NY Post: Schumer got thousands in donations from Jeffrey Epstein

I don’t know why you’re even talking about here, but this is what I replied to:



Which quoted the OP, who clearly did reference Trump and Epstein in his comments, even though linked article had nothing to do with Trump.

Carry on.

The OP isn't concerned at all about the President being friends with a known pedophile. He conveniently wants to ignore that so he can start a really ignorant thread about a politician taking donations from one of his constituents who nobody knew was a pedophile. Sorry you don't understand that.

Except he didn’t ignore it. He just didn’t make it the central point in a thread about Schumer accepting small campaign donations from Epstein more than 25 years ago.
 
Trump was friends with Epstein. How convenient you forgot.

Briefly.

Bill Clinton attended many "parties". On 2 occasions, he left his SS detail at home. Why did he do that, I wonder....

I don't wonder. I don't care what he did. If he committed a crime, Barr will find out because one of the victims will come forward. To this date I never heard a single woman accuse Bill Clinton of improper acts with her on Epstein's island when she was underage. Have you?

How "briefly" were they friends? According to Trump, he was friends with the "terrific guy" who was "a lot of fun to be with", and who "It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do (Trump), and many of them are on the younger side". But you seem to know something different, so please share.
 
Well at least Amy Schumer writes her own jokes! Anyone remember, Chuck Schumer — who called on Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta to resign and said President Trump should “answer” for his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Schumer got thousands in donations from Jeffrey Epstein
Federal Election Commission records show that Schumer received seven $1,000 donations from Epstein between 1992 and 1997, first as a US congressman from New York and then when he was vying to be the state’s senator in 1998, an election he won.

Schumer is complete and utter scum.
 
The donations were when Schumer was a member of the House of Representatives from NYC. Epstein lived in NYC. He was supporting his congressman.

According to the linked NY Post article, "Schumer received seven $1,000 donations from Epstein between 1992 and 1997, first as a US congressman from New York and then when he was vying to be the state’s senator in 1998..."

So? His campaign got $7,000 over six years. Do you really think Schumer even was aware of the donations or the source? Campaigns get millions in donations and thousands of checks. I've worked on such campaigns and checks come in and the name, amount and occupation are entered into a computer. I doubt the candidate ever sees more than a summary.

This is a prime example of trying to start a fire with wet matches.
 
Why is your buddy Schumer going around holier than thou telling folks to explain themselves when he's in the same boat?
Why? Because they aren't in the same boat. As JasperL wrote in post #3, "the last one [donation was] years before Epstein was convicted of being a sexual predator of underage girls." {Emphases added} So, what wrongdoing are you suggesting Schumer is guilty of committing, failing to know something yet to be uncovered?
 
Trump was friends with Epstein. How convenient you forgot.

I just don't get it. Schumer is a POS for associating with Epstein, but Trump isn't. Obama is a POS for detaining and separating migrant families, but Trump isn't. We could go on and on, but the hypocrisy and lack of consistency are pathetic.

There is this:

"New York Sen.*Chuck Schumer*will offset more than $7,000 in campaign contributions from accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein by donating the money to anti-sex trafficking and anti-violence against women groups."

Redirect Notice
 
Obama: Knows shady real estate people in Chicago.

GOP: Impeeeaaaach.

Trump: Has tons of friends with pedophile tendencies.

GOP: You guys, he should be president. Jesus and/or Milton Freedman would approve.


Everyone understand how this works?

Except there is no evidence that Schumer associated with Epstein at all. Trump did. His loyal and drooling fan base likes to forget that.
 
I don't understand what you're trying to say. If you have some sort of allegation of wrongdoing, then just come out with it already. There's nothing illegal or illicit about legal donations made to political campaigns. PERIOD

I think you're only trying to 'stir the pot' and create something from absolutely nothing.

For associating with a child molester/rapist. It's the lefty way.

Trump was the one who associated with a child molester. Unless you have some evidence that Schumer was associating with him in 1997? Like some interviews where Schumer said he was a terrific guy who he's known for 15 years, and who likes his girls young? How about some video of Schumer and Epstein shaking their booties on the dance floor of Schumer's mansion, looking at all of the nubile young women dancing with them? I'll await your links to back up your claim that Schumer associated with Epstein.

I'm just talking about the lefty way. Schumer and many other Democrats were cozy with Epstein. Therefore, they should do the honorable thing and resign.

Getting thousands of dollars from people doesn't make you cozy with them.

You have to have done it to understand. That's not a "large" sum of money.

Hanging out at parties with them? That's a different story.

Apparently you didn't understand the first time. So I'll ask again.

Post some evidence that Schumer associated with Epstein. Post some evidence that Schumer was "cozy" with Epstein. Or else admit you are lying.

Trump, yes, we have evidence that he associated with Epstein and that he was cozy with him. We even have it on film. And his admission that he knew that Epstein liked his girls young. You want Trump to resign.
