Maga republicans want the epstein files released because they think they will show trump as innocent and a bunch of dem and hollywood elites as guilty. Theyre gonna be in for a rude awakening when 1) trump is found guilty , 2) there will be way less dems and hollywood elites guilty, and 3) we wouldnt care to defend those dems and hollwood elites and actually would like to see them rot in jail with trump.
I don’t mean to appear nitpicking or negative, but Re those 10 percent of Democrats who don’t believe the files should be released, I’m presuming they want the slow burn of trump’s hypocrisy to keep hurting him. Or, they are the tiny remnants of the old segregation wing who never got the memo that the Dems are a liberal party now because news reaches the fly infested backwaters of Mississippi slowly.
Why is this an opinion poll? It is LAW that they be released. Congress passed that law. Donald Chump signed that law. Pam Bondi is guilty of contempt of Congress every single hour she does not release all the files as ordered and required. In any functional government, she would be in prison, and we would go through new Attorneys General until we get one who will comply.
"Sorry, despite how perfectly amazing and unbelievably skilled and intelligent our agencies are under our bigly President, we can only focus on one (1) thing at a time. And right now it's about fucking up Iran and the rest of the world by proxy. Thank you for your attention to this matter."
My Maga coworkers have already decided they've been altered while Dems had control so it will be nothing but more fake news. These same people could easily justify the murders of Goode and Pretti. There is no red line for these people.
the fbi and cia knew about pedophiles for 80 years for sure all the christians organizations YMCA, YWCA, Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, Brownies, CYO, all christian churches (not just catholics) with millions of children being raped MONTHLY worldwide for decades. nothing in US history has warranted a Special Prosecutor like Jack Smith more than this, DC Madam, GOP Speaker Hastert, Sandusky, Nassar, Ohio State (Jordan) and connected to Epstein.
80 years include 2026! in 2024 at an iowa rally trumpspeak said he would not prosecute christian pedophiles and no media reported it, why? with todays esptein releases u'd think the corporate media would go back and air it! the context was iowa AG + DAs found overwhelming christian pedophile evidence and moving forward with prosecutions. trump said it was terrible and the christian crowd cheered! https://www.youtube.com/live/mwHTBN27sKE?si=ghOM-xCVXoEBRApe&t=8078
That's why the republicans who were wrong but genuinely believed they were representing their constituents in the best way have left and denounced the party. I remember when there were republican representatives who had policy ideas that I disagreed with but weren't "kill every brown or lgbt person as soon as possible, and prioritize this use every dollar we have"
There is no maybe about it cuz iit really is and even still an average of 82.5% of the "Just Fucking Shit" party wants the Epstein files and all those dirty dark secrets out in the open.
MAGA has driven the "old guard" out of the GOP. The Republican Party *is* MAGA, and anyone holding on to the idea they can cycle it back to when it was "just" Reagan bad is fooling themselves. All members of the old, greedy-but-still-sane GOP have been driven out or lured into MAGAland. If there was ANY chance of fixing it, even after the first term (tiny chance, if it still existed at all), it vanished when SCOTUS ruled on Trump v. United States.
wait until MAGA burns down the Republican Party entirely, and then they can try to re-establish themselves. But I would personally prefer if they joined the "establishment Dems" and made the Democratic Party the one on the right, while the liberals and progressives form a new left party. I know, I know, that's a thin thread to cling to, but it is what it would take to even try and start getting better.... you know, assuming the U.S. even survives Trump.

Yup. Use your former enemies for the -now- to deal with the issue that is a threat to ALL. (NOT Just Americans but EVERYONE WORLD WIDE) - Deal with them later, those arguments and discussions can come after those that need to be are fed into the woodchipper and are mulch. Right now, stop trying to find enemies on your fucking side of the fight your in. Stop being the typical left-ish winger dem, and throw away that playbook. Deal with the battle your in and stop aiming at your own trenches.
Correct. But if there is common ground to make them lose support of their worst of the worst fascists, I will take it. Anything to end this. That doesn't mean I vote with them or support them on anything at all, I just want to encourage them to not support that shit so we can take one step in the right direction. It's not so much common ground, but to let them stop worshipping things that no one actually wants, because this is out of fucking control. I want them to vote 3rd party.
Start with the common ground, destroy their base, and get to reset things in a better way. How is this hard for people to understand? Politics isn’t just screaming from the rooftops to get everything and anything you want. It’s a compromise, which leaves everyone unhappy a lot of the time.
once again, what common ground is that? there isnt any between "genocide trans people" and "trans people deserve the same rights as everyone else"
its not that its hard to understand, its that you arent answering the question. there are some things there simply isnt a compromise to be had upon. you are instead deflecting and then trying to accuse me of being dumb.
Yes. The problem is, on a lot of issues, i have no common ground with those who thing LGBTQ+ ppl dont deserve rights or to exist. Also, cant find common ground on things like climate with those who are climate change deniers, anti vax, and anti science in general.
That's the answer right here. They can be as backwards and shitty as they make themselves be. It doesn't matter. We'll pull them kicking and screaming with us into a better future.

Sadly, I haven't seen anything that gives me hope that anything will be done, whatever is released.

The thing is that if anything is done, it's going to need to be done after this, once the pardoning pen is out of this motherfucker's hand.

Epstein's victims who don't want their personal information shared.

Congress, their financial backers, the top 10% of Americans who are the ones that stand to lose just a little bit of their obscene wealth.

i wonder if this might be an indicator of why hes confused as to why hes still losing support/approval rating. maybe he actually thinks the

average american approves of war on iran? and said this because its what he would do to reverse "bad" numbers?

This is the way it ought to be. Find common ground then debate the particulars.

and what is the common ground between "trans people should be erased" and "trans people deserve the right to be themselves"
ReaperCDN
"trans people deserve the right to erase people who want to oppress them"
Nuuttiparoni
Um, the common ground is "release the epstein files" as op stated.
Skywatcher16
that is a separate matter. so no, not common ground between "genocide the trans" and "let the trans live in peace"
Imjurbro
A full release of the Epstein files would destroy Trump and MAGA and he knows it. Do the math on how the OP makes total sense.
Skywatcher16
i agree that the full release would destroy maga. thats not relevent to what the common ground between "genocide trans" and "trans rights" is.

Start with the common ground, destroy their base, and get to reset things in a better way. How is this hard for people to understand? Politics isn’t just screaming from the rooftops to get everything and anything you want. It’s a compromise, which leaves everyone unhappy a lot of the time.
