Oh look, the blackmail is starting already. Good job everyone who voted for a completely compromised candidate.
This isn't blackmail, this is just expressing clear dominance.
The blackmail happens behind closed doors, and blackmail is such an ugly word: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xG6vgzAswgE
It seems pretty clear to me. "Hey look, we put your wife's nude pictures across the country. It would be a shame if we did this with some other photos we have..."
It's cute that you think there exists a photograph of Trump so obscene as to change anyone's mind about the man
It's not about whether it will change minds. It's about whether he thinks it will change minds.
He could shoot someone and still be president.
But would a picture of someone else shooting their load all over him do the same?
I mean, they weren't exactly private nudes to begin with, so I'm not really sure what sort of leverage this is supposed to represent. "Look at what we found on Google Images!" isn't much of a threat.
This seems more like mocking than threatening.
Would it even matter if Putin released the pee tapes, with the MAGA mob? They might even cheer it on. Note that the Evangelicals were quick to embrace the other photos as "artistic".
I would think it would matter to Trump, whose main concern is what is airing on television and his image.
GQ is not a private publication. You can see any of those photoshoots any time you want. They're making fun of her.
The piss video? Seen it.
Yup. This is a message.
This isn't blackmail, those nudes have been out there the day they were initially published in a magazine.
I said above, it's still blackmail. The message is "remember what we have that people haven't seen yet."
This is just a reminder, lest Trump forgets, who the real boss is.
100% that's what this is. "Remember what we have that we aren't showing."
So many moronic posts in this thread.
Family Values!
Our once and future First Lady, everyone!
Headline Nudes
Putin: and they let you do it too, because you're an authotarianistic dictator!
Better Melania's nudes than tRump's pee-pee tape.
Trump has a .... Nope, nevermind, I don't care. I don't want to see that, and I'm not even going to ask.
Stay classy, Russia
I'M GONNA NEED THE SOURCE FOR THAT NOW!!! TO CORROBORATE THE FACTS OF COURSE!!!
