Wat's Trump Hiding Now?

Trump's retweeting a fake conspiracy theory about the Clintons. Is he hiding something like his own involvement in getting rid of a witness to his own crime? After all his Attorney General Barr is leading the investigation and has previously supported Trump's positions in order to get that job.

He isn't hiding, he is hosing the mainstream media with a constant stream of lies, conspiracy theories, and propoganda. So everybody gets used to it and just switches off. Too tired to disprove every single lie... It is a tactic Putin's Russia apparently uses regularly.

Trump is just following his form. Constant distraction, waste the energy of those who disagree with too much for them to cover.

Is this related to the convenient suicide in prison of a notorious groping financier ?

The answer is almost certainly "no," but I'm more than happy to let y'all think this time will surely be the end of Drumpf if it means there will be real, ideally bipartisan political pressure to dig into Epstein.
I loathe that it takes the possibility of the Clintons going down to get the mainstream right to look at it, and that it takes the possibility of Trump going down to get the mainstream left to look at it, but that's better than nothing so I'll take it. Maybe the rats on both sides will start frying each other. Wouldn't that be great?

@Carl Tuckerson ~~ I reside in the fortunate Antipodes & was blissfully unaware (until recently) of the possible existence in the media/chattering political society of the USA of a prophet/ranting babbler going by the name of Tucker Carlson & after recoiling from what I heard this blighter babble my clockwork brain switched to the thought that your player name.. Carl Tuckerson would be an excellent name for a satirical parody character & .,..that was as far as I got.with it all, as some other contemplation, duty or pleasure distracted my attention.

Trump can be blamed for Epstein's death in that his hiring freeze meant fewer guards at the prison, those that were there were working 18 hour shifts, and that untrained cooks and others were being used for guards.

Whether someone took advantage of the lack of checkups and watching Epstein is still unknown. Trump heads the lists of those that would fear his testimony.

Trump has carefully cultivated a reputation for being an extremely bad liar, which makes him far more trustworthy than most politicians whom people (quite correctly) assume are very good liars. You can trust Trump, it is reasoned, because you can spot his lies a mile away. Much like a parent, who has told their child his eyes glow slightly when he lies, can confidently predict that their child is lying when he's insisting that the dog broke the vase whilst keeping his eyes firmly shut.

The problem is that Trump is a far better liar than most politicians.

That's where it comes from; I "created" the handle one night after a lot of drinking when I found it deeply funny that you could rearrange his name a bunch of different ways to get plausible sounding names. I do like his show but I'm not above taking the piss out of a guy's name for humor's sake
