    does he even have actual friends? or are they just being used (then cast aside, often under a bus) or people using him…

      That was essentially Epstein’s conclusion: he is friendly with people but has no actual friends.

        Given his… work, it’s no wonder people who “befriended” him would jump ship and abandon him at the first opportunity

      I used to think Giuliani was. They had been around the same social circles, and Trump overlooked a lot of Giuliani’s failures during his four years. The collapse of the 2020 election cases seems to have ended that, though.

        It wouldn’t surprise me if they were more colleagues under Putin than friends, even at the best of times.

        Like you’d figure Rudy would have brought more competence to the table if he was just trying to help his friend out. I really got the sense that he was only doing what he did in 20/21 because his back was against the wall and disobeying would have resulted in worse effects than torpedoeing his career and the legal trouble.

        And my guess for the consequences would be the release of a video that is similar to his scene in Borat 2, only without Borat rushing in to stop it.

      Jesus Christ. Someday that woman will be able to speak freely. The things I imagine she’ll say…

        You mean when he finally dies and she inevitably releases a tell-all book to capitalize on the opportunity?

    Not surprised at all. The Orange Turd is trying to bring everyone down to his terrible level of existence.

    Wait, so the pizzagate/qanon bullshit was just the radical extremist terrorist group that pretends to be a political party - the Republicans - projecting yet AGAIN?

      Another hint comes when you really think about why they might oppose sexual education so strongly.

    Epstein appears trustworthy on this, for I agree with what he is saying.

    If he were saying something I disagree with, I would point out that he’s very untrustworthy.

    I get the feeling being Trump’s closest friend isn’t any closer than the person furthest away.

    He’d probably sell his family for a buck.

    Why is there more than 100 hours of recordings with Epstein spilling the beans?

    Was it his confession because he knew he was going away forever?

      From what I’ve read he was trying to convince the journalist Michael Wolff to write his biography so they spent time together doing these interviews.

    Was it Epstein talking to a journalist? I’d take it with a grain of salt.

        Maybe because of all of the other indications that suggest there’s some truth to it. Like the fact that Trump is one of the people most frequently photographed with Epstein, and the numerous allegations against him that named both Trump and Epstein before Trump was even running for President. Or the fact that Trump said with his own mouth that he would fuck Ivanka if she weren’t his own kid, while she was still underage. Where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire. And there’s an awful lot of smoke there.
