I listened to POTUS talking to reporters this morning about Acosta, and I swear he said Acosta was good, not great. Anyone else hear that?

You are so wrong so wrong on every count Epstein was an informant for the FBI can you say Clapper can you say Brennan. This is going to work out very well for Trump if these FBI guys let young girls get raped while they got information on their political enemies at the very least not another word will be said about Acosta from the left.

Why do you think Bill Clinton was able to get away with all this with Epstein for so long Brennan and Clapper no doubt had all kinds of information from Epstein on Republicans

>>>ou are so wrong so wrong on every count

Actually - I'm not wrong at all. I'm absolutely right. I'm spot on. I included your scenario when I said: "unless the JE case breaks hard against huge dems." Bill Clinton and Epstein being an FBI informant and doing what he did and Clapper and Brennan being exposed would also count. Those are all huge dems...and it would impale the Obama administration - which are full of huge dems.

I have REPEATEDLY said this over the past week...and I will say it once again: this ends in one of two ways: spectacularly good - or spectacularly bad. There is no middle ground. In order for it to end very well for Trump - huge dems must be implicated in Epstein Island and his web and Trump needs some way of taking credit (basically - Q has to be real and right). The news and evidence of him being an informant must be overwhelming and undeniable so that the deep state and the MSM can't bury it. IOW - members of the deep state have to go to jail (AGAIN - Clinton, Clapper and Brennan would count).

It goes horribly bad if only small fish go to jail - people that most soccer moms have never heard of - people that most women who watch "the view" have never heard of. If that happens - The Acosta pick, along with Trump's sexual "exploits" - his modeling agency and "the tape" will be non-stop news until November 2020. Bank on it.

There is no "in-between" to this story. And as of right now - you cannot guarantee 100% that it will break out to the positive and work out the way we want it to. If you are so positive - then freepmail me - we'll make a little side-wager - but you have to give me 100:1 odds (because those are the odds of a sure winner). It is a bet I will gladly lose to win my country back.

With Comey’s daughter prosecuting the Epstein case, I seriously doubt any Democrats will get outed, charged, or convicted. No, she’ll focus on Trump since he fired her daddy.

Where are the Republicans demanding that Comey's daughter needs to recuse herself before this case even starts? It is infuriating.
