Photo shows Trump dining on Monday with billionaire charged with prostitution -- and it's not Jeffrey

Photo shows Trump dining on Monday with billionaire charged with prostitution — and it’s not Jeffrey Epstein!
Published 1 min ago on July 8, 2019
By Bob Brigham



President Donald Trump dined on Monday with a controversial billionaire recently charged with prostitution, but it wasn’t his longtime friend Jeffrey Epstein.

At Steve Mnuchin’s dinner for the Emir of Qatar, Trump sat at the same table as New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft.

In February, Kraft was charged for prostitution in Florida.

ascendance to power that is exposing them.

Being seen with Trump is more damaging to Kraft than it is to Trump.

Keep looking and bringing these to the campaign. These need to be shown again and again. Close in on that smirky face chuckling and saying, “It’s true.” One of the few times in his life he was being truthful.

Outed by his own big mouth. Hard to refute that, tRump. Gonna say it’s fake news??

Lest you be seen as directing derogatory statements towards Democrats...

I've been alerted on and had posts hidden for less.

are supportive of Dems fighting harder. The phrase, "You don't bring a butter knife to a gun fight" seems to be mentioned a lot within the past 6 months. Maybe is was after the Barr Report that many people decided they have had it and are tired of this BS!

You have to be careful. Because if leadership has decided that butter knives are perfectly fine weapons, and you say otherwise, you are "attacking" the party.

Why does he go to a dinner to honor him? Why does the Emir even want him there?
Makes no sense to me.

Steve Mnuchin threw the dinner, so I would guess Mnuchin is sitting on a dais with the Emir(?)
I can't ID those other folks at Chump's table.

Normally, when the President of the most powerful nation in the world is at a dinner for a visiting national leader, they sit at the same table.

But now it's a dinner to honor their Emir?

This sounds like what happened with North Korea.

He would have made a scene until they either moved him to the #1 table behind him, or swapped the #1 and #2 placards.
