Donald Trump said he 'doesn't care' about the release of Epstein files, two days after House lawmakers released thousands of documents from the late Jeffrey Epstein's estate, in which the president was named several times.
Oh, so it’s okay the files are released in their entirety? Maybe this statement counts as an order to release the files.
I don’t know that it would be, but he sure seems to think so. I think him trying so desperately to cover it up for so long has made it more damaging than it would have been if he’d just owned it when his cult was clamoring for the files to be released. He’d downplay it with his usual word salad, news articles would be written about how terrible it was, and nothing of consequence would happen to him. Now, though? It’s not just about the horrendous crimes, but his betrayal of his conspiracy theorist cult. Maybe it would still amount to nothing, but he hasn’t done himself any favors by alienating his cultists.
I’m still waiting for someone to explain to me how Trump will face repercussions for these crimes when he hasn’t for any other crimes. Who is going to prosecute him? What is the plan if the files prove he committed heinous crimes? Since he’s clearly immune to all consequences of crimes, I think he’s more concerned about people thinking he’s gay
IF anything happens to him, it will be because he has eroded the trust of his conspiracy theorist cult by trying to cover up his pedophilia more than the pedophilia itself. A lot of his power is derived from his cult, which the Republicans are terrified of alienating. If he loses enough of their support, Republicans won’t be so hell-bent on protecting him at all costs. It’s a big “if.”
I don’t see hiw him losing supporters is going to matter. It isn’t like there’s an election coming up. He said, if you vote for him you’ll never have to vote again. He doesn’t need the support of the people now that he’s already in power
He doesn’t need the support of the people now that he’s already in power
Ah, but he does, because Republicans who do need their support to stay in power look to them when deciding to bend over to Dear Leader. None of them actually like him. He’s only immune from consequences because Republicans allow it. If enough of his cult turned on him, they would as well. Not saying it’s going to happen, only that it’s a possibility.

Why should he care if they prove he committed heinous crimes? Nothing is going to be done about it
Sucking a guy’s dick isn’t a crime, but sex with a minor sure is.
Which is what they just said?
He has already been convicted of multiple other felonies and doesn’t serve time. Why should this be any different?

Yes but nothing is going to be done about it
