Thread 186708
In the RHP link above, I discussed Trump's connections with Epstein, over the span of two different threads. Now we find out that Trump's own political adviser, Steve Bannon, coached Epstein during a series of interviews about his child-sex trafficking:
https://www.theguardian.com/books/2021/sep/13/steve-bannon-jeffrey-epstein-cbs-interview-michael-wolff-book
This was in 2019, while Trump was still president.
Why this matters: In addition to multiple connections mentioned in thread above (and the other thread linked in that OP), Trump used his position as president to fire Epstein's prosecutor. This means that Trump impeded an investigation into Epstein that could've implicated Trump, as well have convicted Epstein.
This is the guy the GOP has is setting up to run again in 2024.
Read through the RHP links if you need a refresher. Among the many things included, is the fact that Trump hired Epstein's lawyer to be his Labor Secretary; a man who not only helped give Epstein a drastically reduced sentence for child-sex charges, but as Labor Secretary, eliminated a law designed to fight child sex trafficking.
Again: this is who the GOP wants to run in 2024: Trump, a man who is not only surrounded by criminals, but also used the presidency to protect convicted child-sex traffickers.
To review:
1) Trump and Epstein were friends, shown in videos of them partying together back in 1992
2) Epstein conducted recruitment of underage girls for sex trafficking at Trump's Mar-A-Lago
3) In 1994, Both Trump and Epstein have lawsuit accusing them of raping a 13 year old, dismissed only due to filing errors
4) Trump hires a man responsible for Epstein receiving a drastically reduced sentence for child sex trafficking, to be Trump's Labor Secretary
5) Trump's Labor Secretary, Alex Acosta, slashes funds to fight child sex trafficking by 80 percent.
6) Trump is also connected to Epstein's girlfriend and accomplice, Maxwell.
7) Trump has connections to Prince Andrew and fired the lead investigator into Prince Andrew's dealings with Epstein
8) Trump's own political advisor coached Epstein during a series of interviews about his peodophelia.

10) Flight logs reveal Trump on Epstein's jet multiple times

Articles for all this in the RHP link from the OP.
@shallow-blue saidWhy is that deflecting? Oh, because you do not want to admit that a Dem former president is just as guilty as Trump.
Deflect, deflect, deflect.
Clinton had vague "ties". Your butt-boy is his close buddy, even closer than Randy Andy.
@Eladar
Ah, that makes it ok for Trump to be in Epstein's orbit, if not duplicating that deal on his own.
So if they are both guilty of sexual misconduct with minors, THROW THEM BOTH IN JAIL. I have no problem with that.
@wildgrass saidYes, that was my response. I am still sick and he did not say throw Bill in Jail, I missed it.
He put "throw them both in jail" in all caps and that's your response?
