    As Lucey started to ask why Trump was behaving the way he was “if there’s nothing incriminating in the [Epstein] files”, Trump pointed at her and said: “Quiet. Quiet, piggy.”

    Hm, why did he respond this way if there’s nothing in the files?

      I don’t know, but I hope she quotes him.

      “When questioned about his inconsistent behavior regarding Epstein, Trump responded, ‘Quiet piggy,’ his neck skin flapping back and forth like a half-mast flag of surrender.”

        “While trying to deflect from his obvious guilt, Trump tried and failed to hold back from filling his diaper. He scowled and his mangina seemed to get even more orange. He tried to muster a real comeback, but arrived at the flaccid third-grade insult: ‘piggy’. Everyone in the room tried not to breathe in the awful stench coming from the so-called President.”

    Trump makes disparaging comment about a woman’s appearance, nothing new or surprising there. Guy looks like a scrotum dipped in a bucket of Cheetos and wallpaper paste. He can’t say shit.

    Remember when Obama wearing a tan suit supposedly made him unfit to be president?

        I wanted them to file articles of impeachment when I saw Obama not only Presidenting while black, but with his feet up on a desk! ZOMG!

    So Trump bluntly proves he has no respect for women to their face…but wants us to believe he didn’t mistreat the women/girls in the Epstein files?

    Probably from other people he will also just call piggy also, or call them “the worst”, and other insults of anyone that doesn’t praise him constantly.

    But, just for that. We’re all fine with everything else he says. It’s the schoolyard insult that really gets us riled up.
