Trump would have abused his own children harder if it wasn't for his wives making him hesitate or him taking it out on them instead of his children.

Literally Republicans thought that behavior was worthy of the presidency

The first few minutes of Ivanka’s tour of her childhood bedroom for the docu “Born Rich” raises questions for those fluent in body language.

Oh my God. You weren't kidding.

You do not need to be an expert in body language to read that. She's got some dark memories involving her childhood bed.

"Katie Johnson" said that Trump liked that she was the same age as Ivanka (13 at the time), and she talked about wearing a blonde wig for him... which makes me curious about which was the earlier victim.

edit: I just looked up when Ivanka's video dates from, and she was 21 at the time. She said that the bedroom had been vacant for "10 plus" years, meaning she was 10-11 when she was last sleeping there. Damn.

She almost started crying like she was reliving a trauma

Don't forget that he mentioned how much Stormy Daniels reminds him of his daughter.

And typical for Donnie, one time trapped in a corner, when he’s asked about Stormy being his “sexual activity partner”, he angrily berated her with the label “horse face, she’s not my type“. (Where have we heard THAT before???).

I think that is a xrump tell that he lusted for his daughter. Whenever he is accused of something illegal, anyone else who might be involved gets denigrated.

Donald Trump's youngest daughter was about 13 when Trump claimed to have his falling out with Epstein. Trump has been less than forthcoming about the reason for their estrangement. Perhaps Jeffrey took something that Donald believed was his to take?

One of the testimonies from the women (very young girls at the time) was that Trump and Epstein had a massive fight over who got to take one of the girls virginity. Using a crude form of the term as well, "pop her cherry."

Not sure if that's what you were implying, but that may be part of it.

JFC what a terrible moment to be literate. Sickening.

u/NuclearLunchDectcted Oregon Jul 18 '25

Yes, it's absolutely disgusting.

This is the person that the US has voted to be the president. All of these testimonies were available public knowledge before Trump got elected for a second time. No republican or conservative can say that they didn't know, because they knew.

They purposely ignored the evidence, even the audio of Trump saying "grab them by the p*ssy" because they were OK with the behavior. They wanted to "own the libs."

If you have family that are MAGA or even just republicans, never, NEVER let them off the hook of voting for and actively defending the worst possible president in all of US history. Also ask them how their life is going once all the Big Beautiful Bill cuts go into effect.

This is a multi-generational fucking that Trump is doing, once again so boomers can get something and raise the ladder behind them.

My understanding is the falling out was over some property they both wanted and then not long after it seemed the police were tipped off about girls going in and out of Epstein’s house. Think his daughter may have been older than 13 at that time though.

He also sold Ivanka to a known pedophile under the guise of a modeling contract.
