Despite hating them both and the fools that demonize the opposition with their horrible lies, I wouldn't call them traitors. But I would call them destructive to western civilization with their demented policies.

I think Harper is right when he calls the woke crowd nihilistic. In reality, they are a relatively small group of destructive socialists bent on destroying capitalism and successfully convincing weak minded, emotionally driven naive fools into voting for them in order to feel good about themselves or to satisfy a deeply ingrained guilt complex due to their life being relatively good. I would suspect that 'Bob' falls into the former.

Sometimes I wonder if you ever read what you write, Pelmet. The way you come across isn't how you think you do.
Well, we just has some posters make strong suggestions of one our politicians being a child molester. It appears that that was not enough to get a reaction out of you as compared to my comment. But I do admit to at least somewhat aggressive replies to at least somewhat aggressive comments.

Lots of evidence. Here's two examples:

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/p ... se-191860/

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/202 ... tein-tapes

But those deep in the MAGA cult will claim that Trump was just helping to expose sexual predators.
Looks like Bingo Fuel is citing non-credible sources:

Michael Wolffe fire and Fury book: " The author of the explosive new book about Donald Trump's presidency acknowledged in an author's note that he wasn't certain all of its content was true.

Michael Wolff, the author of "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House," included a note at the start that casts significant doubt on the reliability of the specifics contained in the rest of its pages.

Several of his sources, he says, were definitely lying to him, while some offered accounts that flatly contradicted those of others.

But some were nonetheless included in the vivid account of the West Wing's workings, in a process Wolff describes as "allowing the reader to judge" whether the sources' claims are true."

Well if you're really interested you can listen to the actual recordings from Epstein discussing Trump:

https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e ... 0675243446

Not sure it really matters, as we already know Trump is a huge PoS. It's a bit like seeing the latest idiotic thing come out of Musk's mouth...at some point you don't need any more evidence.

I haven't listened...not interested. Just replying to your earlier comment that Wolff's sources may be lying and contradict each other. This is from the horse's mouth (Epstein). Of course, Epstein could be lying.

DJT. IS A CAVEMAN running around smashing anything he don't like. Most post of this thread. Is approaching from an intelligent rational bent . It dont work with caveman. Wrong tactic.

He is running. Hitlers dictators playbook to a tee.

1/ crush domestic opposition
2/ sell glory of conquest. To foreign n domestic audiences
3/ military ultimatium to achieve domination without firing a shot
4/ annexation and invasion.

Elon musk is the Joseph Gruebels of the 21st century.

We're all cavemen. Leftist policies and beliefs never seem to account for human nature. If you don't believe me just wait for the money to dry up and the store shelves to be empty.

Know what I can’t wait for? The Permian oil fields to crap out one day and we are selling our stuff to Asia.

Whatever else I am really pissed that your average American or congressman isn’t standing up to thr orange buffoon.

I don’t like it that our troops have been disrespected too.

We won’t forget and the world is watching. US is gonna be the LT loser out of this.

Stupid comments are irrelevant. Epstein met thousands of people. These stupid commenters like Cooper, Inverted, and Bob are actually quite pathetic by bringing this subject into politics. Trump met Epstein and probably Carney did too. It means nothing as he was trying to meet everyone famous and would have inevitably met lots of people who are not famous.
I get your point but trump himself saying things like "“I’ve known Jeff [Epstein] for 15 years. Terrific guy,” Trump told New York magazine in 2002. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”" doesn't help.

Or walking into change rooms of 15 year old girls regularly

According to Wikipedia, Epstein was initially investigated in 2005. So Trump was unaware in 2002 of what he was doing. Epstein likely didn't show up to parties with underage girls as that would be too risky. Trump would have been in his 50's back in 2002. A younger girl would be someone in their 20's. Melania is on the younger side when it comes to Trump. I would say that Clinton, of whom there are pictures getting a back massage from an underage girl might have a bit more to worry about. Same with Prince Andrew.

That works until you actually look into it and realize Miss Teen U.S.A. pageants was one of them, as well as all the girls who were well under age who talked about him looking at them.

He wants Canada. A Liberal party will fight him, lose, cripple the country, and have Alberta demanding to be the 51st State. A Conservative party wouldn't give him the enemy necessary.

I skipped great snow conditions in the western US and went to Europe instead. The snow hit just before I went and it turned out great.

As for the airlines, I wonder how this will affect them. Maybe a new thread.
