Trump administration officials are perplexed, as many people are, by House Speaker Mike Johnson’s claims that Donald Trump was an FBI informant in the case against Jeffrey Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on charges he sexually abused and trafficked scores of underage girls. The president and Epstein had a well-documented friendship.
It is Johnson’s attempt to make sense of Trumps involvement with Epstein. Johnson is so narrowminded (like most MAGA-heads) that the fact that Trump is actually a criminal on several layers (con-man, tax cheater, pedophile, …) simply does not register with him. There has to be another explanation (in his mind) for Trumps involvement with crime, and all that is left for his little brain is to think that Trump must have been an Informant. This also levels up Trump as a kind-of hero, justifying Johnsons worship.
So Trump is shy that if he releases the Epstein everyone will see how much of a hero he is and Trump is too modest for that. All makes sense now thanks
At least to them, yes. The MAGA brains would swallow such a lie hook, line, and sinker. And fishing rod, angler, and boat.
The real Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Johnson knows, because he’s covering for the crimes of MANY MAGAs, including himself. He knows Trump is guilty of all of it, including stuff we don’t even know about, but he knows that the MAGA Morons need an excuse, any excuse, no matter how outlandish, so he’s giving them one. It doesn’t even have to be plausible, it just has to come from someone trustworthy (in their minds) that they can quote.
“He was hanging with the pedos because he was investigating them!”
Yeah, pal, I’ve heard that one before. Pull the other one, it’s got bells on.
He’s so desperate for a narrative he has trump performing an actual job in his scenario.
