I’ve always seen people referencing just a single photo or video of Trump with Epstein & Co., so I felt it was necessary to create this compilation to show that Trump’s relationship with these people extended far beyond being mere acquaintances.
If you have any feedback, I’m all ears. My channel isn’t monetized so I just make whatever I feel like and it’s nice not having money in the equation. No monetization means I can do little weird things like creating this video in the style of Goodfellas, just to show people that at the end of the day, the only difference between Trump and a two-bit gangster is that he inherited billions of dollars. Apart from that, he still has and continues to conduct himself like a boorish fool.
Part of why I made this video was to share it with my friends and family who aren’t online as often as you, I, or the average Lemmy user. I wasn’t shocked to get feedback from folks all around the world who had no clue that Trump’s relationship with Epstein went this deep, and I think part of that is because most mainstream media really gloss over this demonstrable fact or when they do cover it, they just skim the surface and basically downplay it as much as possible.
I also created this video so people can link it in response to Trump supporters and simply say "here’s your guy Trump in multiple photos and videos clearly have a grand ol’ time with Epstein, Weinstein, and Ghislaine Maxwell" because it’s a nice, simple way of confronting them with the reality of who they’re so adamantly supporting.
Plus, who am I kidding? I’ve always thought Henry Hill’s narration in Goodfellas* was absurdly similar to the way in which Trump conducted himself and making the video was a nice exercise in video editing.
Goodfellas.
Right, not enough sleep
