Not his maga base, not a delay-able justice system, or the Supreme Court, not a friendly Congress, not any of our allies, certainly not Russia or China. Not public opinion. No one in his cabinet can fall on this sword for him.
He's put himself in a trap of his own making, and the whole world (including the Iranians) know it.
I'm not going to rejoice exactly, because a lot of people have died already and more are going to. But he did this to escape Epstien, and this isn't an escape, and he's realizing this trap might be just as bad. He's caught, he fucking knows it, and there's nothing he can do. I'm not rooting for the Iranians, but NOW is when we need everybody in Congress that's not a 'foreign policy wonk' to start back in on epstien and ICE and everything else, because now he CANNOT escape the traps he's set for himself.
Lets finish him off.
'Let's kill him PROPERLY, this time.'

One of the few things that drives people from cults is an inability to hold the insane contradictions in their heads as blame shifts around to meet the "crisis du jour"
In this case, the Trump-Epstein illicit sex, blackmail and money-laundering scandal, the biggest crime operation in recorded history, has just about reached the breaking point. It doesn't get much more serious than war, and could get worse.

But he won't REALLY finished until that Trump Stake is well done.

While it was a messy operation to extract from that mess of a fucked up war, Biden did the best he could
the orange pedo? we'd still be there and he would have probably armed the Afghan resistance as well.

(4,045 posts)... Biden had to follow the half-assed plan that trump had initiated, though he delayed it long enough to establish at least some safeguards. Of course, the shitstain media focused on the delay as if it was a mistake. There is no pit in Hell deep enough or vile enough for the billionaires that poisoned our once-free press. I hope they all meet their ends on an accelerated schedule.

(6,280 posts)Eh. I would like to see Pete Hegseth a try.
Martin Eden
(15,552 posts)He's never paid any REAL consequences for his long record of crimes and crazy shit, got elected president TWICE, and the Rethug majority Congress still refuses to hold him accountable for anything.
He just lies, denies reality, makes shit up, and when necessary blames others.
Which is not to say reality won't eventually bite him in his orange shit-encrusted ass, but I highly doubt he admits that to himself. He believes he is supreme ruler and can do anything he wants, and get away with it as he always has.

(77,169 posts)True Story. You read this on the internet so you know it is true.
An electrician I know in Columbus, OH was doing some work on the east coast/NYC area and
was doing any needed work for an Italian American business organization and when he 1st got
there he was told by members of that crew to never do any business with Trump because he
is a crook. When you have members of the mob telling you that somebody is crook believe it.
Trump should have been in the U.S. super max prison years ago. We need to hang Trump around
the Republicans neck.
