In a controversial interview on Fox News Sunday, Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance drew a contentious comparison between Vice President Kamala Harris and the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Vance’s remarks were aimed at criticizing Harris’s economic policies and dismissing...
Says the man who is the 2nd man on the ticket of the man borrowing Epsdein's plane.
I would throw all the money at just one reporter who asks JD Vance point blank "Sir, isn't the man you're campaigning with actually borrowing Mr. Epstein's plane right now?" live on the air. The squirming would be glorious.
They never will. They want to protect their access to the candidates and don't want the death threats. I guarantee none of these milquetoast reporters are willing to do that.
Maybe someone like Robert Evens would do it, but he's probably on a "kick out on sight" list for such things.
The plane was liquidated, bought by some random charter plane company, and then Trump hired a charter plane. It's as much news as if I hired a taxi, and the physical car that came over was previously owned by Epstein (bought by that taxi company in a liquidation).
That's what this particular plane issue is. It's nothing. Attack Trump's actual connection to Epstein. Hiring a charter plane that was previously owned by someone else is not that.
No idea why you're in the negatives. Not only that, but it was just one of J.E.'s private planes, of which there are a finite supply of in the country. It's a nothingburger other than the fact that it maybe illustrates just how big of a guy Epstein was
It also proves that Trump's team just doesn't look into anything that the media might consider an issue and use to attack him. Given his drama-laden reactions to some things, I don't think that's a conscious choice but rather incompetence. They just don't consider what might be used to attack him which is also why they always react liktheyve been caught with their pants down, because they are. All the time.
It isn't a real issue, but a lot of media doesn't give a shit about real issues, they make whatever they can an issue because that brings in viewers which in turn means advertising revenue.
It used to be that the staff and campaigns would vet suppliers for this type of thing, no matter how tangential, because it could be used against them.
If there's anything the Republicans have mastered over the last 50+ years, it's how to make something that literally isn't an issue to anyone, an issue to their base. One would think with that mastery they would try to limit that exposure themselves.
Dude the plane was liquidated, bought by some random charter company, and Trump hired a charter plane. It's as much news as if I hired a taxi, and the taxi car that came over was previously owned by Epstein (bought by that taxi company in a liquidation). That's what this particular plane issue is.
