A friend called me today to ask what I thought of the Epstein mess. I told him, first thing, that if we have to throw Bill Clinton over the gunwale, well, we’d just have to do it. That horndog got the biggest free pass in the world when he evaded significant punishment about Monica. He doesn’t get another.
But as we talked, I started to sort out my own thinking about it, and I think it’s this:
There are some who will think that any revelation of the Epstein affair that doesn’t include a photo of the president getting a BJ from a 13-year-old means he’s innocent, free, in the clear. I figure, if he was so innocent, he’d have had them printed on placemats at Chick-fil-A by now. But honestly, I think what’s going to be revealed, if anything, is something closer to this:
Epstein was rich, Trump is rich, they hang out with other rich people, and rich people don’t think rules apply to them. Any rules, at least behind closed doors. So what will likely emerge is a picture of Epstein as a guy who knew everyone, invited everyone to his parties, had his young masseuses passing canapés and occasionally slipping off to massage or bang this or that guest, and everybody knew what was happening, and further, no one said a word about it. Because they’re rich. Even if they didn’t participate, even if they disapproved, they wouldn’t say boo. Did they see anything directly? No. And it would just make a big mess for everyone, and after all, everybody’s rich. It would break the code.
Trump was ankle-deep, knee-deep, neck-deep in all this, I’d be willing to bet. Every day was “a wonderful secret,” the secret being that they could fuck young teens with impunity.
After all, Trump married a sex worker, maybe two of them. This is going to bother him? Not a chance.The rules are different for people like him, as we’ve all seen.
OK, so life is starting to return to normal. After my week of vacation, I had a week of pedal-to-metal work, then a long weekend of more work, then this week, and I’m hoping that things will settle next. I have enrolled in a creative-writing class at Wayne State, as a “non-matriculating student,” i.e. an auditor, and I have to read, write and prep for twice-weekly classes. My lifeguarding starts up again, in the early mornings instead of evenings, at least this semester. So I have, as they say, a lot on my plate.
But I will continue to show up here. So forward, into the fall, eh?

I’m convinced that Melania was a former sex worker. She may have been a high priced one at that. She married Trump for his Sugar Daddy status because what else would she see in him? And in return he pulled her out of the gutter so to speak, it cost him a lot for connections in the fashion world, which he paid handsomely to do through Vogue and other avenues. She had her anchor baby and brought her parents and sister here too, so she was successful in what she set out to do in the way that she was able to do because she was incredibly beautiful. Was she involved with Epstein, of course, did he introduce her to Trump, maybe? Probably? I speculate that she’s Trump’s dominatrix, because why not? She hates him but it works for her and him both. Is any of this true? Who knows? But if MAGA can speculate about anyone they want, so can I. I’m sick of when they go low we go high. We can call them scum, if they can. Sorry to say any of this, I really am. Things have gotten to below the bottom of the barrel.
