You just have to wonder, do elected Republicans EVER get tired of Trump threatening them the second they do something he disagrees with? Do they ever feel like soulless cowards when they remain silent while he does it to others? Is holding onto their office worth the debasement?

"What did Trump think Epstein was 'stealing' these girls for? Epstein did not own a resort hotel. The answer is that he was recruiting them for his sex trafficking operation. The idea that Trump would have had any uncertainty on that point is absurd." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social
