And keep in mind: the people who USUALLY support his conspiracies (the biden crime family, the stolen election, benghazi, et al.) are working against him. They're demanding he release the files.

Sure he's still got social media: but his cult isn't taking him at his word on this.

Just like he wants to change all the bases that were named after Confederates back (though I think the only one of those that's going through is the one that found someone else with the same last name as the treasonous piece of jive it used to be named after).

It's just such an amazing thing to have a stodgy old codger in the White House. "I just don't agree with the decision that Washington made for themselves for their own reasons and I'll be a lot more comfortable if they just go back to what I am used to"

He's going to lead it up to the only way they'll get the new stadium in DC, that he's totally going to take over managing just like he'll do in New York, is if they change the name back.

Ironbite-cause he thinks he's the God Emperor of Mankind after all.

But he would go for that. Because that means the kids can work on Fridays instead, and the capitalism machine needs more wage slaves, not educated masses.

Which is yet another out-of-touch-old-person idea, because in reality the machine needs less and less people all the time, between increased reliance on automation and the dwindling amount of unique products being produced.

JANGLE THE KEYS HARDER DAMNIT! THEY'RE STILL TALKING ABOUT EPSTINE!



Ironbite-WHY WON'T THIS WORK!?

so glad we're burning gallons of fresh water and air for this technology.
Of course Trump is thrilled to have this technology at his disposal. Think about how many dictators around the world would have given both their legs to have the power to deepfake convincing video of anything they want. Even total control of the media only lets you control what the public doesn't see.

And he probably thinks it looks as convincingly real as the MS13 "tattoos" on Kilmar Ábrego García's fingers.

A Facebook friend and retired coworker posted a meme today asking if Obama is going to prison. I tried off and on today to think of a thoughtful, non-snarky response. I can't help but wonder if Trump is just kicking himself in the teeth right now. If referring Obama to the Justice Department DOES manage to satisfy people who wanted the Epstein files, then he really has to get an indictment, right? I was thinking at first that we'll just never hear the next step because they don't REALLY have a case, most likely, but I don't think the people who didn't forget Epstein are going to forget this. So is the Justice Department for real going to indict and have a judge throw the case out and then throw up their hands and say "We did everything we can, but activist judges, amiright?"

The other thing I pondered up was that I am used to thinking of Trump as a bumbling loudmouth who often doesn't even know what he is about to say, but I think when Trump was saying he would release the Epstein file, he absolutely knew he wasn't going to. He didn't change his mind on that. How do you get dumb enough to walk yourself into that, unforced, and then cover it with this?

He was probably counting on his cultists being stupid and forgetting about Epstein in the wake of all of his other catastrophes. Which, to be fair, is how he gets out of most of the problems he causes; start a new one and let the last one get buried because it's not news anymore. For whatever reason, though, this one keeps sticking around.

I think he didn't come across one that his base care about more, but now isn't he screwed? What can he come up with to distract them for THIS? And how many mid-term voters are NOT going to fall for the notion that the case against Obama was airtight, but the judges just saved him because he is their golden boy?

The only people falling for trumps jive was trumps cult in the first place: and trump has literally been jingling his keys like a ******* mad man for a week now and his base has been screaming back one word. "Epstein". Normally the turn around on maga hypocrisy is as fast as trump can lie, but they aren't letting this go. It's foundational to their ideology that trump was going to release the epstein files AND! (this part of why they won't let it go.) those files will list all the democrat pedophiles and destroy the left.

They want it because they've been told it'll be a ******* hit list.

And when it hits (cause there's too many people trying to get it out there now, by hook or by crook. Seriously, johnson started congresses vacation early so they wouldn't have to vote AGAIN about releasing it.) trump will go from "maga messiah, ender of democrats" to "Co-conspirator #1" and all their little maga brains will ooze out their ears. Thankfully, it's a low volume affair.

Nothing is going to happen to obama, between the fact that they don't have anything and TACO: Barrack won't even have to get off the couch for this.

My wife pointed out that there is an earlier offramp than I imagined. A judge will have to approve a warrant and they aren't going to do that, so Obama won't even get arrested. But that is going to make this DEEPLY unsatisfying for MAGA. I think it could be worse than if he had never thought of this distraction at all.

As for the list eventually getting out, they really might have deleted it. I'm not really clear on even what the list is, but I am pretty sure they can just destroy it and it is likely they already did it. What they could NOT stop would be a large group of the victims coming out and talking.
