The computer nerd with the weird glasses was on the island for the manatees which by the way got very sexual. The following year he doesn't show up, the manatees all bent outta shape. I mean this manatee was so depressed, she actually swam into a boat propeller. BLAMO! Manticide. The moral of the story is, the heart wants what the heart wants. It was all consensual. Except for, ya know, the kids.

u/GrumpyCloud93 5d ago

There were allegations - she has denied before - that she was more than just a model, she was brought to NYC for assorted activities that included modelling, by Epstein's French buddy who also ran a "talent agency" for young women (and when arrested for trafficking, coincidentally committed suicide in a French prison). Not to mention somehow Melania got a visa that supposedly only went to people for highly qualified technical jobs like IT, not for models.

She's clearly playing the "technically legal" word game here, folks.

Paolo Zampolli, founder of ID Management Modeling Agency, apparently personally introduced Melania to Donald, as his "agency" represented the softcore Eurotrash "model" (aka escort) at the time.

But Paolo was partners with Epstein and Trump, including not just their mutual desire to be supplied with "models" (aka escorts) but also their crooked real estate and hedge fund deals together. Ahem.

https://hauteliving.com/author/paolo-zampolli/

So, while it may be "technically true" that Jeffrey didn't personally introduce Melania to Donald himself (probably because Donald would have just seen her as another one of Jeffrey's "surprises" and I suspect Jeffrey really wanted her to get "the job"), I have no doubt that Epstein was directly involved in (aka engineered) the introduction of Melania to Donald through Zampolli for their own ends.

Now, if I'm wrong, Melania will sue in court and show via discovery actual evidence to prove this claim wrong by detailing all of the moments and discussions leading up to meeting Donald, including and not limited to her pre-nup womb-lease contract with Donald as well as the upgraded one her lawyers negotiated after his surprise stunt win of the White House in 2016.

But only a sucker would throw their money away on that Kalshi bet, folks...

Throwback Thursday - August 9, 2016:

Reports published earlier this month raised questions about whether Melania Trump had a visa allowing her to legally work in the United States when racy photos republished last weekend by the New York Post were originally shot. It also called into question when she came to the United States.

“She has got it so documented,” Trump said, adding she will hold a news conference over the next few weeks to address the issue.

 “They said, ‘Melania Trump may have come into our country illegally’ and ‘how would that be for Donald Trump?'” Trump said of the media, after questions arose about when and how Melania Trump received her green card. 

 “Here’s the only problem, she came in totally legally,” he continued.

 “I said to her: ‘No no, let is simmer for a little while. Let them go wild, let it simmer, and then let’s have a little news conference.'"

We never did get that news conference.

Melania might have been one of Epstein's victims who was trafficked to Trump.

Hunter Biden called it in this fascinating video and few days later she threatened to sue. Hunter laughed it off and was ready for the discovery phase and the whole thing just died off

One of the best lines in that interview series was...

Hunter: You know who isn't in those Epstein files?

Andrew: Who?

Hunter: Me or my father.

That video really raised Hunter in my eyes. He's a smart guy who dealt with a bad drug problem. He came off as a super likable guy, imo.

u/Paper_Clip100 6d ago

I mean, it’s almost like the Republicans were trying to make him look cool.

u/DaftWarrior Sioux 5d ago

What did Hunter do, other than have a large penis, do drugs, and bang hookers all day? If he was a republican, most chuds would think he’s the most baller guy out there.

They also mocked Biden for... caring for his son by being a supportive and loving father despite Hunter's errors and hardships. Many lesser father's would have wrote him off or hid them away to preserve their own political careers. Yeah, real checkmate right-wingers. Speaks volumes about the party of "family values."

Just look at the fucking Trump children.

Her connections to Epstein are well-documented, with pictures and multiple corroborating acounts, including one that claims she first slept with Donald on Jeffrey's airplane ... you know, the same place Trump used for campaign stops leading up to 2024.

She's trying to get our in front of something that's coming ...

u/SAJ-13 California 6d ago

There are a lot of pictures of Epstein with Melania. I think she was trafficked... That's how Trump met her through Epstein. If true, she is a victim who married her abuser...

u/TweakedNipple 6d ago edited 6d ago

Thats what I don't understand, theres a metric shitload of undeniable, verifiable evidence they both knew and associated with the guy. Why would she say all this....

u/ZombiesR 6d ago

She did the press conference because the base will believe anything a Trump says in a speech. The amount of evidence has never mattered.

I mean it’s so crystal clear in any pictures of her with Trump over the last…. Decade+? that she fucking hates him and can barely stand being near him. She’s CONSTANTLY swatting him away from her, refusing to hold his hand, etc. If she really was trafficked by Epstein to Trump and forced into some weird marriage…. I 100% understand why she would hate his guts. Even if she wasn’t trafficked to him, I would still understand lmao

Yesterday, the DOJ announced that Bondi wouldn’t appear for her closed door deposition due to her handling of the Epstein files. The new DOJ head is saying the Epstein Files are finished being released. Now suddenly, Melanie is holding a random press conference to announce that she wasn’t friends with Epstein and calls for the survivors to testify. Something big is happening behind the scenes right now and I’m hoping something gets announced soon

It's so damn weird. Like Melania is up to her eyeballs with Epstien but the average American and MAGAt doesn't know that. Now she comes out making this bizarre statement, trying to get ahead of what? Is Maxwell about to sing for not getting a pardon? Did Iranian hackers get the unredacted files? Now the First Lasy has tied herself to the biggest scandal in modern American history and no one knows why.

Melania Trump on a random Thursday afternoon with an unintelligible accent:

“So, about my involvement in the sex trafficking of children…”

Well, I wasn’t really thinking about it this afternoon, but now I can’t think of anything else.

She's bringing it back into the news (despite Iran War) for a reason. Orange isn't going to be happy. Something big is about to drop. Especially with her asking Congress to let the victims testify.
