And that Trump can somehow reveal this to the public in a way that would ruin him.

The one it's not acceptable for is TFG.

So the so-called POTUS would resort to blackmail.

A bunch of years ago, slightly pre-Trump 1 (or whatever we're calling it), there were half-turgid rumors of male escorts in DC ready to share some of the more salacious details of their encounters with L.G....along with pertinent identifying anatomical details to demonstrate their bona fides. Then nothing more was heard, at least in public.

Remember, a fig leaf is just another kind of cover-up!


Edited to add: Really? No accented letters in subject lines? Boo hoo.

And no, accents don't work in subject lines, so it's important to double check if it's a thread about Chef José Andrés or Julián Castro.

Recall that Trump learned early on in NYC -- not just from Roy Cohn (who started out working for Joseph McCarthy! -- thanks Rachel's podcast)...but from David Pecker. Get the info you need, lock it down, and save it for a rainy day. Seems like the only one who has beaten Trump at this game was Putin!

Apart from all the snark, LG is a sad example of a privileged man who could have gone through a rough patch and then been happy...but instead he's helping to defund HIV treatment and research (so close to ending the epidemic), and setting the stage for the recriminalization of gay sex and relationships.

t-shirt for Lyndsey. Unfortunately, a few in our crowd deemed it to be ********** and threatened to give me a hide, so I deleted the post.

Whatever TFG has on him it must be pretty bad for the senator to do a 180. And we all know that he was right the first time.

That’s all I got.

So much so, he's one of the clowns in the clown car.

Hope you're feeling better?

Getting a little stronger by the day.

We're gonna need all the strength we have, and all the family we can gather, over this next season.
