Is he dating the Epstein files? The fucking president of the country doesn’t get the luxury of space, he is beholden to the office to answer to the people. What a joke of a country.
Politicians are public property. Property doesn’t get fucking ‘space’.
Johnson just let the world know that he sides with child rapists. May the next Saint Crooks have better aim, and start with Johnson
The guy who shares his porn-browsing history with his adopted son and takes his young teen daughter to purity balls is protecting a kiddie creeper?
Sounds about right…
It must be so hard suffering the mildest of consequences of your own actions.
your own horrific actions
“So-called Christian helps to cover up a giant pedophile ring”
Isn’t that a fairly normal thing for Christians?
They built a huge organisation that’s been around for over 1000 years just for the purpose.
So normal we already know the justification: for the glory of God 🙄
Story as old as religion itself
He’s the president. He doesn’t get space. Ever.
That’s literally the job of the president. It’s not luxury. It’s work.
But this jackass in the oval office has never worked a day in his entire fucking life and doesn’t understand that concept.
Even if he does get space: it’s not the job of the speaker of the fucking house to give him space from investigations. The house is supposed to investigate!
If you add up all the work he’s done throughout his whole life, it might add up to about a day.
Here I am, regularly feeling guilty about whether maybe I accidentally insulted someone with my autism, while people like these lie openly, constantly and with impunity. A conscience really is a goddamn hindrance in this world rather than a net positive.

Sort of. People without a conscience and without the power, privilege and/or social tools to abuse that often also end up pretty badly. Like how narcissism can lead both to (unwanted) social isolation, or even prison time, and then also sometimes to a successful business/political career or creating your own adoring cult, depending on other factors, both intrinsic and extrinsic to the person.
I’d say the lack of a conscience is the real hindrance. If more people cared about the consequences of their actions, we’d be in a better place. It’s just a shame so many psychopaths are able to flourish.
The space Trump actually needs is a 3x4m prison cell.
Damn you’re generous
As long as it has proper bars on the window, a solid door, prison food, and no wifi I’m generous.
Make that feet and we have a deal.
Last week: “We need to release the files.”
This week: “Dear leader said no. I never implied anything different.”
Those children needed space too.
Trump needs ‘space’ for a specific purpose: avoiding the consequences of his crimes. Republicans are always ready to give him that space.
Plenty of “space” on golf course.
Do your job. Oh wait. You are. Protecting yer guy.
I think he didn’t realize how many of his donors don’t want the list released. I bet there’s a good number of billionaires on the list.
Protecting himself. Trump is not the only one involved.
Yes, I agree, Mike. Airlock, it is.
The more he runs away from this the more likely that nobody will believe whatever explanation he lands on to dismiss it. Even if there really isn’t a list, and he really isn’t on it, and they present some evidence that proves it conclusively, there’s zero shot anyone will believe it.
The conspiracy vibes are so strong that even reality couldn’t kill them.
Oh, good. For a moment there it almost seemed like Johnson had a spine.
Never trust anything they say, it was pure posturing. Judge them for their actions, or lack of them. So when one of those inbred sycophants says they are going against Trump, don’t believe them until they actually do (which will be never).
So I think this is actually a little bit of a naive viewpoint. The next level beyond it is to consider why they’re saying something. You don’t have to assume they’re telling the truth, but politicians say things for a strategically chosen reason.
I do think the fact that Johnson even piped up about the Epstein files is meaningful. There is a break in the thinking between the coalitions of the Republican parties. Johnson was probably trying to woo some of them, got pressured, and then backed off. But even the fact that he had to be pressured means they had to expend effort to keep him in line. That can’t keep working forever.
Which is also why I think the Epstein files are no mere distraction. There is a breakdown, and they’re not easily falling in line.
He was willing until his donors told him it would be bad for them as well.

Awww does the felonious pedophile need space???
You can’t distance yourself without space.
I know where there is lots of space…
Presidents don’t “get space”.
