STOP IT! TRUMP DID *NOT* SPEND HIS 2017 THANKSGIVING WITH EPSTEIN!!
Rumors are flying that Trump spent Thanksgiving of 2017 with Epstein, and they are simply not true. There is ample evidence of this, as even the most cursory of searches for “Trump 2017 Thanksgiving” would have revealed if only you Epstein rumor-mongers would have first, you know, fact-checked instead of shooting first and never asking the question.
2017 was Trump’s *first* Thanksgiving in office. Of *course* it was widely covered by the media. And here’s how he spent it: He went and handed out sandwiches to members of the Coast Guard at Riviera Beach, in Florida, and then HE HOSTED THANKSGIVING AT MAR-A-LAGO.
Go ahead and do your own search and check, I’ll wait.
This is one of the biggest problems when people cherry pick things from the massive number of Epstein emails that were recently released, and run with their unfounded, not to mention unproven, theories, without actually *thinking*, because they so want it to be true; and it’s DANGEROUS!
This particular fake news is because of an email exchange on November 23rd, 2017, when Faith Kates asked Epstein where he was spending Thanksgiving. Epstein replied “eva”, and Kates asked him who else was there. Epstein responded “David fizel. hanson. trump”.
And from that single email, the Internet exploded with “Trump had Thanksgiving 2017 with Epstein”. Mind you, *every single person* who has posted it *never bothered to fact-check it first* – as I said, even the most cursory of searches would have debunked it.
There are any number of reasons that Epstein might have said “trump”, ranging from wishful thinking, to one of the other Trumps being there (although I’d bet that all of the Trumps closest to the president were all there at Mar-a-Lago enjoying their first presidential Thanksgiving).
But one thing is certain: Donald Trump was *did not*, and never was going to, spend his first Thanksgiving as president with Jeffrey Epstein or, indeed, with anyone else other than his guests at the widely covered Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago.
When we, who are on the side of right, shoot off our digital mouths without first bothering to take the 60 seconds it takes to confirm whether something this important is true, we are shooting our entire country in the foot. Because *these* are the things that allow Trump to say it’s all a hoax. That it’s untrue. Because it IS untrue.
There are plenty of things that are actually *true* about Trump that are horrible. We don’t need to make things up, doing that just undermines our case.
So stop it. Just stop it.
And have a nice Thanksgiving.
