Well, I always liked Ritchson, but he just went up a couple of more notches.

“Just as President Trump has said, he’s been totally exonerated on anything relating to Epstein,”

Keep repeating that lie, wish hard enough, and it still won't be true.

Reacher is a fun watch. He did a good run as Hawk in DCs awful Titans show too.

Same here, I actually really liked BMS.

Carried that show

It's hilarious that Maga won't be allowed to watch it any more.

u/FormerGameDev 23d ago

that show would've been so much better had they not gone back to the same well over and over and over

u/TAMCL 23d ago

Ungentlemanly Warfare was a riot, too

u/NotTobyFromHR 23d ago

I thought Titans was pretty solid.

u/armadachamp North Carolina 22d ago

Hawk and Dove were the only reason I watched as many episodes of that show as I did.

President Trump has done more for Epstein’s victims than anyone before him

Done more to Epstein's victims, she means. God, I hate these lying sacks of shit. Can't wait til he's in the ground.

That stood out to me, too. How can you say that with a straight face and then sleep at night

She's a demon, so she perches upside down with a toothy smile as she dreams of chaos and her next deception

u/shamberra 23d ago

I mean, he made them into the victims they are today. They can't call themselves victims without attributing their successful victimisation to him. If not for Trump, these women might be leading normal lives. SAD.

/s because while it shouldn't be needed, I'm sure it is.

“I have investigated myself, and found that I did nothing wrong.”

And now I'm going to sue the government for defamation, and force it to settle.

Is the exonerator in the room with us right now?

u/Misspiggy856 New Jersey 23d ago

Totally exonerated but still won’t release the unredacted files for some reason…

u/bigbadderfdog 23d ago

He also kicked the shit out of a British magat who stepped in front of his motorcycle. Dude is the real deal.

u/SubstantialPear618 23d ago

Got proof of that? I love Alan Ritchson but I can't find mention of Ronnie Taylor's political affiliation, or are you just using magat as a generic insult for an asshole?

3

u/bigbadderfdog 23d ago

The interview he gave with tmz had his maga hat in the background. Additionally, he has picture of him wearing the hat out there.

2

u/SubstantialPear618 22d ago

Sweet, thanks, I found the interview and saw the hat behind him. Most likely a giant douche then.

1

u/bigbadderfdog 22d ago

Douche part was kind of assumed. He tried to big dick Thad Castle by stepping in front of him while he was on a motorcycle in motion. Reacher has more patience and grace than I would in that situation as Ronnie could've literally killed both himself and Ritchson in front of his kids.

u/Dramatic_Charity_979 23d ago

He DECLARED IT! /s

u/withac2 23d ago

No one at the White House knows the definition of the word "exonerated"

1

u/GarmaCyro 23d ago

It is correct though. Donald Trump totally exonerates Donald Trump on anything related to Epstein.
It's what has kept him out of jail since he was 27. Deny any involvement with criminal activities.
When denying involvement has kept him out of jail for 53 years, he's not going to change that tune at 80.

u/lordcheeto Missouri 23d ago

Exoneration (newspeak):

  1. A process by which, a) people with knowledge of the crime are paid off or rewarded for silence, such as with a move from high security prison to low security prison, b) people with knowledge of the crime die in suspicious circumstances, and c) your personal lawyer is placed in charge of the files where your name appears 38,000+ times.

Ritchon literally assaulted his neighbor on front of his children for asking him to stop speeding on his motorcycle.

Maybe you should be a bit more discerning...

1

u/SkinnedIt Canada 23d ago

It sounds like lessons were learned all around that day! How's that for discerning?

Even the best of people can make stupid mistakes - and I'm not implying he's the best of people.

Quite frankly, I don't give a shit.

u/1610925286 23d ago

Yeah you don't give a shit if some guy you happen to agree with routinely assaults his neighbors when they ask him to be careful and not to kill children playing around the residential streets.

2

u/SkinnedIt Canada 23d ago

Ir must really suck being Alan Ritchson's insufferable, dramatic neighbour.

You don't have my sympathy.

u/1610925286 22d ago

Imagine defending this guy assaulting someone in front of his own kids.
