Look... it's a ballroom. It's definitely not a burial site for documents used to mix the concrete.

It's a very transparent corruption tool. When Trump was elected, he and his ghouls went around with the hat to get "donations" from all of the large companies. Especially the ones in big tech donated huge amounts for what turned out to be a very sad inauguration ceremony. After Trump gifted all of them huge tax benifits and removing restrictions and regulations, the time had come for the hat to go around again. But you can't just donate directly to the president, then even the dumbest of the dumb would cry foul. So like the shitty landlord Trump has always been he destroyed part of the White House and announced plans for a huge new construction project. This allowed all of the assholes to once again "donate" to this project. A project that has caused a lot of damage to a monument in order to "own the libs" and has raked in millions in donations, but has done little else. All of this money is being pocketed by Trump and his goons.

As with many terrible things, it's all out in the open and yet America does nothing. Checks and balances indeed.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's called "Money Laundering" and the Real Estate Developer version of it is one of the few things that Trump is actually an expert at. Because at his core, he's a criminal.

STOP making Child Rape POLITICAL!

[–] Dojan@pawb.social 38 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

They don't call it child rape, they call it sex with women who at the time were underage. Something like that.

[–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

For this one, they won't even call it that. "It can't be sex without penetration" or something like that.

She should have bit it clean off. Missed opportunity there.

Maybe she did, and that's why Stormy thinks it looks like a toadstool

In fairness to her, his mushroom dick (according to Stormy Daniels the porn star to whom he paid hush money) is a very tiny target.

Like trying to grab at a splinter with your fingernails.

Literal victims being victimized doing more to punish Epstein associates than the US Govt.

I was relieved to see she was interviewed as an adult in 2019. Brave as a girl, brave as a woman.

Question:
How can a person who has these type of documents and accusations about them ever be allowed to run for any type of political position? Let alone become the president of a country (twice)?

[–] Xatolos@reddthat.com 18 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

It's because legally, having a criminal record doesn't disqualify you from running. There isnt anything preventing this. Most likely its to help prevent a minor mishap from long ago condemning your future abilities (otherwise, you'd have all sorts of small charges against every politician to destroy their career. It would make the worst blackmail material).

Now, morally why did enough people vote for him anyway is a whole different issue that I don't have an answer for.

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It's also so that someone can't weaponize law enforcement on their political opponents. So let's say you're president. You come after me on a bogus charge. I've now got a record. I can no longer run against you.

Morally, I agree entirely.

But you don't understand, the only other choice we had was a lady....

[–] MJKee9@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

Come on. That lady didn't believe exactly everything I believed. How could I vote for someone who is not only a female, but someone who didn't believe exactly what I believed!?!?

And she was black or something

And she might drag the entire country into a pointless war on a whim, just because she felt like it

Good portion of people don’t give a shit.

I’ve spend the past three years trying to get people to investigate the sexual and physical abuse of children in Oklahoma, including some child trafficking. No one cares or wants to do anything about it. More people than we want to admit are okay with children being raped and abused as long as they are a certain type of child (foster kids usually.)

Journalists need to bring back the good old art of monstering.

Do you have bite scars on your penis, Mr. President!?

This woman sounds like she has extremely good judgement. Maybe she should be president.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Let's be fair, 95% of the human population are better suited to be president than that obese stumbling wobbling tub of genital warts.

EPSTEIN talked about blackmailing people in front of [redacted]. [redacted] was confident TRUMP knew EPSTEIN blackmailed people because she heard EPSTEIN and TRUMP talking about it. [redacted] stated she knew TRUMP had illegal building permits. She heard him (TRUMP) talking about washing money through casinos.

I wonder if this is true, about Trump washing money.

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 22 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It's the only explanation I can figure for how he bankrupted a casino

As much as I'm sure that child (now woman) never wants to be known publicly, I nevertheless want to give her the keys to whatever city she chooses. And free therapy for life.

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It’s wild to me that the allegations are about what happened after the bite, when in order for it to happen there must have been coercion and sexual/assault leading to it.

Wow! What a piece of absolute shit. I always knew he was garbage, but this ... wow.

Also, good for her. I hope she drew blood from that little pecker. And I hope she's still alive and doing well. The world needs more people like her.

Anyone else read "Doc" as "Doctor" before realizing it was "Document"? I had a flicker of hope they'd be a corroborating witness.

Someone should check for scar tissue.

Not me, I ain't got the stomach for looking up under that naked stomach.
