The Trump/Blanche/Maxwell Coverup

Fantastic article by Thom Hartmann, an 8 minute read. He basically believes that Maxwell lied in her interview exonerating Trump. There is a tape of the interview, but will it be released, will it be doctored? Thom believes the American people will not fall for the coverup, that it will only enflame the fire. Trump will be seen as a part of the coverup because Maxwell exonerated him and she gets to play softball in a country club prison, the only sex offender to be housed in a minimum-security prison because she lied for Trump.

Blanche, Vance, Comer, Trump are trying to decide how much to release, when to release, what to say, but it will not put out the fire.

Comer is trying to distract. I heard on MSNBC a guest say that the Republican party cannot be called the party of law and order, I screamed. The Republican party is the party that protects sexual predators who rape little girls. Fucking say it.

I thought Blanche was just asking her questions to see what he could get her to say to take blame off Trump and put it on anyone else - ideally a Democrat, but others (eg Richard Branson, Prince Andrew, Bill Gates) would do for them.

when the truth is finally revealed about his involvement in the Epstein child sex horror show, it will be met with a collective shrug by his most ardent supporters, many of whom view older men having sex with underage girls as biblically sanctioned.
