"This is a guy who acts guilty, sounds guilty, looks guilty, smells guilty."

Wilson explained that Trump has a “keen sense” that the Epstein matter is “so devastating,” citing Sen. Dick Durbin’s (D-Ill.) claim that roughly 1,000 FBI agents were asked to flag Epstein-related records that mentioned the president.

“This is a guy who acts guilty, sounds guilty, looks guilty, smells guilty,” Wilson told MSNBC’s Katy Tur.

He later continued, “Epstein has become the thing that’s consuming his brain, it is wearing him down, he looks and sounds — as you point out correctly — much different about this. It’s not swagger, it’s not good different, it is scared.”

“There’s a missing point here, there’s a missing gear in this machine with Donald Trump’s relationship with Epstein. It has thrown his administration completely off course and it’s thrown him completely off his game.”

“This is a guy who acts guilty, sounds guilty, looks guilty, smells guilty,” Wilson told MSNBC’s Katy Tur.

And then did Katy Turd ask, "Is Joe Biden to blame? Might this be good for Trump, actually?"

Hard to support pedophelia, but plenty of people seem to think it’s just fine…the only conclusion you can come to when everybody — D, R and other— knows what the truth is.

It might have even been posted on DU a day or two ago. But she was asked when she called in if it would bother her if Trump turned out to be a pedophile, and her response was basically what I wrote in my subject line.

And, I think this was last year during the election, various Republicans said that it didn't bother them that Trump wants to have sex with Ivanka because "all dads feel that way." I'm not kidding. I'm too lazy to look either of these up for links, but it was there, in black and white.

I think Trump's major objection to all of this is that he'd rather have the news media talking about how he's the greatest president since Lincoln, and better than Lincoln, many people are saying.

He knows what he did. He's been OK with it for decades. He's just going through the "How DARE YOU" phase because even before John Roberts anointed him as the Christ child, he's always believed that laws are for others, and if people don't give him money, don't give him sex, or don't praise him, they're not worth his time.
