This dude is throwing everything to try to pretend he ain't a fucking pedophile in Epstein's list.

[–] ech@lemmy.ca 71 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

They're trying to insinuate that the accusations on them are of the same legitimacy of those they've been throwing at everyone for decades.

If their claims are rebuked as baseless, they'll call the claims against them baseless as well. If the claims against them are said to be substantiated, they'll point to their claims and suggest the same. It's the "tails I win, heads you lose" of a political scheme.

Almost forgot about the Epstein case there for a moment, except I didn't.

Will an AI make a video of him being innocent in the Epstein case, or is the technology still not that good?

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 63 points 10 months ago

I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that

Epstein’s best friend, convicted felon and adjudicated rapist Donald Trump, is a human trafficking child rapist.

The pedophile in chief is just spraying videos hoping something distracts people

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 55 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (3 children)

You mean the pedophile and convicted rapist, sexual assaulter , con man, incompetent businessman, fraudster, tax evader, and likely insurrectionist ?

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 29 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Weak attempt to distract. Stay focused folks. EPSTEIN FILES, RELEASE THEM.

[–] stinky@redlemmy.com 24 points 10 months ago

Correct.

Do not get distracted folks. He's on a mission to make you forget about Epstein.

Terry Crews' character in Idiocracy was non-satirically a better President at this point.

Just FYI. We in Europe are watching what you guys are up to and being super judgemental. Get your shit together.

[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 53 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Keep an eye on your own countries, you're not immune to right-wing populism.

Just FYI, you in Europe should spend more time learning how not to freak out the moment you invite a relatively small amount of Muslim people of color to live among you as refugees and start pushing boats back into the sea to drown. We watch your society start to break apart the moment it drifts even a tiny bit away from white ethnostates. Hungary and Poland fell before the US.

Don't get me wrong, we're a flaming dumpster fire right now, but it gets very tired very quickly listening to you people look down your noses at the US like your shit doesn't stink as you teeter to and from the brink of far right parties taking power every 3 years on a platform of "no Muslims in Country X." You're not wrong, but glass houses my guy. You judge us, but the rest of the world judges us both.

Do you know what I do when I go to bed? I sleep. Almost instantly. I don't lay there and stress and worry about what I did. I don't worry about how I'm percieved. I just sleep.

You can see by his actions that trump is a deeply troubled, deeply insecure, deeply stressed man. And I use the word "man" in the loosest of definitions.

Everything he's doing, from the CBS cancelations, to blocking the commanders stadium deal, to whatever this ai video bullshit is, it all screams of a man grasping at straws, desprate to change the topic.

Me? I have no desperation. What'ya guys wanna talk about?

Isn’t this against the no deepfakes law the cunt has been pushing

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 28 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yes and nothing will happen from it. News outlets squak. The cult laughs. The "libs" get angry. The government does nothing because even if they did this is a presidental action and he has immunity.

I can't believe how fucked everything is. I'm over it. I just want to survive with my family.

Another low effort attempt to distract feom the fact that this guy is100% in the Epstein files. The AI slop mess is just so very on brand like the distasteful Trump Gaza nonsense

So much power in the tiny pathetic hands of such a sad small petty weak-minded man. America projects weakness.

Trump, stop your nonsense and release the Epstein files!

Sorry Trump, you're still a pedophile.

[–] Acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org 25 points 10 months ago

so he openly stated that he doesn't agree with the statement that "no one is above the law" in an attempt to distract the people from him raping children?

[–] sqw@lemmy.sdf.org 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)

🤔 wasnt there recently some anti-deepfake legislation passed?

[–] queueBenSis@sh.itjust.works 19 points 10 months ago

well i guess someone must be above the law then

[–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)

"no one is above the law" it says... While Trump is literally acting like he's above the law and the supreme court allows it.
