donnie is *finally* getting the "scandal" treatment

donnie has finally pissed off too many powerful people.

musk is no longer his best buddy, donnie actually criticized putin for the first time probably ever, and he's trying to take on murdoch.

talk about biting the hand that feeds....

i know it seems absurd that donnie, a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, the most thoroughly documented liar in history, etc., etc., etc., is only now having his first scandal.

but the media has been covering for him forever. every other thing that should have been treated as a major, career-killing scandal, the media simply reported in a very indifferent fashion and then quickly moved on with a "nobody cares" attitude.

For whatever reason, the powers that be finally have decided they've had enough of donnie, and they're finally giving him the "scandal" treatment he has so richly deserved for over a decade now.

That in the 'social media sphere' - we are treating it like Benghazi.

The reality is - the guy is a paedo and a rapist. And it's in the Files. He was told last month his name was all over the files.

Now he ran on this -he needs to eat the shit sandwich he made for himself.

So far they haven't. If it continues until Congress comes back then we will see what happens.
