While I believe this is the most likely scenario, I also believe Trump will have a meltdown about people even *thinking* he did it.
guys I hate to burst the blowjob bubble but the "blowing Bubba" thing in the Epstein e-mails is very likely to be them making prison rape jokes. Trump is going to prison, therefore Trump is going to have to blow Bubba - the mythical rapey fellow inmate of gross prison jokes by U.S. men.

FULL REPORT: Colombian public media reports
that a U.S. military strike on a boat on September
15—the second attack on a vessel by the U.S. in
the Caribbean that we're aware of—was a
Colombian boat and was in Colombian territorial
waters.
At least one of the three victims extrajudicially
killed in the strike was Colombian lifelong
fisherman Alejandro Carranza. Alejandro's
identity is confirmed by his cousin.
The Colombian boat was adrift and had its
distress signal up due to an engine failure.

Alert to the Attorney General of the Nation. I
request that you act immediately. Grant
immediate protection to the victim families and
associate them, if they wish, with the victims of
Trinidad and Tobago to initiate legal actions in the

Houston police called ICE on a woman who called 911 to report domestic abuse by her ex-husband.
The only reason she didn't get deported is because ICE said there was no one to take custody of her kids, according to the police report. www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...
