So let me get this right, Trump’s plan was:

1. Tariff everything to help the economy (it didn’t)

2. Claim consumers aren’t paying tariffs (we are)

3. Panic & roll back food tariffs b/c you created an affordability crisis (we told you)

Whatever Trump is desperately covering up about Epstein, it’s clearly so bad that he thinks it could destroy him

Seeing a few comments about “dead rapists bringing down living rapists”.

Let’s be clear.

It’s not Epstein that has Trump and MAGA on the defensive. It’s not Epstein that had a former Prince stripped of his title.

It’s the survivors of Epstein’s abuse. It’s the women who refused to be silent.

Donation of collectibles, personal papers, etc. is a voluntary process. No one is required to turn their stuff over to a museum, library, or historical society.

In turn, repositories are not required to house & care for everything they are offered. Curation means saying yes *and* no.

In 2005, Summers said women aren't as mentally equipped to be scientists as men (link below). Harvard didn't fire his ass then.

Now in this 2017 email, he's making an insufferable, faux-clever "joke" about women's supposedly inferior IQ.

He's been garbage for decades.
