Donald Trump the Megathread part II - Mod Warning updated in OP 12/2/26

Of the worst genocide of our lifetime. I think the same activists would rather it continue than Donald Trump sort a ceasefire. How crazy is that?

As I said before... Gríma Wormtongue

Why doesn't he release the Epstein files then?

In fairness, the roots of this problem with regards to the US are a heck of a lot deeper than Biden. You are correct but there'd have been uproar across the US political establishment which is why Biden did what he did and ultimately failed.

We're talking about a man who struggles to assemble a sentence, much less speak coherently for a single minute. The only way something like this would work was if it was led from the top by a disciplined, relentless leader with the courage of their convictions. Instead, we have this decomposing monster who fawns over child molesters and tyrants.

A good example is the GFA. The Clinton administration made it top priority, took it within the White House and worked with all the parties involved.

That's no going to happen here. At best, and I mean the very best case scenario, is a sticking plaster to be peeled off at Netanyahu's convenience.

Well it will be interesting anyway who gets awarded it. A lot of eyes will be on this like never before.

I wonder if a reporter will ask Trump if he will invite the winner to the WH?!

very true - they know he is a spoofer.

Convicted felon and possible Pedophile and currently bringing his country towards civil war.

If he does get awarded the prize, I can see future recipients and nominees openly rejecting it. It'd debase the prize so badly as to render it almost worthless.

I think we're putting the cart before the horse though. I can't see him getting it.

Another entrant for the home for the bewildered.

Bit like Michael asking Fredo out on a boat trip…..

Swallwell is a Californian Democrat in the US House of Representatives.
Not sure we can take what he says at face value on this issue to be honest, although I guess old-school politicians do talk to each other 'across the divide'. But I have my doubts that 100 GOPs are going to desert anytime soon.

He ran for the nomination for the Dems for president at one stage. Sat on a fair few committees too.

Would have ranked him as one not prone to hyperbole…

Just noting it was interesting is all

There had better be something truly explosive in those files that is incontrovertible as evidence goes. I'm talking clear video footage of Trump engaged in sex acts with a minor or something on that level. Anything else goes in the bin of 'FAKE NEWS!' as far as his supporters would be concerned.

Considering that his sexual deviancy is well-known, be it bragging about sexual assault to Billy Bush, or sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll, his weird comments about his own daughter, or 'accidentally' wandering into the changing rooms at the Miss Teen USA competition when he owned it, why do we need the Epstein files to prove that he is a pervert? And we already know he was friends with Epstein, plus that creepy birthday note from him to Epstein should make anyone think that if there is a network of rich paedophiles out there, Trump was very much a part of it.

But the other thing is that the Department of Justice are the ones in possession of those files and responsible for the release thereof. So, no matter how many congressional votes are held for their release, Pam Bondi can simply refuse, if it comes to it, and what would happen to her? Get arrested? She's the US AG and personally loyal to Trump.
