Trump is Calling Friends to Tell Them to STFU About Epstein

Originally published at: Trump is Calling Friends to Tell Them to STFU About Epstein - TPM – Talking Points Memo

President Trump has reportedly been calling some of the highest profile and, typically, most loyal MAGA influencers in recent days to tell them to stop talking about the infamous Epstein files and his administration’s botched handling of their release. This comes as more and more Republicans in Congress try to walk a tightrope, supporting the…

I want to see what they’re hiding as much as anyone, but Trump has made a career of promising the moon and then delivering a handful of space dust, and he’s now in the WH for the second time. He may lose a few MAGA-nuts, but 95% of them will ultimately convince themselves that there’s no there there.

I am always interested in getting the discussion started. To kick things off, let’s start with a little challenge. Please caption this photo:

It’s probably time to remind folks about modern political yak. Bondi says there was no Client List. When probed about why just a week earlier she said “it is on my desk” she stated she meant the file . The file that supposedly had the client list in it. The file that’s been in DOJ and FBI possession since 2019.

No “client list”. OK but what else is in the file? Must be something because there’s a file. Right.

No client list is a narrow denial intended to satisfy broad curiosity. It is too specific to be taken as credible within its context. It’s not a denial of a list it’s a denial of what is would be on a list likely in another format.

If there was nothing about Trump in that file it would be all over FOX and WSJ. Whatever is in that file is not on a document named a client list. But it’s in there.

There’s a There there. And the evidence is far more incontrovertible, and the details so much more heinous even than we imagine, that Donnie is panicked.

“That’s pretty damn big if you ask me! It’s bigger than Trump’s, anyway. And that’s not even hard.! You should see it when my ICE bros throw a woman immigrant to the ground!”

“And the wife says it’s cute, so there’s that.”

CNN reported over the weekend that Trump called MAGA influencer and right-wing agitator Charlie Kirk, founder of the far-right youth group for MAGA supporters, Turning Point USA.

So CNN worked over the weekend! And what a scoop! Pulitzer for sure! The president was reportedly talking on the phone …"

Where the fuck is our vanguard of hard hitting reporters? And all those serious journalism grads from Columbia University? And all the staffers at the NYT?

For some reason, NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING! What list? That Bondi girl sure knows how to play the Stupid Card, doesn’t she.

Leadership: Better we wait till the mid-terms, take back the House.

Trump calling “friends.” Hilarious. I’ll bet Jr and Eric have already chosen which golf course will get his remains.

Why bother with all that effort?

“What is in the box in closet?”

“Dad”

I’m trying to hold two contradictory thoughts in my mind at the same time:

  1. I think the “Epstein files” are full of…nothing.

  2. Despite that, I hope the Epstein files will make MAGA panthers eat each others’ faces.

Bondi is both stupid and mendacious. The ‘file’ is more likely a dozen or more banker’s boxes full of documents, photos, computer hard drives, etc. It’s not and never has been ‘on her desk’ because it won’t fit on her desk.

Fatso is freaking out because some of that evidence is about him. Otherwise he would be mum.

If the files are released, he knows the contents will hurt his prescious rationg. And also too, if they are not released, he’s still toast. The speculation gets traction from his history of rape and molestation.
