? We may never know. ---

The people caring for the baby are Trump supporters, so that’s why this child was brought back for the photo op. Just to add context. ---
