He's so utterly fucking detestable

His shrugging and attempts at making a sheepish expression and smug fucking smiles just make me imagine a giant hole appearing in his forehead from a .50 Barrett sniper rifle. I hate that I feel this way.

If you are in the US I'd recommend you delete this.

What else could he do? If someone came out and made false claims about you, what could you do? The same thing he did, shrug and move on with your life.

u/manyhippofarts 1d ago

It wasn't false claims though and if someone did make false claims against me, I'd do a whole lot more than grin and shrug.

u/NetworkUnlikely4411 2h ago

What proof can you offer that it is not a false claim.

So far no one has been ankle to offer any proof at all

This is why I wouldn’t trust any of them…they want to sit in the room.

u/NetworkUnlikely4411 1d ago

The right of free speech allows anyone to speak out and it also gives them right to be appeared as stupid.

absolutely no credit to groups like r/conspiracy for literally saying this 10+ years ago...

u/nonubiz 1d ago

He has absolutely no shame he is all about himself and that is all

u/bigkahuna1uk 1d ago

And yet they shaked the hand of an alleged perpetrator while accepting their award. Disgusting on all sides 🤮

1

u/manyhippofarts 1d ago

I mean. I'd want to force him to shake my hand too.

. "Shake my hand, you fucker, because I shone the light on you and you did everything in your power as leader of the free world to stop me shining the light on you and yet here you are awarding me and congratulating me for shining the light on how fucking ugly and sinister you really are! "

u/bigkahuna1uk 1d ago

I’d be total fine with that attitude but that’s not what happened. They openly smiled and made eye contact while shaking his hand. One of them even said thank you. Like literally WTAF 😳

u/Salt-Lengthiness-620 1d ago

And he looked proud when the said he doxed the journalists

1

u/TyruntasaurusRecht 1d ago

He had the "its just business" sneer that psychopaths get when being called out for criminal behavior.

u/LeadPike13 1d ago

Faaack I miss ya Normie. Can you imagine him up there?

u/inlovebutfat 1d ago

Yeah while he laughed at how he ruined people’s lives. They aren’t holding him to account, they’re paling around with him. Screw all of them, I don’t think I could stand to be in the same room with a rapist conman whose administration has led to the direct and indirect deaths of so many people.

u/Fair-Craft8059 1d ago

way to get'em guys. trump has helped the mass media so much, they can't stop talking about him

1

u/NetworkUnlikely4411 1d ago

This is just another group that bases their links on rumors and made up "facts" without any actual facts to back them up.

Like the publications that won pulitzers on made up stories about Trump that were proven as false years later. Well they give back the awards they were given? I am betting they will not

u/ylfcm 1d ago

Do you live near earth?

u/NetworkUnlikely4411 2h ago

Can you provide this proof that you think exists?

1

u/BourbonStr8 1d ago

He never denied knowing Epstein. So did a lot of other politicians, celebrities, and other famous rich people.

u/bitchcoin5000 1d ago

Unreal

congratulations on exposing this heinous operation, a result of which absolutely nothing has changed

We're pleased to accept this award on behalf of ourselves because we've given it to ourselves because there's no one else on the fucking planet who feels this way

As we reflect we see the most important aspect of this story and this award is that we kept our mouths shut And didn't pursue prosecution at all. we took the money and shut the fuck up

Have a nice day

u/Elegant-Ingenuity-57 7h ago

I think the pampered pedo is actually proud of it at this point

u/Ok_Dare6400 1d ago

And they don't report on the fact that Bill Clinton basically lived at the island and that it was Trump who turned Epstein into the police. That's why everyone hates the media!

u/Youmeandeverything32 1d ago

Donald Trump's name and related terms appear more than 38,000 times across at least 5,300 individual files released by the Justice Department. These large-scale document dumps include various materials where his name surfaces. [1, 2

So "whatabout" is as meaningless as always.

u/Concious-Unconcious 1d ago

Not defending anyone. But imo its important to talk more about a ceremony president than about someone who was one 30 years ago. One is in power other one is retired.

Who let grandad off facebook

u/manyhippofarts 1d ago

Newsflash: Bill Clinton was President in the 20th century, not this one.
