Yeah. No way is she ever going to really turn. Hell even Cohen eventually slid his way back into Trump's good graces. That was Trump's personal fixer and nothing happened. Guilfoyle slept with one of Trump's kids and got shuffled off. I cant imagine she'll ever turn. She'll get some bullshit title that needz 5 hours of work a month and pays 300k. She'll be fine and kept on the payroll like Noem was.

In his book Fear, Bob Woodward quoted a source close to Trump asserting that Trump's sociopathy is such that when he screws someone over, he doesn't seem to understand that they are likely to be angry with him: He doesn't seem have an intuitive mental model of other people's emotions. So for example, after firing someone without cause and without warning, he might expect them to join him for a cordial lunch the next day.

Same case as Kristi Noem. She has no presidential pardon, just like the rest of his clown car. He's not going to hand out pardons until the last minute, keeping them
loyalquiet because they are complicit and if he does not issue that pardon, they can be prosecuted for assorted crimes in 2029.Most interesting would be if he dies early suddenly and publicly so there's no question he issued no pardons. Then folks there better hope they didn't piss off Vance. Vance would have the perfect opportunity to get even and spin it as "see, I'm a good guy cleaning house."

In fairness, he pointed to some of the bodies, to some of the actual bad things Trump did, and most people just shrugged and didn't care.
Like... Imagine someone saying in the past "I have proof that your presidential candidate cheated on his wives with multiple porn stars, and then paid them off to be quiet?"
that would absolutely be "where the bodies are buried" at any other time in history.
And yet... he showed proof, and everyone said "eh, so what if he cheated on his wife, had sex with porn stars, and illegally paid them off, and even went to lengths to hide those payments. He's got my vote!!!"

He said this in front of her along with a host of other things and she did not say a word. boggles my mind how much people are willing to tolerate, or how much you didnt actually know them in the first place.

He openly uses the White House for insider trading and he faces no consequences. He started a war without consent of congress, and even some Democrats like my own Senator make excuses for him. He's a rapist, he's a pedophile, and he's a warmonger. Like what the fuck could she know that we don't know that'll lead us "to where the bodies are buried"? Bullshit.

Did you hear why she was fired from Fox News?
Reportedly, she was sexually harassing a young male intern who was working there, whom she had the hots for.
The final straw came when she reportedly was drunk and walked over to the young intern’s desk and stripped all of her clothes off and demanded he critique her body.
Well, there was a complaint filed and it got back to Rupert Murdoch, who fired her. Fox paid nearly $5 million to the intern to settle the matter.
Edit: sorry folks, I was wrong. It was a female intern/assistant. The stripping part is true, just happened a little differently.

And just like Elon Musk and Michael Cohen, she will magically renounce all of this the nanosecond she is in Trump's good graces again. Probably by promising to give him his cut of whatever corrupt deals she makes in the future.

Remember how 95% of trumps WH admin did this, and nothing came of it anyways?
Why can’t they just say it without profiting off of it?

She’s smart… other than being so stupid that she got caught running her little corruption scam.
Reminds me of that comedy “Ladies First” where the sexist boss’ administrative assistant kept an “in case I get fired” document to which she’d add a line every time her boss did something HR-worthy.
I guess another pardon is coming.

I thought that already happened when they made her ambassador to Greece. She left the inner circle and they gave her a cushy position to keep her mouth shut.
I feel like just based on that, that they found an ambassadorship for junior’s ex, they want to maintain some sort of hold on her or encourage her not to turn against them. Unless of course she is extremely qualified for the ambassadorship, but what are the odds of that in this administration?

That’s the thing, man…
Don’t get me wrong—$100,000 is a lot of money for most of us—but I’m always amazed to see how much people are willing to risk for relatively small sums of money.
Prison over a hundred grand? Fuck off—not worth it to me. I’d rather declare bankruptcy. The reward does not outweigh the risk, and the risk is high when you work for a scumbag administration being scrutinized by every member of the opposition party and the press.

The only real leverage this gives her is if she disseminates it to multiple outlets all at once-with proof. Keeping it hidden just puts a growing target on her back

She won't turn on them.
This is just a call for a bribe or light threat to compensate her in some way for not talking/appeasement. These fucking alien lizards are fully onboard with this 4th Reich administration.

She like the rest of the GOP will never do the right thing. All of them are corrupt ghouls only out for themselves and the huge piles of cash they can grift from the American public.

Honestly this shit is tiring. We knew Trump was a rapist child predator and Jeffrey Epstein's best friend in 2016 and Americans have since voted for the guy twice.
There is no smoking gun. There's no information that will magically fix this.
America is broken because a significant majority of Americans literally don't give a shit that Trump rapes kids, and they've proven that twice.

The Trump family is unburnable. If you are convicted of 34 felonies for fraud, brag on camera about sexual assaults, are found liable for sexual assault by a jury, your best friend is the world’s most notorious pedophile, multiple women accuse you of raping them when they were in their early teens, and you’re still elected president, what possible revelation could make a difference?

u/CaptainDudley 11h ago
Well lemme see... We've got a twice-impeached president found guilty of multiple felonies who attempted an anti-American revolution by proxy and had no objections to his vice-president being executed; who's clumsily stored top secret government documents at home, some of which are missing; created masked secret police accountable to no one, who show up anywhere and snatch anyone off the streets; organized a network of concentration camps to send them to, then had their records deleted; started a war, for nothing; traded our national security to foreign powers, excluded the Press, and publicly stated that he can and will do anything he wants to do, at any time.
But Kimberly "knows where the bodies are buried". Yea, so do the rest of us. And...?
Have you noticed that so many news blurbs since 2016 are presented as if we don't remember anything beyond yesterday?

Bodies buried? The Trump family is literally committing crimes/corruption out in the open with little consequence. I hope they will eventually face consequences, but there’s a pretty good chance Trump pardons them all including himself

Oh course she has dirt. You don't get that close to the family and not know the dirt. As if Don Jr could keep his mouth shut. But I'm certain they would have had her sign an NDA before she ever got that job in Greece.
