Trump wanted to drain the swamp but has no power: he needs to kowtow to the Conservative Lions to get things done. Fortunately he will not have true power until late C.E. 2028, so we are safe from the Trumpanzee agenda until then.
Why would Trump need a bribe when being a perpetrator himself is enough? Also Epstein would have not preserved any evidence anymore than the late O.J Simpson did: Epstein was tacky, but not an idiot.
I heard many non-cisgender people support chemical transitions rather than chemical ones for pain, cost, & makes more sense to turn genitalia to opposite-sex rather than remove them. I used to be transphobic partially for the idea of removing an intimate area.
I don't know what TIC is, but the Progressive Era (C.E. 1890 to C.E. 1930) can be considered an extension of the Gilded Age, since the Progressive Era was a backlash against it... and the reformers mostly failed.
Stupublicans (& Dixiecrats which became both them & Blue Dogs) started being a cult with American flag hats in 1970, which Trump replaced in 2015. In other words, both Never-Trumpers and Stupublicans who kowtowed to Trump are cultists, but of Founding Fathers (& Nixon, but now Raygun).
This is based on morals and successes: when based on pure success Nixon is high. Also, with one-term presidents it is unfair as they did not have enough time, and it is also unfair with presidents with gridlock. Therefore most presidents are average and the last success was McCarthyite Raygun.
I should say the White House always looked tacky: it looks far too small and it looks like a bungalow with no windows even though the White House has windows. Also, the whitewash is awful: I prefer stone.
It was a renovation of the White House, which was built by slaves. The East Wing was built on the labour of exploited immigrants and segregated black people during the Gilded Age.
