The GOP has proudly stood behind wealthy pedophiles for decades ... It's kind of their thing
While pointing their fingers at everyone else. DO NOT let them forget this. Ever.
WWMGT do? That's what Dems should be doing right now. Except in this case, an insane reaction is the only sane response. Honestly fucking disgusting and somebody needs to be circulating an image with the name listed of every members that voted to not release those files.
Edit: Gotta say Newsweek has been one of the most upfront and honest news outlets over the last few months when it comes to just reporting the information and headlines everyone else seems afraid to just come out and say.
Full list of Republicans who blocked Epstein files vote
But they spend so much time saying that's not true. I love this for them. They had a chance to prove it's "not true" and epically failed because it is so very very true. Now the masses are moving the goal post saying it never mattered anyways... Le sigh... Le boo...
I will say that it's honestly not the masses, at least not yet. Even with as much insane shit as your average MAGAt has been able to handwave away, "pedos bad" is one of the few remaining bipartisan issues and was literally a huge part of what Trump ran on, saying they'd release the files and how it'd expose all the Dems/deep state/etc. Now you're seeing many of the "Would support Trump if he murdered a man on 5th Ave" types getting legitimately upset by the insane backpedaling on this. Will it last? Only time will tell, but this feels legitimately different, even when speaking to your average dipshit Trump supporter.
Pedo Protection Party
Not just the GOP. Yes, the GOP is a shining example, but it's more widespread than that.
Conservatism involves having a power fantasy. You know what else is a power fantasy? Pedophilia. When you're rich and can already dominate people financially and that's not enough, what else but to dominate them physically?
