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

The whole Marjorie Taylor Greene thing is fascinating. ABC News apparently suggested that up to 100 GOP members could vote with MTG on releasing the Epstein files. It makes we wonder if somewhere, under the covers, the republicans have decided that they need to ditch Trump and they are using Greene to achieve that. When they had to get rid of Nixon the party grandees went round to Nixons office to warn him that the game was up and he resigned - Trump is not that type.

It's difficult to see an MTG electoral advantage (or disadvantage) in her stance - she's safe for 2026 unless the Republicans have really hit the buffers.

The other possibility is that she is a person of principle.

Or it could be as it seems to be with Mace in that she actually does have a red line and that red line is protecting pedophiles.

I've been thinking that too. When I read about pizzagate I was amazed how easily people were taken in but all that happened is a gullible people new to social media were led up the garden path in the belief that they were doing good.

Just because Trump saw that there was a gullible mob to manipulate doesn't mean he's immune from their pitchforks! And even if they did skewer him that doesn't mean their momentum is sated.

Taylor Green was always obviously bonkers, Jewish Space Lazers and Government Manipulated Weather etc.. yet the biggest bloc who bother voting chose her.

Trump might get dumped, but what lunacy comes in the door after him?

When one considers what the basis of Pizzagate was, and look at what Trump has once again flip-flopped on dealing with, the Epstein files and paedophile ring connected, via him, to the GOP, it's no wonder that there are people in the GOP trying to cut their ties to him. Some of them have apparently had enough of Trump and are disavowing knowledge of him now that the general public have rumbled to the complicity of both Trump administrations in providing a wall to hide the files behind. Hence Trump's attempt to spread the blame to people in the upper levels of NY society by way of his AG and the FBI.

The beauty is that any new investigation will be creating files around what they find and there'll be no blocking long term access to those new files, especially to Congress oversight committees.

If he is planning on invading Venezuela, like everything else, something he hasn`t thought through. The Venezuelan army would be more likely to fight to preserve the drug cartels than Maduro.

Can’t wait to see this actually happen and half of the files are redacted…

Nothing to hide, release them unblemished.

Trump, realising that he is going to lose the house vote, says "release the files"... And makes out like it's his idea.

I'm surprised he brought up Bill Clinton. I read over the weekend that at one stage, he and Donald were very, *very* close!

Will the files be locked up again as FBI investigate "various Democrat operatives" before the House Oversight Committee get their hands on them?

There's a lot of boats in miami that legitimate targets too.

Surely the US massive navy they could intercept rather than shoot to kill.

Epsteins brother has said publicly that Bubba doesn't refer to Clinton, but someone else.

Still the comment that putin has a photo of Trump doing something to Bubba explains a lot of things.

Let's be realistic. There are legitimate reasons to query a policy of blowing up drug boats instead of detaining them.

Legitimate reasons? You mean like giving people due process instead of, I don't know, killing them all before investigating or detaining them? A little thang like that?

You've absolutely lost the run of yourself since Trump became president. The amount of delusion, downplaying and mental gymnastics on display from you is staggering.

We should thank Trump for not having a lawyer who can control his ability to self-destruct. I wish he continues to know his own mind well.

I wonder if he struggles to be around people who are actually competent and intelligent.
