Dear God. It just gets worse. And it’s not close to the lowest the will go…
What’s the difference between trump and Calvin from ‘Calvin and Hobbes’?
One is a vacuous toddler who shits his diaper 5 times a day, and the other is a fictional child in a comic strip.
The difference is that Calvin makes sense. Calvin Ball makes more sense than Trump.
Damn, I wish Trump was the fictional one.
Ah. Schrodinger’s Files…
Baffle 'em with bullshit. Trumps business model, now presented from the Oval Office.
This is confirmation, if there was any doubt, that the Epstein files are juicy and incriminating. Pass the popcorn.
Yep, and I’m guessing that the previous administration didn’t release the files because of the all-encompassing incrimination contained therein.
But just a guess.
And if Obama wrote them, you know they will be literate, well-written, grammatically correct, and entertaining. With big words, too. Bring 'em on!
I have a mental image of Trump as Daffy Duck, exploding with rage and shouting “IT’S A LIE! He’s Jack! My name is … Aloysius!”
Oh, you’re Jack all right, and you know it because it is a fact.
One of many, many things I don’t understand…
There can’t be just one paper copy of this “list” that somehow got CYA shredded.
Why hasn’t somebody leaked it? Years ago?
(Sorry if this has been asked up-thread)
It’s a paper list? Do we know that?
There are probably a dozen people that have copies of it. Digitally.
Anybody in the admin while simultaneously disloyal enough to leak is probably at risk of getting outed pretty quickly given the relatively few people who have full access. That’s a risk to be weighed, and I’m not convinced any principles these people putatively possess are sufficient to overcome their self-preservation instinct.
Ken White (“Popehat”) is covering this story closely, including the blatant violations of the professor’s due process being committed by the fascists:
Not even Donald would believe that THAT one would work again.
As for Obama being the supposed author of the Epstein files: in addition to the problem of Trump being the President when the bulk of the files were being collected by the FBI (Epstein was arrested and jailed in 2019), there is also the issue of why Bill Barr (or other Trump appointee) would have accepted files “made up” to harm Donald, from Obama.
I mean, it’s going to be a hard sell for even the most dedicated conspiracy theorists.
And what became of the files when Donald ceased being President? Common sense suggests that they might have been heavily mucked-about-with before Merrick Garland could get his own hands on them…
Also Merrick Garland would need to get his thumb out of his ass first.
I don’t see how this part is a problem for him.
The number of idiots “outraged” that Obama was golfing on the morning of 9/11 is truly astounding.
I tend to agree, though we should expect those of other views (of MG) to weigh in.
True, the existence of so much idiocy does aid Trump in making his fiction stick.
I thought his pastime of choice was basketball…
He used really, really big clubs on the court to do that.
