Um, who’s Bubba? Epstein’s brother just spilled more chaotic Tr*mp–Clinton email gossip

Last week’s Epstein email leaks were, in a word, crazy. We learned that Epstein believed he had never met a man more evil than That Man in the White House, and considering Epstein was no slouch in that department himself, he probably knew what he was talking about.

Epstein’s correspondence showed us that he was looking to take Tr*mp down after their eventual fallout, and he was seeking any and all incriminating evidence concerning the Orange Man—including alleged spicy photos of Trump blowing former president Bill Clinton’s, ahem, saxophone.

Those rumors immediately seemed too good—and way too saucy—to be true, but TikTok had a field day with the Bubba incident anyway.

How about we take this to the next level?

Usually rumors that begin on TikTok stay on TikTok, but not this one. Eventually, Epstein’s brother Mark had to step into the chat and clarify that the “Trump Bubba photos” were not what everyone was thinking.

According to Mark, references to the photos: “were simply part of a humorous private exchange between two brothers and were never meant for public release or to be interpreted as serious remarks.”

We assumed as much. But that hasn’t stopped TikTokers from hilariously running with the intel.

Even the good authors at Ao3 are on it!

We know that “Bubba,” despite being Bill Clinton’s nickname while in office, is not, in fact, Clinton—even though the Epstein brothers refer to Clinton as Bubba throughout their correspondence. So who, or what, is this Bubba character? On social media, theories run the gamut from an unknown friend to former AIPAC President Mayer Bubba Mitchell to…Ghislaine Maxwell’s horse?

The news caught on like wildfire on TikTok—even twinkfluencer Harry Sisson showed up to comment on the “Bubba” scandal.

“I can’t believe this is American politics right now,” Sisson told viewers. Well, believe it! BubbaGate is real, and people are obsessed with it.

As you can imagine, the comments are hitting especially hard right now. “The Gulp of America,” one poster wrote. “What a bad time to have eyes and ears,” someone else said. That’s putting it mildly.

The collective, albeit totally unrealistic, hope that Bubba is in fact Clinton does persist, of course, if only because it would be the funniest thing in the entire world.

As the Epstein emails continue to roll out, we’re following this saga with baited breath. According to TikToker Under the Desk News, who is in direct touch with Robert Garcia and the oversight committee responsible for releasing the emails, “what’s coming next could be pictures.”

Oh joy!

Even if the Bubba comment is a joke, Trump has long come under suspicion for his flirty “all man” comments about Arnold Palmer… not to mention the time he threatened to kiss a man in public.

Basically, whatever the truth of the Bubba scandal actually it, the whole thing undoubtedly bad news for Tr*mp.
