Wouldn't such a secret tunnel have to begin at a secret location? If Rudi walks in the front door at Mar-a-Lago then uses a secret tunnel to visit Trump, does it really matter if there was a tunnel or not? You think they announced that he was there for the lunch special to trick us into thinking he wasn't going to talk to Trump, then used the secret tunnel?

I wonder if the FBI knew about the secret tunnel before the raid? It would suck if they missed it just because they hadn't read the book.
More pedantics/semantics and pointless qualifiers? Really?

Sidetrack the thread into some stupid shit about the tunnel that nobody really gives a fuck about.

Secret tunnel just sounds too strange. Going to be it’s a narrow underground “hallway” you can sort of stoop down and walk thru. Probably carries the HVAC and power lines to the various buildings.
Sort of like my High School had.

Or maybe MAL was used for smuggling at some point. Miami Vice ala Trump.

That's just boring. A secret tunnel sounds ever so much more sinister. How many more books will the author sell if there is a secret tunnel involved? Then suggesting Trumps attorney actually walked through it. Clearly there is nefarious activity involved, if Rudy just wanted to talk about business he would have used the public tunnel.
There is probably sign in sheet at the door directing people which hall to use, the one marked "Happy fun place" and the one with the "Nefarious Activity's" sign.

I'm going to have to go see what the Q guys are saying about this.

I'm confused, do secret passages matter or not? Because this thread is (partially) arguing No but the movies tell me Yes, and I'm generally inclined to believe what the movies tell me because movies are always right.

^ ^ If/when you try to be facetious...it doesn't really work as you might intend, as the sarcastic fiction is too close to your own beliefs/reality. :rolleyes:

Your logic is unassailable.
The question is, if everyone knows about the secret passage, does it just become a hall because it's no longer a secret?
I eagerly await your opinion on this matter.

A secret tunnel to Rudy's natural lair/habitat? A place under ground for him to sleep during the day? Yall think that "event" at The Four Seasons where his paint began dripping from his face was hair color? Yea, thats Rudy's day-walking paint. He'd burst into flames without it.

Judge accepted DOJ’s proposed redactions to the affidavit. So will get filed tomorrow and released shortly after.

Apparently, you don't know about the tunnels at the Denver Airport. Massive Masonic conspiracies. Q don't know shit. /s

What the f you know about it? Nothing. Neither do I. So why are we even talking? Should we shut up?

Strange, I would have thought that secret bat cave tunnel led directly to MickyD's. I'm sure there's a path that goes there, and probably tunnels clear to Putin's sex dungeon as well.

I'm guessing the path leading to Guliani's was supposed to be blasted closed after he failed to keep Trump in office.

I find the subject amusing, as do others by the look of it.
It amuses you, so you fling bullshit through sarcasm for several pages? What others here find amusing is the amount of FUD you sling constantly, not your topic of thread derailment.

Notice the crickets coming out of Republican leadership. You have a few of his cultist Reps. saying some really stupid things that shows they know nothing about handling classified data, but the (hate to use this word) responsible ones know this is really bad.
Edit: Also, the defund the FBI noise has faded very quickly. Of course Fox helped out by shifting their ire towards the 87,000 death squad IRS agents that are going to be unleased.

The real issue the true Republicans are focused on is Student Loan Forgiveness. When your political team is falling apart, grasp wildly at anything to remind people of how bad the other team is.

Yeah I’m stuck in a FB battle with some random deplorable a friend knows. Some dumb post saying “why not forgive peoples cancer treatment bills, one is a choice the other is not”
I said “Why not both.”
He said “one is a choice”
I just said “I know it’s sad when people choose to smoke, why not both?”
Morons like that are such easy target because I know the guy would also bitch at capping medical debt. Dude just wants to complain.
Frustrating because he’s not self-aware enough to realize it.

Years of right wing propaganda where they’ve been brainwashed to put profits over people and to vote against their own self interests will destroy one’s self awareness.

Then again, it is a trait of primates to forgo benefits if it means others won’t benefit from them either.
