Remember when Trump raped a 13 year old girl and then settled out of court, then a few years later he said that people who settle out of court are obviously guilty?
Interesting. Is there a site that has all of his convictions and settlements listed? This would be great in reasoning why he shouldn't run for office if you have a link to all that.
This isn't exactly that, but helpful...
He's demonstrably the actual biggest loser in history, and he just got more loser-y folks... If any of you are starting to have your memories fade, here's a quick refresher to read this morning and then copy and send to your aunt karen in Missouri.
Do you have a list that omits speculation and personal opinion? Got anything with facts and sources listed?
That list feels like a classic Reddit comment, packed with smugness. No one is going to convince their “aunt Karen in Missouri” that Trump is bad using a Facebook-tier list like that.
To answer your question, PoppinKREAM on Reddit often posted detailed comments with sources. Sort by “Top” on his Reddit profile and his fifth comment (as of today) has a much better list.
It would be good to remove silly things like the lifts in his shoes. Removes credibility from the list for anyone not already against Trump.
Everything Trump says has a little asterisk above it which is "*except when I do it" - except he probably doesn't know about asterisks. They're pretty complicated.
Sftu loser! He's got great asteriskses, the best in fact! Nobodies got asteriskses like him, in the world!
^(/s, but not really necessary I hope)
One time an asterisk came up to Trump, big asterisk, strong asterisk, tears streaming down its typeface and it said "Mr Trump, no president has ever been treated as poorly as you*".
Every accusation he makes is a confession. Always.
yeah... I'm not going to blame nobody for not wanting to read that article...
That's rare, a triple negative. So, who are you going to blame for not wanting to read the article?
Graphic details about Donald Trump’s alleged “sexual proclivities” have emerged in the latest round of court documents containing details of late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s associates. The new documents contain “incendiary claims” about the former president, including accusations that he had sexual relations with “many girls”, made by one of Epstein’s alleged victims, Sarah Ransome. Mr Trump’s name has appeared a handful of times previously in the documents and, while not accusing him of wrongdoing, appears to illustrate the good relationship he had with the disgraced financier. In the newly unsealed documents, Ms Ransome testified that her unnamed friend “was one of the many girls that had sexual relations with Donald Trump” – including at Epstein’s New York townhouse. - TV-MA, 61 mins

Mmh I'm pretty sure having sex with many girls will just be seen as a cool thing for the kind of people who vote for him.
I would clarify that the victims were trafficked and often children, but his supporters are notorious for cherry-picking, and their favorite book (allegedly) is full of that and more, anyhow. So, yeah, you're probably right. 🤦🏽♂️
Ransome was another imperfect witness. In the fall of 2016, she had suggested to the New York Post that she had sex tapes of half a dozen prominent people, including Bill Clinton and Donald Trump—but couldn’t provide the tapes when asked. (Ransome told me that she had invented the tapes to draw attention to Epstein’s behavior, and to make him believe that she had “evidence that would come out if he harmed me.”)

Her name is Ransome and she lies about celebrities?
The writing has been utterly awful these past few seasons.
I mean look how he died himself. She wasn’t far off-base I think.
Are we surprised?
Not really, it's been well known he's fucked kids for almost 30 years.
Surprised? We've already had corroborating depositions for years that he violently raped preteens at Epstein's.
they're demonstrating again that nobody actually cares about this sort of thing
Speak for yourself
If I was in a room with Trump and a hammer...
They mean anybody that supports the guy isn't going to care about this. It's why people like him accuse his opponents of something he's guilty of doing so that when his scandal comes out, people think it's either old news or "a Dem witch hunt"
Now, let's tie him to Epstein's "suicide"...
I think if he got charged with murder, I might just dissolve into a puddle of happiness.
What about the pee?
If something like that happened he was probably tricked into being filmed cheering on hookers defiling a bed the Obamas slept in. Very common KGB tactic to hire hookers to lead on powerful people until they do something they don't want public. Doubt he actually has a pee fetish.
There's a lot more evidence he wanted to or actually did have sex with underage girls.
I mean, that's a CIA tactic too, at least if we learn anything from history
Still a lot of so called Christians out there say he's God man with a straight face....
Meidas Touch found and produced a contemporaneous news article a few days back that Trump was "dating" one of Epstein's victims, Anouska De Georgiou in 1997. Seems more than a small coincidence.
I don't care if he likes to be peed on or whatever, but seriously try to imagine saying this to someone
she told me how he kept going on about how he liked her ‘pert nipples’,” she testified.
