      Comedians used to joke how nothing could ever stick to Bill Clinton. Trump is making him look like an amateur.

        Yeah, in the case of Clinton, it was mostly about a stain on a dress, and everything else was one gigantic nothingburger, in spite of all the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy’s efforts to make it otherwise…

        The proto-qons and the proto-teabaggers (in their pupa phase between Bircher and teabagger/qanon nut) lost their fuckin’ minds over both of the Clintons. Hillary drove them absolutely apeshit with being the stand-in for every 60s feminist they had hated for decades up to that point, and mostly because she did a bit more than just arrange flowers and have other women over for tea and meaningless meetings at the WH. And Bill drove them nuts for getting a blowjob.

        It still makes me chuckle to think about how some of them got so grrr mad that Bill couldn’t be removed for getting some lollipop love from Monica. One of them was huffing about this and squealed - “but Bill is MARRIED! This is infidelity!” I asked, “yeah, but is it illegal?” I’ve never seen one of these type look so impotent in my life when he sagged into his chair, red-faced with rage, and quietly said…“no”.

      It’s got nothing to do with him, he’s just a loser.

      It’s the cloud of losers around him, constantly embarrassing themselves, trying to help him, that off themselves constantly, in trying to help him for absolutely no gain or benefit that do it.

      It’s only a measure of how pathetic the Establishment Party types are.

    I find it weird, even comic, that musk feels the same impotent powerlessness in the face of trump’s perfidy as the rest of us.

          Oh, he never will. For his loved ones to be in danger he would need to be capable of feeling love in the first place.

            If trump/the fbi gave him a sufficiently exhaustive list of all of his children, I could see it. musk needs to get clean piss and spare organs from SOMEWHERE and it hurts his (father’s) life goal of single handedly making the (white) human race significantly balder in future generations.

            In all seriousness, the “noveau rich” (of which the child of an emerald mine owner considers himself to be part) tend to be obsessed with their children. They think they are feudal lords who are going to use their children as bargaining pieces. So they might openly hate their families even more than the “old money” families, but they consider them their strongest bargaining pieces. And since musk is both…

    ‘big beautiful bill’

    ‘big bomb’

    Who is naming this shit?

    And sorry Elon, I don’t believe your sudden spin back into UBI after the whole DOGE saga, you’re a POS.

      Oh he totally gives a shit about the people. The white people. The white male people who agree with him.

        You had to add “male”. In reality so many women voted MAGA.

            That doesn’t change the fact that women voted for them in droves.

            The narrative that is just men voting for these people is stupid.

        Drugs I feel is a convenient excuse he’s backspinning.

        Plenty of people take drugs and don’t decide to make DOGE.

        Plenty of people in power do drugs and also didn’t decide that DOGE was a good idea.

        It’s not drugs, it’s not the result of them.

        It’s just him.

          Decent person + drugs = fun/funny

          Insecure asshole + drugs = DOGE + Nazi salute + inflated ego.

          Probably missing some terms but you get the idea.

      Like I keep saying, the cons are very weird and are very keen on the baby talk (meaningless and completely undefined googoo/gaagaa words like “maga”, “maha”, “big beautiful bill”, and just about everything out of Taco’s mouth on virtually any topic), although “big bomb” is just being kind of bombastic in my view and is less baby talk.

    • Literally nothing that everyone doesn’t already know - that Trump was super close with Epstein for years and is obviously a predator.

      The evidence is already public, making noise about one list is a waste of time.

        Exactly. I’d also say that evidence of Trump’s crimes don’t matter to the people who support him because his crimes don’t matter to the people who support him.

          Conservative morality is generally based on one’s place in the hierarchy. They see him as a moral person for being higher in the hierarchy than them, actions don’t come into account.
