It is a measure of desperation on the part of Democrats they continue to cleave to the idea there will be some one thing, one deux ex machina event which will bring Trump down and rid the Republic of this vexatious idol without the Democrats having to actually beat him in battle.
But it doesn't matter if Jeffrey Epstein sent an email saying Trump had sex with a "victim," at his house. It wouldn't matter if a video of Trump having sex with a fourteen year old girl surfaced. Or with a fourteen year old boy. Or having sex and then shooting them on 5th Avenue.
Trump is occasionally correct: He said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and people would still elect him President. In fact, he wound up doing something very close to that: He exhorted his MAGA mob to attack the Capitol and then, after they did it, he can pardon those captured and nobody blinks an eye.
Any text message, email, video will be denied. Fake news. Deep fake. Black's white today. Good's bad today. Day's night today.
His die hard MAGA fans will forgive him anything. He's an imperfect vessel doing God's work. Or he's just a man's man. He talks like us. Humble yourself before them and they will do anything you ask--Frank Underwood.
Behold, the Real Problem
This America, man.

Bill Clinton was accused of rape was he not Mad Dog? I
ReplyDeleteMad Dog,
ReplyDeleteEven Hitchens, speaking eloquently from the grave, believes the chances Trump will finally be held accountable are slim. I hold out some small hope that the Epstein affair could finally bring the silent dog if not to justice to public humiliation…It’s the only thing thus far that has peeled off some supporters…Of course public humiliation could lead to the start of WWWIII so guess I must be careful what I wish for…

Ms. Maud,
ReplyDeleteAll anti MAGA's hope there is some magical thing in the "Epstein papers" which can bring Trump down. I cannot imagine what that could possibly be.
First of all, what constitutes the papers? Would they not be immediately destroyed if they held any real damaging stuff--like Epstein himself? No matter what they say, e.g. Trump and Epstein were lovers. Trump and Putin were lovers. Trump ran a pedophile trafficking operation out of Mar-a-Lago, whatever, not a single MAGA fan would credit it--it would all be ipso facto, fake news.
As Lincoln once said
"If the end brings me out all right, what's said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference."
Which is a way of saying, testimony and what is said about you will not save you. It's the results of what you do and what happens despite what you do which determines your fate.
Trump will be President in 2028.
If you want to dream up a deux ex machina, dream of the Democrats winning the House and the Senate (mathematically nearly impossible) and then impeaching and convicting him. That is the only way to remove him, not scandal or his own malfeasance.
