    Last week: “We need to release the files.”

    This week: “Dear leader said no. I never implied anything different.”

    The more he runs away from this the more likely that nobody will believe whatever explanation he lands on to dismiss it. Even if there really isn’t a list, and he really isn’t on it, and they present some evidence that proves it conclusively, there’s zero shot anyone will believe it.

    The conspiracy vibes are so strong that even reality couldn’t kill them.

    Actually, Michael, what he needs is to be fully outed as one of the pedos his base so vehemently abhors.

    If by space you mean being thrown into a black hole then yeah. But seriously trumps a child fucker and the GOP is trying to hide it.

    Is he dating the Epstein files? The fucking president of the country doesn’t get the luxury of space, he is beholden to the office to answer to the people. What a joke of a country.

      Politicians are public property. Property doesn’t get fucking ‘space’.

      Johnson just let the world know that he sides with child rapists. May the next Saint Crooks have better aim, and start with Johnson

        The guy who shares his porn-browsing history with his adopted son and takes his young teen daughter to purity balls is protecting a kiddie creeper?

        Sounds about right…

    Here I am, regularly feeling guilty about whether maybe I accidentally insulted someone with my autism, while people like these lie openly, constantly and with impunity. A conscience really is a goddamn hindrance in this world rather than a net positive.

      Sort of. People without a conscience and without the power, privilege and/or social tools to abuse that often also end up pretty badly. Like how narcissism can lead both to (unwanted) social isolation, or even prison time, and then also sometimes to a successful business/political career or creating your own adoring cult, depending on other factors, both intrinsic and extrinsic to the person.

      I’d say the lack of a conscience is the real hindrance. If more people cared about the consequences of their actions, we’d be in a better place. It’s just a shame so many psychopaths are able to flourish.
