I hate how stuff like this about him actually makes me laugh. Worst human ever, but his 'basic' humour is one miniscule part of him I can get behind. It's like when he called all those countries 'shtholes'. Couldn't agree more. It's a tiny glimpse for me as to what people like about him. At least I can recognize it's the total a-hole that lives inside of me that appreciates that type of stuff versus thinking he's some god.

Once Sliver finds out how much Trump hates dogs he will be full MAGA.

I couldn't help but laugh when that guy passed out in the Oval Office and Trump just blankly stared at him, then looked dead ahead like he was so f-cking unimpressed that someone would take the attention away from him. It was hilarious. He's an awful human being, but if you could distill all of the hilarious stuff into a character, you'd happily watch the TV show that character was in.

Norm Macdonald had a pretty informed opinion on Trump's humor and what makes him funny.

I don't necessarily like how he lets him off the hook a bit, but I think the interpretation is fairly accurate.

Somebody just flagged themselves as being in the Epstein files. The only surprising part is it's only one.

I don’t have a link because it’s in my Apple News feed but according to TMZ, Mark Epstein is alleging the DOJ is scrubbing republican names from the Epstein Files at a facility in Winchester, Virginia.

I mean, that's pretty clearly what was the cause of the delay in releasing them. Unfiltered files will be the new JFK assassination.

Yup. The only way the GOP would vote in favour of releasing them is if Trump’s name (and other prominent Republicans) have been scrubbed from the files. If it actually gets to the point where they’re released, they’ll be heavily doctored for sure.

If this is the case (and it 99% will be), I hope someone (or several) chirps from inside the DOJ side and ruins the credibility of this release. Trump instantly pivoting to 'this is fine, release them!' after months of deflection and denial brings out so many red flags it's sad and pathetic. His cultist dip#### base will be fine with it though, I'm sure.

It’s action by redaction or something like that.

These guys are so incompetent, that I wouldn't be surprised if they also ADDED Obama's name on there too with their scrubbing and evidence tampering.

I’m betting it’ll be a bunch of Democrats in the files but zero Republicans, which would obviously be incredibly fishy. But the MAGA cult would totally buy it.

Just trying to think like a crooked Republican, but why wouldn't you have just scrubbed the names anyway regardless of whether the release of the files was pending? It just seems like something that if you could do it and get away with it easily, you would just do it out of caution anyway.

I am assuming it's a last ditch attempt because it can't be done 100% cleanly and convincingly, like there will be obvious signs that they were scrubbed, therefore it's really just a last report and could backfire.

The 1 ‘no’ vote was Clay Higgins.

If they’re doctoring the files, a lot of Republicans will need to be sacrificed in order to try and keep the fish stank away.
