Now we understand why Trump didn’t want [the Epstein files] released.

Just a week before the midterm elections, which are already shaping up to be a bloodbath for the GOP, Democrats have dropped a bombshell. “A growing body of evidence demonstrates that Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s,” states a just-released report from the Democrats of the House Judiciary Committee.

Additionally, they claim that Trump has leveraged his FBI and DOJ to cover up the evidence, and have now called for the appointment of a special counsel to investigate any potential wrongdoing.

    This won’t change a thing. Republicans know Trump rapes kids, they’ve decided that it’s not a deal breaker.

      It absolutely will change things

      Just not until after Trump, and everyone politically reliant on him, is dead or out of power

      Until then the divisive propaganda will continue, and roughly 1/3rd of the population will believe it. Not necessarily because it’s actually believable, but because believing Trump did nothing wrong is convenient for them personally

        Why would you share that as if it’s a serious comment?

        When I say “Republicans” I’m not just talking about politicians. Republican voters have all chosen to support pedophilia, rape, and blatant corrupion.

        It’s actually not even clear what other policies Republican voters support. It’s not small government, fiscal responsibility, family values, or law and order. As far as I can tell, they’re only the party of pedophiles.

      It’s a mix of that and their astounding ability to just ignore things or make themselves believe (and/or be convinced by others) It’s “fake news”.
      It wouldn’t even matter if videos were released of Trump being in the act of pedophilia, once people like them have made up their minds about something there is nothing that can change that.
