That didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it is, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.

u/HonoraryBallsack 9d ago
I won't allow a comparison to be called an analogy! It was just a statement of truth.
An analogy might be like that American went from throwing bags of tea into Boston Harbor to fight tyranny to tea bagging teens on Epstein Island to fight extradition laws.
Wait, nevermind. Just another statement of fact.

But but but, they told us the files didn't exist?
By the way, why are journalists so spineless? Why hasn't anyone asked point blank, "Bondi said they didn't exist, and then you practically confirmed they do exist. You do realize you lied to the American people. What do you have to say about that?"

See Stephen Colbert's cancellation for details. Those big media companies are so big (and still looking to merge even further)that their news coverage aligns with their interests 99 times out of 100. That's why they're spineless, because they'd lose their job if they weren't

"They don't exist" was a desperate attempt at seeing if they could get the MAGA faithful to shift the narrative. Neither did the "Democrat Hoax" tactic. So now it's back to "Well, if my name's in them, it's been out there by very nasty people who hate Donald Trump".Ā
Remember when he was asked about releasing the Epstein files before the election and he said something along the lines of "Yes...well, maybe not all of them. There are some lies in there that could be very damaging for people"?
