The president is attempting to keep calm in front of the cameras, but behind the scenes he’s fuming.

Donald Trump is reportedly getting more and more fed up with his administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein drama that has consumed headlines for weeks.

Trump is frustrated that the scandal has overshadowed his agenda and dominated the news, two people familiar with his thinking told The Washington Post in a Sunday report.

Nearly a dozen sources close to the situation spoke to the Post about the issue, painting a picture of an administration adrift, lacking a clear strategy and blindsided by the intensity of the backlash—particularly from Trump’s own base. Many officials had reportedly hoped that Americans would move on from the unreleased Epstein files, underestimating the sustained outrage.

        Honestly the creepiest stories I’ve ever heard are those where someone has been living in someone’s house without them knowing.

          So every time you leave your house, do you no longer live there? Do you always live exactly where you are at that moment? Like if you are traveling and someone asks you where do you live, you say “right here.”

            Nah but if I’m away from home for a week or a month then I’m living somewhere else.

            I haven’t been homeless for a long time though. That sucks and I see the number off people living in cars and tents growing. :(
