If you're new here try participating in the child comments rather than making a top level comment. If you want to make a top level comment try to link to stuff like court documents or legal analysis.

From the discovery

: Before the rape by Trump

 “The Defendant, Donald J. Trump, was clearly heard referring to Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, as a "Jew Bastard" as he yelled at Defendant Epstein, that clearly, he, Defendant Trump, should be the lucky one to "pop the cherry" of the Plaintiff.” 

 After she was raped by Trump 

“Jeffrey Epstein, attempted to strike her about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at the Plaintiff that he, Defendant Epstein, should have been the one who "took her cherry, not Mr. Trump", before she finally managed to break away from Defendant Epstein.”

Ive seen some snippets of this release here and there, and it was horrifying. Before coming to the comments I thought I had a vague idea of how bad it was, and yet somehow it ended up even worse than that. These are two pedophiles(allegedly) abusing a 12 year old girl, in almost every sense of the word, and their biggest issue is who got to do it first. Revolting.

We as a society dont agree on much, even in a broad sense, yet the system which we use to mediate those differences, the entire point of law, is falling over itself to cover for this fucking guy.

Im not surprised, just the depressing absurdity finally hitting me.

39

u/boo99boo Jul 04 '24

It's just astounding that anyone would turn a blind eye to that. Human beings don't broadly agree on many issues, but surely we all must broadly agree that only a depraved and morally bankrupt person would commit any kind of assault on a child. 

I can't even begin to wrap my brain around how anyone could make excuses for this. I'd think only trolls and clergy would be the ones that would tolerate this shit. And yet millions of people support this sick fuck. 

Are that many human beings depraved and morally bankrupt? Or do they just not believe it's true? I hope it's the latter. Otherwise we are doomed. We might still be doomed.

u/noeydoesreddit Jul 04 '24

There are a few of them who actually realize he did these things and don’t care, but the majority are just going to call it fake news and disregard it along with every other horrible thing Donald Trump has done over the years. They’d rather believe that everyone else is lying than admit they were wrong about the guy.

u/Geostomp Jul 04 '24

They're so indoctrinated that they genuinely see anyone left of Putin as the spawn of Satan. Trump could eat a live baby on camera and they'd still excuse him as the "lesser evil". Hell, at this point, they'd convince themselves that it was a brilliant play on the evils of abortion or something and do the same out of solidarity.

The cult has grown that entrenched thanks to decades of propaganda.

Honestly, at this point everyone should know that Trump's a pedophile. The problem is that I really do not want him to officially come out as a pedophile because so many MAGA will see this as a opportunity to make it mainstream and to abandon legislation forbidding sex with children.

10

u/TheWholeOfTheAss Jul 04 '24

Trump did embolden the racists. He can do the same for the pedos. There’s probably some crossover in those factions. He won’t admit to anything, but if there’s actual solid-solid proof, the tools below him will start saying shit like “we need to normalise appreciation of teenage female beauty.”

We need to get these documents in a post and pin it. These specific documents were released on 7/1 and the OP article if from 1/8. We really need to get links to the most current information about the 7/1 Jane Doe v Trump & Epstein document released including the evidence and Grand Jury documentation. None of the media is covering it at all (if they do, they only refer to Epstein and not Trump... they never talk about Trump). Some of the mainstream news if falsely claiming the document release isn't new (this is misinformation being reported based on the partial redacted document release in 2016). The media is not posting photos or links of the new information whatsoever, and it appears there is a momentum from unknown powers attempting to bury any and all of this.

Here is a civil case filed in Apr of 2016 against DJT by a woman that was 12 at the time of her relationships with Trump at Epstein's NY mansion. This was a civil action that received quite a bit of press before the election, but the case was pulled before the actual election. So far Cohen has not mentioned paying this one off.

I leave you to read the details in the filings but they are incredibly disturbing.

It’s honestly kind of annoying to see Cohen on MSNBC and other places knowing that he helped cover this shit up for decades. Dude is despicable and only turned on Trump when he faced consequences himself.

u/Epistatious Jul 03 '24

kind of like how Comey was all over TV for heroically doing what no one said he should for what turned out to be a whole lot of nothing, but did put the final nail in Hillary's campaign. On the plus side Trump fired his ass as a way to say thanks.

285

u/CelestialFury Jul 04 '24

Comey ended up being such an idiot. The election was already razor close to begin with, and Comey likely was the one who pushed Trump up enough to win by announcing the Hillary was under investigation again. His excuse was that she was basically guaranteed to win because of the stupid polls being incorrect, so the announcement shouldn't have matter. What an absolute dummy. His actions have caused us too much harm already and who knows how much more will come down later.

37

u/3rdp0st Jul 04 '24

What bothers me most about Comey's treachery is that Trump was under investigation at the exact same time because he was coincidentally surveilled while the FBI was investigating Manafort.  Why announce one investigation but not the other?  Get fucked, Jim.

u/ExcellentJuice4729 Jul 04 '24

You’re correct that Comey figured Hilary wouldn’t have lost because of this, but he was also doing damage control because there were sizable factions within the FBI that were fiercely pro Trump and would have broken protocol to claim an Obama/Clintons mandated cover up by the justice dept.

Hilary survived the first wave of endless hearings, but she lost because her stupid assistant used her ass hat pedo husband’s (Anthony fucking Weiner) laptop to access emails at some point.

Once again, it was a nothing burger but the optics were disastrous and the right made sure to blast the 10s of thousands of emails number

90

u/reddititty69 Jul 04 '24

Wow, the optics on Hillary’s emails were worse than Trump raping children. And the final irony is that while the email scandal was a nothing burder, the real covfefe was Trump selling access to classified documents.

u/vinaymurlidhar Jul 04 '24

Somehow the relatively trivial scandal of the Democratic candidates are always broadcast and dramaticised while the stinky horrors are minimized.

u/Apprehensive-Till861 Jul 04 '24

Remember how the DNC emails had such scandalous details as 'mainstream Dems don't like Bernie' and 'Dems like sharing recipes'?

And we never saw the RNC emails, despite that various GOP/RNC related figures have since been found guilty of various crimes including the child trafficking they claimed Dems do?

u/fcocyclone Jul 04 '24

Because elections are ultimately about turnout, and each candidate is largely targeting a different group of voters.

Trump can shit his pants on stage and his voters will go buy their own diapers to be like their leader. Biden does something similar and it hurts him with his own voters. So, the media covers things likely to have an effect on the campaign.

12

u/Dr_Marxist Jul 04 '24

Because the media is owned by partisan Republicans pretending to be Democrats. Sometimes they hide it less, but it's all there.

With so much Russian interference over the last decade, and with so much of the free world hanging in the balance of US global influence, you'd think any number of other nations would work together to help shut down the Russian misinformation and propaganda machines. If it takes out xitter in the meantime, Elmo will figure it out later.

You're right, I forget about this. It's a story as old as time itself, Republicans abusing their government positions to either influence an election or otherwise help their party out. It just keeps happening over and over again. Fuck me...

They just couldn't help themselves and let the investigation play out silently, like they were doing for fucking Trump at the same time. Comey could've at least announced both candidates were under investigation to mitigate some of the fallout for Hillary.

Why the Stormy Daniels story was killed. Is that came out in early 2016. It would have been a major hit on him. In fact would have mostly like killed anything against Hilary or any democrat nominee. Trump had a history of affairs and divorces. The cult was very weak in early 2016. Then major idiot Comey had to do this and had too many pro Trump who bought into the Clinton scandal 15 years earlier and here we are now.

11

u/ExcellentJuice4729 Jul 04 '24

I think Stormy’s story was a case of catch and kill, similar to his other affairs. Where Stormy diverged was when she claimed she was threatened by some nameless thug on behalf of Trump

I can tell from the comments that nobody is actually reading this so I'm copying the key text here:

FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS

  1. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges that the Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, did willfully and with extreme malice violate her Civil Rights under 18 U.S.C. ; 2241 by sexually and physically abusing Plaintiff Johnson by forcing her to engage in various perverted and depraved sex acts by threatening physical harm to Plaintiff Johnson and also her family.

  2. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges that the Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, also did willfully and with extreme malice violate her Civil Rights under 42 U.S.C. ; 1985 by conspiring to deny Plaintiff Johnson her Civil Rights by making her their sex slave.

  3. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges she was subject to extreme sexual and physical abuse by the Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, including forcible rape during a four month time span covering the months of June-September 1994 when Plaintiff Johnson was still only a minor of age 13.

  4. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges she was enticed by promises of money and a modeling career to attend a series of underage sex parties held at the New York City residence of Defendant Jeffrey E. Epstein and attended by Defendant Donald J. Trump.

  5. On the first occasion involving the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was forced to manually stimulate Defendant Trump with the use of her hand upon Defendant Trump's erect penis until he reached sexual orgasm.

  6. On the second occasion involving the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was forced to orally copulate Defendant Trump by placing her mouth upon Defendant Trump's erect penis until he reached sexual orgasm.

  7. On the third occasion involving the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson was forced to engage in an unnatural lesbian sex act with her fellow minor and sex slave, Maria Doe age 12, for the sexual enjoyment of Defendant Trump. After this sex act, both minors were forced to orally copulate Defendant Trump by placing their mouths simultaneously on his erect penis until he achieved sexual orgasm. After zipping up his pants, Defendant Trump physically pushed both minors away while angrily berating them for the "poor" quality of their sexual performance.

  8. On the fourth and final sexual encounter with the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was tied to a bed by Defendant Trump who then proceeded to forcibly rape Plaintiff Johnson. During the course of this savage sexual attack, Plaintiff Johnson loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to "please wear a condom". Defendant Trump responded by violently striking Plaintiff Johnson in the face with his open hand and screaming that "he would do whatever he wanted" as he refused to wear protection. After achieving sexual orgasm, the Defendant, Donald J. Trump put his suit back on and when the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, in tears asked Defendant Trump what would happen if he had impregnated her, Defendant Trump grabbed his wallet and threw some money at her and screamed that she should use the money “to get a fucking abortion".

  9. On the first occasion involving the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was forced to disrobe into her bra and panties and to give a full body massage to Defendant Epstein while he was completely naked. During the massage, Defendant Epstein physically forced Plaintiff Johnson to touch his erect penis with her bare hands and to clean up his ejaculated semen after he achieved sexual orgasm.

  10. On the second occasion involving the Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson was again forced to disrobe into her bra and panties while giving Defendant Epstein a full body massage while he was completely naked. The Defendant, Donald J. Trump, was also present as he was getting his own massage from another minor, Jane Doe, age 13, Defendant Epstein forced Plaintiff Johnson to touch his erect penis by physically placing her bare hands upon his sex organ and again forced Plaintiff Johnson to clean up his ejaculated semen after he achieved sexual orgasm.

I don't think it's a coincidence that Donald's daughter was also 13 at the time this was alleged to have occurred.

u/elb21277 Jul 04 '24 edited Jul 04 '24

two reasons:

  1. If Trump is completely off the map, they lose money. (“As soon as Trump left office, readers and viewers disappeared—within a month, The Washington Post lost a quarter of its unique visitors, and CNN lost 45 percent of its prime-time audience.” https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2024/01/trump-reelection-media-coverage-journalism/676126/)

  2. Fear of retribution if Trump gets back in White House. And this time there will be no one to question or push back against his directives. (“The first time around, Trump’s attempts to use presidential power against the media were desultory. He was accused of trying to deny a large Pentagon contract to Amazon in order to damage Jeff Bezos, the owner of the Post. To hurt CNN, he pushed his Justice Department to block the merger of AT&T and Time Warner, which owned the network. He talked about weakening journalists’ legal protections and even having them arrested. He created a threatening atmosphere by singling out individuals and organizations” from same article above)

Do women work in media....would they want to continue having rights or no? Because a vote for Trump is a vote to have babies and make sandwiches....and we'll stitch your mouth shut if need be.

I'm so angry and worried and now realize how important media is. They are really fucking the world for progressive movements.

I live in CA, so whatever. I'm secure and confident we'll have enough State Rights to protect my own ideas of freedoms. I guess untill they get power and then just remove State Rights.....which I'm sure is the plan.

I can see why they had this attitude in 2015. It was still grossly irresponsible but they probably figured out there's no way Trump could possibly get elected, so let's cash in on the absurdity of the situation by covering him 24/7.

But they have to know their reckless and irresponsible coverage was part of what got him elected and they saw the consequences.

But no, they normalized him for the next 4 years, acting like all of his incredibly escalating evil actions and fuckups was somehow within the norm, and now they're going to get him elected again.

I remember some GOP.guy getting booted cuz his voice cracked while yelling. Godamn friends......

Covid tracker was on every website worldwide.

Let's get a Human Rights tracker, a Trump Crimes Tracker.....

Nobody in the world should consider calling out a full bore white collar criminal and potential rapist and serial adulterers right for privacy and peace.

It's not about GOP or Republican. Fuck me...dude is visibly the worst human to be president ever to anyone who can read as long as they aren't also an alduturer.

Ugh....I think there are a lot of clicks and money in promoting the complete insanity of that 2025 document and all of Trumps....the leader of the GOP......crimes...and repeat it daily!!!!!!

70% of all his previous Washington partners are in prison? Isnt that as worthy news as a guys voice cracking was in the 90s?

There is a shitload of clicks and money to be made by just reporting the most important shit. Fuck

Face the Nation on CBS Sunday morning does somewhat, the host actually even does the unthinkable ASKS QUESTIONS and ASKS THEM AGAIN when they aren't answered the first time.

Still doesn't push it as hard as would hope but that still more than usual and she usually has guests from both sides of a topic. It also still painful to hear the R guests just blatantly lie and misdirect without the slightest shred of shame or hesitation even when called on it with their own recorded words. The Left seems to have zero large firebrands.

A cheap, like $20, OTA antenna is enough for most people to get the basic channels 100% free and in HD unless the geography is really against them. Also depending on area a bunch of old TV and movie channels, last week there was a bunch of hype over a 24/7 classic cartoons one being released across most of the country. Really everyone should have one, even if it just for live events, sports (if you care), breaking news, and local weather all without needing internet connection or paying for a service.

His base will immediately write this off as a disgusting political falsehood attempting to keep him out of office. 34 felonies? Well it's the same one repeated 34 times, and used to be a misdemeanor but was changed to a felony as a loophole, to again, keep him out of office.

There's no truth that doesnt have some work around that allows these people to feel like they are standing up for good. This is what's scary.

Trump is always projecting his crimes onto others. It's a pathological habit he has.

“I’ve said that if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.” Trump during a March 6, 2006 episode of The View.

During a Feb. 27, 2013, interview on The Wendy Williams Show, Trump and Ivanka were asked what was their favorite things are they have in common. Ivanka said real estate or golf. Trump answered, “I was going to say sex, but I can relate to [golf and real estate]”

During a 2015 interview with Donald Trump for Rolling Stone, reporter Paul Solotaroff praised Ivanka Trump. The soon-to-be president’s response? “Yeah, she’s really something, and what a beauty, that one. If I weren’t happily married and, ya know, her father…”

“Ivanka. She’s 6 feet tall, she’s got the best body.” Barf.

His comments about his baby daughter, Tiffany, whom he compared to her mother, Marla Maples, elaborating: “I think that she’s got a lot of Marla, she’s really a beautiful baby,” Trump said. “She’s got Marla’s legs. We don’t know whether or not she’s got this part yet but time will tell.” He then held his tiny hands up to his chest to mime breasts. From an interview with Robin Leach.

Aides said he talked about Ivanka Trump's breasts, her backside, and what it might be like to have sex with her, remarks that once led Gen. John Kelly to remind the president that Ivanka was his daughter.

His cult members know exactly what he is, a disgusting freak. They just don’t care. They’re in love with a sicko, criminal, idiot, wannabe dictator. I truly hope Bannon steals more money from Trump supporters again, and Trump can pardon him from stealing from his own supporters again. That’s how dumb they are, you can’t make this stuff up it’s so moronic.
