According to testimony from Epstein's brother, Trump has been to the island, actually.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wait. I thought it didn't exist and was made up?

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

The island...? I've never seen somebody claim the island was made up, and Epsteins brother gave testimony years ago.

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 34 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And he said this without even being asked about it.

[–] burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

he fired all the people who would have said "SHUT UP! STOP TALKING! YOU'RE INCRIMINATING YOURSELF"

Fortunately for him, he also captured the whole justice system, so he can incriminate himself all he wants with no consequences.

Your link doesn't say he went to Epstein's island. It says Matt Groening took a flight on his plane and got a foot massage. It also doesn't say that he knew the "underage woman" was underage. I'm all in on prosecuting everyone who raped kids with Epstein, but the bar should be a little higher than accepting a ride on a rich guy's plane.

I've got the feeling that Epstein probably made a routine of getting himself close to other rich and famous people for the purpose of befriending and trying to see who would take the bait. I doubt he offered children to everybody who boarded his plane, so he probably started with little things (like a foot massage) then guaged the person's reaction and offered from there. That someone flew on his plane I don't think automatically makes them guilty, but I would look closer at the people who flew in his plane multiple times.

Side note, as a massage therapist toenail fungus is extremely common. Also, the presence of sock fuzzies suggests a brand new pair of socks. If anything, most of the people that I've met that have toenail issues are extremely self-conscious about the way their feet look and aren't very comfortable exposing their feet to strangers. According to the article it was Epstein's idea, so that just makes me wonder if it was part of his game to put Growing in a compromising position for future black mail.

Not that it makes it any less disgusting, but that article specifically states it did not happen on the island in like the first two paragraphs.

If this comment is serious it’s starting to look like a list of the people that didn’t go would be shorter.

[–] pinheadednightmare@lemmy.world 40 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Which is why Trump org is trying to say that the release of the documents would be detrimental to a lot of things…. I say good, it still needs to be addressed. I think there are people on that list that would surprise a lot of people because that was the “thing” to do when you are in that crowd of people… That last sentence was very difficult to type out.

[–] Vedlt@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago (2 children)

If releasing the list would be detrimental to a thing... that thing probably needs to be looked at in a very harsh light. Like that argument is so weak... I don't want the things I like to be supporting child rape. Please remove all the child rapists from the things I like, thank you.

[–] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It also pisses me off when people say “I mostly support Trump”, or similar.

I like everything about trump except for his words and his actions and everybody he has associated with throughout his life.

What this guy? No way!

Captain subtext in action

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Fucking my exact comment first time I saw that quote.

Trumpers: “he’s just trolling you libtard”

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago
