I guess that's a fair line of attack that definitely won't come back to bite them in the ass.

After all, being compared to Jeffrey Epstein is so much worse than being good friends with the actual Jeffrey Epstein.

And definitely nowhere near as bad as inviting him to parties at your Florida resort.

Like Epstein huh? So she and Trump are good friends now?

Of all of the people to remind us of, VD Jance really picked Trump’s old pal. He’s somehow worse than Sarah Palin at campaigning

Yes, Trump is winning. Vote on that assumption.

Well he will win if you don’t vote.

If people in NC and GA vote like they did for Biden and Cooper it will take serious pressure off PA and WI.

That’s why you assume he wins. People thought Clinton was going to beat Trump so they didn’t vote.

It's pretty weird comparing your boss's latest crush to your boss's long time friend.🤷

Listen, in JD’s defense, he’s very bad at this and kind of sucks.

You make a good point. When you put it that way, MAGA! TRUMP 2024! THEY'RE BAD AT THIS AND KIND OF SUCK!

That's the best he can do? The second hand embarrassment just doesn't stop.

Sssssshhhhh!!!! Let them live in their fantasy world until election day.

Epstein would be the last person I would bring up if I was on Trump's campaign. But as Napoleon wisely said, let's not interrupt them.

My take is that vance is jealous he didn't get some time with epstein.

Ahh, the good old Republican "projection" method.

“Giving Kamala Harris control over inflation policy, it’s like giving Jeffrey Epstein control over human trafficking policy,” Vance told host Shannon Bream

Just wondering is Vance the first pick as VP or was he the only one that accepted?

I think JD Vance will lose Donald Trump their election, but he is going to turn it around and pretend to be a hero who saved democracy, maybe publish a book about it too.

Have people forgotten how confident everyone was in 2016 that Clinton was going to win?

So yeah, absolutely assume all polls are fake.

We can just assume a poll is a poll. Like have you never seen Family Feud or played it? Just because 50 of 100 Americans thinks Harris will win doesn't make that based in reality. It's not that polls are "fake" per se, it's that polls are an attempt at a limited small scale model and not always predictive.

No, I haven't forgotten it because it isn't true. I was in no way confident. I know many others who were not confident.

Hopeful maybe, but not confident.

A lot of people were

A lot of people is not everyone. You said it was everyone.

A lot of people are confident in every election that the candidate they vote for will win. That is not special.

In 2012 or 2020 I don't remember most people being anywhere near that confident that either candidate will win as in 2016.

Memory is a funny thing.

And "most people" (I would like to see some evidence of this) is also not everyone.

TBF, Trump and Bill Barr did suicide Epstein.

Seems like Epstein should be the equivalent of Voldemort, he who must not be named.
