I get the sense this was announced to hopefully distract from the Epstein uproar. After all, when was the last time Trump admitted weakness > **[Trump underwent vascular testing because of leg swelling: White House](https://abc11.com/post/trump-had-vascular-testing-because-leg-swelling-bruising-white-house/17165622/)** > > The testing showed results in the normal limit, Leavitt said. ---

Let’s hear it for embolisms. This lying piece of shit is desperate to quash the Epstein furor. The more lies he tells about it, the more he blames presidents from three terms ago, the more guilty he looks. Hoax my ass you fucking pedophile. ---

> [@MrAtoz](#): > > One of the things that most astonishes me about Trump is how he has managed to take a party that was once dedicated to laissez-faire capitalism, and get that party to go all in on high tariffs, and on the government determining what products individual corporations should and should not manufacture. Not to mention previously Hawkish on Russia. ---
