    He wanted to celebrate. Had to order “The Usz…” (How does one spell a colloquial shortening of “usual”, anyway?)

      Eh. Epstein is a particularly slimy and self serving person. You can’t take anything he said in his emails at face value. For example, what exactly do you think the metric for that would be in Epstein’s point of view? Obviously it’s not fucking kids because Epstein never expressed any remorse or even acknowledgement that what he did was bad. I hate Trump too but Epstein isn’t exactly a reliable narrator.

      It gets worse. Epstein’s business partner, Jean Luc Brunel, was described by John Casablancas as a man who always had date rape drugs on hand.

      John Casablancas was a man who once bragged to the New Yorker Magazine (in a 1988 cover story) about seducing a 14 year old who won a rigged contest that he ran for Elite Model Management.

      Trump then hosted that contest and then signed his then 13 year old daughter up to be a model, directly “mentored” by Casablancas.

        Just remember the republican motto, “It’s not gay if they’re girls.”

        Also, “It’s not gay if both dicks aren’t out at the same time.”

        And, “It’s not gay if only one guy cums.”

        And, “It’s not gay if it’s non-consensual.”

        And, “It’s not gay if I’m the top.”

        And, “It’s not gay if I’m a power bottom.”

        And, “It’s not gay if the person filming it is laughing.”

        And, “It’s not gay if it’s in the airport bathroom.”

        It’s a long list, but invaluable to those that are questioning their sexual identity, especially lawmakers.

    “Right” in this context indicates temporal proximity and not correctness, BTW.

      Took me a second to realize how it was meant to be interpreted.

      The fact that we could plausibly interpret it as trump calling him correct about something in some way though is still immensely disappointing about our reality.

    Surely phone records could end up being subpoenaed. Would love to see how frequently and when these fucks were talking to who.

      The orange mobster railed about Nixon not destroying evidence. He will either alter, delete, or destroy evidence, maybe even manufacture fake timelines.
