Not content to destroy the United States, trump meddles in politics of Argentina, Brazil, et al. Guess donnie has done SO MUCH damage to US, he now goes after South America, Central America, Mexico, the entire hemisphere; that is when he's got time enough from shredding laws and morality at home! Get rid of this meddlesome devil! (No priest!)
I’d love it if Trump were “sabotaged” at the UN as petty as those moments were. What this truly stupid and blind man doesn’t understand is that his biggest saboteur is himself.
What a perfectly presented historical precedent for what we are experiencing. So, instead of 1930s Germany, it is 1930s Peru we are following. Thanks for this, Bill. I had no idea.

In fairness I can't understand what all the fuss with the Epstein Files is about either. We know he's a pedophile and a sex abuser, we have witness statements from credible witnesses and multiple women who have come forward to that effect. More evidence that Trump is a pedophile is literally just gilding a lily, and its not going to change MAGAs opinion of them, nor will it change the churches across the midwest singing his praise, it will just mildly strain the relationship between the two, just as credible accusations of sex abuse against pastors and leadership across the midwest strain, but don't break bonds between those communities and their leaders, ala Roy Moore, Dennis Hastert, Gym Jordan, and more.
Its past time for the rest of us that AREN'T MAGA to accept that this is who MAGA is, and just because we can prove that their leaders are frauds isn't going to change their opinion. Proving their leaders are rapists isn't going to change their opinion. Proving their leadership is made up of child molesters isn't going to change their opinion. Its past time for us to realize that their opinion should only have value as a credible example of what NOT to do.
The Epstein Files is an unfortunate situation where the political side that is supposedly "fact-based" has gotten itself caught in the same type of conspiracy-theorizing that is normally engaged in by those on the MAGA side.
People appear to have forgotten that the Biden Justice Department had full access to the Epstein Files, and if there was anything at all incriminating against Trump in the Files, then *Trump would have been charged* while Biden was in office.
Clearly, whatever is in the Files related to Trump wouldn't stand-up to scrutiny in a court-of-law, meaning that it will have zero effect in convincing even a single MAGA supporter to change their views about Trump.
You are making three critically mistaken assumptions:
1. Republicans would have allowed the Epstein Files to become public, or publicized, or not impeached Biden for allowing them to do so. This is false. We know this is false because back in 2016 they extorted Obama the same way about the fact that Trump was on Putins payroll during the election. Democrats, especially Democrats who can read the news, would have gone along with it too, and no one has EVER wanted Kamala Harris in the oval office, not even her own district.
2. That Merrick Garland, Biden's handpicked AG, was working primarily on his behalf. Merrick Garland was a Republican through and through, and he was only nominated as a dare to Mitch McConnell to get him to not even consider a person McConnell himself had suggested as a conservative SCOTUS nominee. Obvious McConnell took the dare and won. You can tell this is true again by the fact that Garland missed every moment or intention when investigating Trump could and should have been taken, and either nixed the investigations (as he did the J6th investigation) or pushed people off the investigation (as he did with the Epstein Files and Epsteins murder). Biden chose to take a hands off approach to the DOJ because he believed that the law still mattered, even despite the overwhelming evidence that it didn't, and hadn't since he was still a VP, and not senile.
3. That Republican voters would care that Trump is a child molester. Its a foregone conclusion he's a child molester. All of his friends and everyone who's spent time with him socially knows he's a child molester. Republicans do not care. Its not the first, the second, the third, or the fourth time Republicans have publicly defended child molesters both in media and in courts of law. They could publish the tapes of Trump having sex with underage girls on YouTube with time and date stamps and give them to labs that specialize in analyzing video (assuming they exist, I'm nearly certain the DOJ destroyed them in the first Trump term) and Republicans would still defend them. Mostly because most of them are also child molesters, at least the ones that can afford to be.
Trump's speech at the UN was a disaster. Letting all the world leaders know how he could of built a better more elegant UN building. Complaining about the escalator, teleprompter and such. What a wimp. Then he ranted about all the world leaders deplorable countries and they are just a pack of losers or something to that affect. Complained about the Muslim mayor of London England. The world leaders sat politely and just stared into space while he ranted on for about an hour ,while his wet diaper was chaffing at his buttock. He claims he got good reviews . Where?? I believe he is calling for an investigation due to the three pronged sabotage..
Farmers are very angry about Argentina because they dropped their tariffs on agriculture and the Chinese bought soybeans from them and Trump has not come through for them yet. Farmers have been hit by Trump's immigration raids, equipment replacement tariffs, and the lack of a soybean purchase from China.
"But she [Lindsey Halligan] did have one key qualification, the key qualification: She is a total Trump loyalist." I am constantly reminded that not only is being a loyalist required, but so is being an individual who has no idea of their own qualifications, or lack thereof. These are not people who look in a mirror, ever.
$20 billion for Argentina, another $30 bn for farmers cut out of the Chinese market by tariffs and undercut by soybeans and other crops coming out of Argentina. But of course we could spare millions (not BILLIONs) to feed starving kids or help keep AIDS at bay in Africa. MAGA makes racist cultists who claim to be patriots. Never realized how useful dual citizenship (US/Irish) would have been. Should have pursued that earlier.
What are the odds that, if someone submitted the names of UN escalator operators, UN teleprompter operators, and UN sound technicians (or a package of "all UN technical support") for a Nobel Prize, the Nobel Committee would do the right thing?
He had someone run ahead and turn the escalator off. He's that kind of person. He wants to destroy the institution.

This fugging guy. Tylenol caused the escalator to stop.

Breaking news: Comey indicted by grand jury.

uh...Duh...
Sorry sir, they couldn't hear you or there would have been thunderous applause!
Duh!
