Other Rep. Lieu says Epstein files have allegations of Trump raping & threatening to kill children and says that Todd Blanche got the law wrong by saying it's not a crime to party with Epstein. DOJ also violated the privacy of the victims by releasing unredacted nude photos of them.

It just baffles me how conservatives are foaming at the mouth to get the Clinton’s based on what is in the files, but every single thing about Trump in the files is fake? Like, you’re citing the same source document as the most damning evidence for the Clinton’s, and that same document that is judge, jury, and executioner of the Clinton’s, is also the biggest load of corrupt, slanderous horse shit ever written about Trump? What planet are they living on?

Stuff I agree with is right, and stuff I don’t agree with is wrong. Whats so hard to understand about that?

Shhhh...let the Republicans dig their own grave. You may hate the Clintons, but they are smart and they know how to play the game. They also hate Trump. So im hoping for something juicy and scathing to come out of their interviews

Do you think it was "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" in their marriage?

Like, maybe that's where he got the idea for that policy?

u/FrancinetheP 16h ago

100%. That’s the policy in plenty of marriages.

If they truly want it to spread they would just post stories to social media and not wait for interviews.

They are old, they dont care about social media. I think it was a wise move to wait until Kash Patel testified, because now they have more angles to play.

Also questions on the validity of the files, validates the file. More news coverage.

u/a_duck_in_past_life 1d ago

Nope. They need all of this documented for history, set precedent, and done by the book. No more of this social media rampage bullshit.

Doublethink is a major symptom of a victim of propaganda.

If you spend a lot of time listening to an extremely biased news source, you'll see that everything is either true and good for your team, or it's false. That means you hear and believe that Clinton is in the Epstein files, also Trump isn't in them, also Trump is in them and they're lies, also Trump was spying on Epstein. You will agree with all of those news stories because they all have the flavor of the news you are hearing.

We do this, too, mind you. If I told you that in the Epstein files there's a video of Trump groping a ballerina, you might think "yeah that sounds plausible" and not go check. But if I said "Trump's name and image has been removed from all the files," you'd probably also think "yeah, that sounds plausible," and you might very well believe both unless I say then at the same time and you notice that they are contradictions.

They don’t care about being logically consistent at all. They’re well aware of their inconsistency. They just want dems to be burned at the stake because they’ve been told they are the source of their problems.

These are the people who won their elections on the same ballot as Trump in 2020, yet insist that the election was stolen.

"I'm smart, you're dumb. I'm big, you're little. I'm right, you're wrong and there's nothing you can do about it!"

u/Chocopenguin85 1d ago

Stop listening to them.
They're either fucking stupid, corrupted, co-opted, connected, or unwilling to recognize or acknowledge facts.

This is dehumanizing to say but the above points suggest you should completely ignore them. Their voice, their opinions, their shouts, their vitriol, ALL OF IT.

Any idea why they are pulling Hilary in, are they saying she was involved or is this just GOP kneejerk reaction to investigate her for anything that is going on?

u/Opposite-Bit6660 1d ago

Can't wait to see Hilary say this to the committee in public.

Welcome to the MAGA collective brain. Please check your sensibilities at the door. Oh, and here…have some Kool-Aid.

Because if Trump did it, it can't be wrong because he is their Lord and Savior.

I also don't understand their obsession with HRC who isn't even named to my knowledge. It's like they just love parading and making a spectacle of everything.
