Get it?

I doubt it...

The exact same thing is happening right now as the treasury is being steadily drained and people are dying from depraved indifference and negligent homicide, and those responsible will be rewarded with bonuses, bailouts, and reelection, even as they do it in broad daylight, right in front of our eyes

    What does a false flag attack from the old days have to do with bankers who appointed themselves masters of the money machine handing out free money to their friends today? And what is this 'treasury' you speak of?

    It's hard for a host to outlive parasites that are too-big-to-fail.

        I'm still of the opinion that coronavirus will have little long term impact.

        Look for the high public debt - austerity will follow that.

                    Gee, if you ignore all the pictures that do not have both of them in it, then it looks like Trump only has one suit. Maybe they were both at a function where lots of pictures were taken.

                    Trump banned Epstein from his resort and was the only rich bastard to co-operate with the AG when Epstein was prosecuted. Sure sounds like best buddies.

                        https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/09/us/politics/trump-epstein.html [nytimes.com]

                        “In those days, if you didn’t know Trump and you didn’t know Epstein, you were a nobody,” said Alan Dershowitz

                        So they moved in similar circles. No businessman is going to snub a high-profile financier like Epstein was in those days without a damned good reason.

                        Roger J. Stone Jr., the former Trump adviser, wrote in his book “The Clintons’ War on Women,” which was published during the campaign, that Mr. Trump “turned down many invitations to Epstein’s hedonistic private island and his Palm Beach home.” Once when Mr. Trump visited Mr. Epstein at his Palm Beach home, Mr. Stone wrote about the scene of underage girls he witnessed there.

                        “The swimming pool was filled with beautiful young girls,” Mr. Trump later told a Mar-a-Lago member, according to Mr. Stone. “‘How nice,’ I thought, ‘he let the neighborhood kids use his pool.’”

                        Trump does seem a bit clueless.

                      Don't worry, Runaway is so TDS'd he'll just scoff and keep scrolling. Recently I've been noticing that not once does Runaway, khallow, or TMB respond when called out with clear facts. Hopefully it penetrates their myopic cloud of propaganda a tiny bit, but they still are incapable of doing more than saying Trump is stupid while giving zero shits about the horrors he perpetrates.

                      Wish I could remember where I saw the story, but some medical person was fired and apparently went full whistleblower showing that the administration knew about the COVID-19 dangers. With all the PPE shenanigans going on with Jared and re-selling it is harder and harder to view it as just a fuck up, or just another Trump PR "lowest numbers ever" spin attempt.

                      They were both obscenely rich arseholes with properties in Palm Beach and NY and moved in the same circles, so it's no surprise they were seen sharing a joke once.

                      Of course this /should/ be disqualifying - not having shared a joke at a party once with someone that later turned out to be a really bad guy, that could happen to anyone that ever went to a party - but just being a rich arsehole who moves in these circles to begin with. They're all predictably scheming to screw the public all the time - none of them should be let anywhere near a public office.

                      The problem is, the Democrats are all the same sort of assholes, and several of them had a lot more to do with Epstein - even after he got in trouble.

                      It's like the family guy where they hire an ugly girl to stand next to Meg, ever see that one?
