Rachel had Melania's friend Stephanie on the show (the one who just wrote the Melania book)and apparently she secretly taped the conversations she had with Melania (and possibly) others at the WH. Now, Mrs. Krassenstein may be talking about OTHER tapes referring to something else, like trump's conversations about the military Idk....

the tapes will drop at 8:59 eastern time so the trump mouthpieces on Meet the Press won't have a cover story ready. Okay, maybe 8:30 to give the staff time to cue them up.

I've been saying it all day long - this would not have come out if there were not hard evidence - audio, video or both. This is showing his core. I hope that they start to reveal his crimes with evidence.

if this is the beginning, can you only imagine what else is going to come out? And our future President Biden is ready and hitting it out of the ballpark every day. We have had almost four years to prepare for this, Democrats don't let us down!!!!

We have suffered enough, its time to show what America is truly made of.

If anyone is surprised by this shitshow they haven't been paying attention. He basically said as ignorant and disgusting shit about McCain directly to the press as anything in this story... "I like people who weren't captured." Hello is this thing on?

"Grab 'em by the pussy..." and it was suburban white women whose votes put this POS into office.

So, yeah...

While calling our esteemed service men and women "losers" and "suckers" absolutely should be the line in the sand with which no one - NO ONE - puts up, too many still will.

Every time a new heinous revelation comes out, we hold out false hope that this will be the thing that finally brings him down. And it never does.

We're trying to apply logic to that which is illogical. Frankly, I'll believe it when I see it.

That and other sources found at Snopes.com:


Did Trump Call McCain a Loser?
U.S. President Donald Trump said that he "never called John (McCain) a loser," but that isn't true.

Dan Evon

Published 4 September 2020

Correct Attribution

<SNIP>

The article Trump shared in July 2015 was referring to an appearance then-candidate Trump made at the Family Leadership Summit in Iowa. Conservative pollster Frank Luntz asked Trump if it was appropriate for a man running for the country’s highest office to refer to McCain — a war hero and navy pilot who became a prisoner of war after his plane was shot down over Vietnam — as a “dummy.”

Trump said: “He lost [the 2008 election], so I never liked him as much after that because I don’t like losers.”

When Luntz repeated that McCain was a war hero, Trump said: “He’s not a war hero. He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured.”

Heck, they didn't even produce the N-word tapes. Get real.....

That's why I don't believe any of this. If they can't even produce tapes with a racial slur, how can they produce tapes with much more incriminating evidence. And what really sucks about this one, is that if he was using the N-word, it was used numerous times. That is how people are. If they use a derogatory term, it is repeated over and over. They don't just say it one day and don't repeat it. There were numerous opportunities to tape him.

and the account's fans go wild!!!!!!

I can't wait to see the orgasms when someone says what the tapes are about ...

We are reassured that the account has lots of followers, even if it doesn't have a check mark. And presumably we should ignore the fact that it is said to be run by the wife of a man who was kicked off Twitter for manufacturing fake followers.
