The most plausible explanation for first lady Melania Trump’s out-of-the-blue address on the Jeffrey Epstein drama was that she was trying to make it go away.

But her stunning on-camera statement Thursday from the White House Cross Hall — the spot where her husband last week spoke to the nation about the Iran war — will almost certainly have the opposite effect.

“I am not Epstein’s victim. Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump,” she said, in a statement that was all the more remarkable since there had been no widespread public speculation about the matter in recent days.

Streisand effect, they're so dumb both of em. Even if she probably was a victim at some point.

    Right? Husband doesn't seem to achieve much but at least he successfully distracted from the files. Then she held a press conference talking about it. Unless she did it on purpose?

    This part is just wrong. He accomplished a lot. He disabled our systems. He created chaos rather than order and everyone is scrambling to bring order when the money behind the chaos is doing whatever the fuck they want.

    Trump is a symptom of the system. The ruling class has us. They have for awhile. Now they are nickel and diming us until the bubble pops and they have to pay.

    This was orchestrated by his supporters. But he's a fucking moron that just says shocking things.

    My headcanon is that she loathes Trump, was hoping he'd be indicted, and this is her attempt at reviving the newscycle now that Iran had had a ceasefire when she made her announcement.

    It's the wealth. In capitalist "democracy" your level of speech and political representation is directly proportional to your wealth.

    If Melania didn't marry the trust fund pedo, she would just be another faceless victim of the CIA-Mossad pedophile sex trafficking blackmail "intelligence" operation.

    Every time you pledge allegiance, make sure to thank Jesus that your tax dollars are financing psychopathic pedophiles who rape children... because you're the "goodies" of team christianity... and all those poor uneducated religiously-indoctrinated peasants of team islams are the "baddies".

    "I'm not Epstein's victim."

    True, you are not a victim, you are a co-conspirator and deserve the same punishment as the rest of the pedophiles.

    Fuck this person too, supported them all the way until she was the one who got hurt. But i suppose sometimes evil just loses because it eats itself and we can be grateful for those instances.

    Oh for sure. It will be absolutely hilarious though if this happens to be the lynchpin that causes the admin to collapse. Like your buddy uses ICE to deport his wife that knows all of your crimes, how stupid could Paulo be?

  • That's one thing that's so frustrating, it's like they're mocking us. They make it so obvious and I'm like what is going on is 95% of congress just OK with organized serial rape of children???

    Yeah, this was very weird. I mean, there’s photographic evidence that she knew both epstein and maxwell. And what reputation does she actually have that she’s so worried about being sullied? Does she know that some hammer is about to come down on dumpfuck and she’s trying to distance herself (and failing)?

    Knavs was one of Epstein's pimps bringing girls over from Eastern Europe of promises of 'modelling'. This was before she married Trump.

    Amanda Ungaro is telling the world, there is a line up of non-US media.

    I dont understand this at all.

    There was no "speculation" she was involved because there are photos of them partying together.

    Aparently she's given Hunter biden a cease and desist letter because he commented on it?

    Melania's former pimp had ICE deport his ex-wife so he could steal sole custody of their son.

    That woman, now back in Brazil, has been working with journalists to get her story out.

    Melania's trying to get ahead of those stories being released in the coming weeks.

    I’d like to think this is her getting out ahead of something huge that’s about to drop regarding Epstein/Trump. But these people are also so utterly fucking stupid that I really don’t want to give them the benefit of the doubt that there was any real thought that went into this. I almost think this vapid shitstain stumbled onto a comment made about her on some YouTube video, got flustered about it, and then decided to hold a press conference to say how bothered she is.

    A good way to not be swept up in the Epstein Scandal would have been to NOT participate in the trafficking and sexual assault of dozens and dozens of children.

    As far as I'm concerned, she can hang with the rest of the guilty.

    No. There’s an issue between Melanie and that lady they deported. That lady threatened to tell secrets. So Melanie tried to get ahead of it.

    Some people even think the snuff video the President posted was a warning to that lady

    Edit: Melania. iOS keyboard…

    These pictures seem to imply that she was a victim of Epstein. I have my own opinion on this situation, but we should probably hold all of these women to the same standard.

    No. Do not infantilize her. She is not a damsel in distress, she is an adult with a working brain who had enough time to recognize the incredible, incomparable amount of evil she caused and did. I can't believe this comment of yours is still a thing. I refuse to believe this attitude is still common in Blue MAGA. Don't you ever compare or put Melania Trump next to the real victims, what a massive insult to them.

    Her being part of the projecting party, I assume this must be read as: she actually was sold to her husband by Epstein.

    Her vehemence and insistence only amplifies this argument.

    It was as away as possible under the circumstances. She tried to make Iran war and the unhinged threat of destroying whole civilization go away. It still remains to be seen whether she was successful.

    Did she really wanted to sweep it away?

    Because her method was akin to trying to put out a fire by tossing a bucket of gasoline on it.

    I feel like she either is too bmsumb to realise what she did or she might be trying to toss Donnie under a bus. It's just too stupid a "mistake" to make to revive the Epstein files with such a huge event

    There's a theory that Netanyahu made her do it to remind Trump if he leaves the war, then they're going to release some compromat.

    I have to wonder if that was the intent the entire time. She hates her husband after all.
