The House Judiciary Committee Democrats have released a trove of evidence regarding allegations of sexual assault, including a new rape allegation, against President Donald Trump in relation to Jeffrey Epstein that the lawmakers say has been deliberately covered up by the Department of Justice. The 50-page report, released Monday, contains testimony from 11 women who either accuse Trump of…

    Notice to the timing. The GOP is tired of trumps shit and no longer willing to protect him. The wagons are circling.

      That’s the idea.

      Sacrifice Trump to save their billionaire pedo deep state. Get us back to 2014 so that nothing will change or be addressed.

      It is a matter of when, not if. They don’t need him any more, as he’s not allowed to run again. I figure they’re only hesitant in case they can rig a third term somehow, otherwise it’s only a matter of time before they leave a stray rollerskate at the top of the stairs and let nature take its course.

        And ruin their chances to move up a rank? No way would a third term fly. On other things, you hear sycophants echoing what he says, tariffs, ice… Hell some even say the war in Iran is necessary, though more and more you hear them splitting from that. What you don’t hear is congressional representatives talking about third term bullshit. Only trump and his aides. But people who think they have a shot at 2028? Hell no. Hegseth and Vance both expect to be next in line.

        I expect him to get through November. Then they’ll start showing more of the tics he’s got going on, on red media. I would then expect to see them putting him in more stressful situations. Not just standing in front of a crowd with politicians, he loves that shit. But say at NATO, he starts getting grilled by Fox News, or one news or whatever that’s called, or other news outlets that have always been friendly, start calling him out. Publicly ask him about his record bad polling, all the proof of Epstein. Hell maybe they even just straight up release the files so it looks bad on him, but not the party as a whole. They don’t even need to give him a heart attack. Just enough to make him break down with a tic or dementia episode so bad that even his cult will ask for the 25th, out of “compassion”. That’s the best out for Republicans. And really the only way this whole thing goes down without more fascism and a revolution.
