Morning Joe' Cuts Off Dem About Jaw-Dropping Trump-Epstein Claim

(snip)

Characterizing the White House’s attitude toward those potentially implicated in the Epstein files, Moulton said, “If you are one of the people like him who took advantage of young girls with Jeffrey Epstein, then we’re going to sort of make that go away.”

This immediately made Scarborough jump in.

“We don’t have evidence he took advantage of young girls with Jeffrey Epstein,” said the 62-year-old MSNBC host, defending the president.

“Right, right,” replied Moulton with a smirk. “Just, common sense be damned.”

are probably worse than what’s in report, even though I know trump was involved if only by shutting his eyes.

Point is, I’m fine with them hiding report because suspicion is hurting trump. Add in refusal to issue report, and suspicions get worse.

In court depositions Trump IS NAMED as part of the raping of YOUNG girls (plural!). In another a young girl said Trump raped her, slapped he around when she protested. After, he, like Epstein, threatened to have her killed if she spoke up. Other girls confirmed that.

The ends justify the means. If Trump has Epstein in his sordid past, who cares when Trump is gonna bring their true God to rule and sometimes you need the help of these people to bring about the change they want to see. Trump is gonna make it happen.

4. Hardly jaw-dropping... what a dumb headline. Trump was freaking accused in a court filing of raping a 13 yr old!
