That's what happens when they ask about the Epstein files again (twitter.com)

While I'm still livid at him over the whole Epstein thing, it is amusing watching a president flip someone off.

It does make one wonder what's the best for statemen like Trump to engage hecklers.

Flipping them off is likely cathartic. But also doesn't seem statesmenlike & beneath the office you hold.

Stopping to engage with them gives them legitimacy.

Simply pretending you don't hear them makes you seem weak, uncaring, distant, etc.

Comedians love to grab the mic to deny hecklers their veto. But that's a very different scenario & setting.

There is the alternative of standing quietly and looking ashamed, like Biden did before winning the primaries when someone heckled him about his son being a crackhead.

Orange man brought it all on himself but it's a bit disingenuous seeing as the dude shouted "pedophile defender." He isn't asking about the Epstein files. He didn't shout "why hasn't your DOJ complied with the lawful order to disclose everything they have?" Hard to expect any other response even if it's his own fault he is in this situation.

Yeah, people too often forget that it's entirely possible for both sides to be awful, and that one side can still be more than the other.

Even though it's certainly possible via the Epstein coverup that Trump is a PDF himself, anyone shouting or writing "pedo" as their first line of attack against Zognald is still a decent filter for your standard TDS leftist who doesn't hate Drumpf for the right reasons. And hence their opinions can be instantly discarded.

Agreed. It kind of screams "I am harping on this for political reasons after being quiet about it for 4 years like a good little boy."

His administration hasn't made a single Epstein file related arrest and he hasn't fired anyone, so yeah his administration and himself are pedophile defenders.

He also let an Israel spy head, without diplomatic credentials, who was in Las Vegas on unofficial business, flee the country when caught in a child sex ring earlier this year.

He also, in his first term, did not retaliate against the Vatican by expelling consular or diplomatic staff when they did not wave diplomatic immunity for their Archbishop being a child molester and adult rapist, and instead recalled him to Rome to give him a slap on the wrist.

Trump is weak on this, though it isn't like our alternatives were better, they weren't

Trump knows his time is running out as Democrats will impeach him again when they retake Congress, likely over Epstein. That's why he's been pushing his Project 2025 agenda on nightmare mode lately.
