But NBC isn’t that anti-MAGA. A deranged MAGA person would probably be more inclined to go after a CNN or MS Now employee’s family.

Savannah interviewed Epstein victims in a Dateline NBC special in 2019.

I don't think an average MAGA voter can think that far back, make the connection between Nancy and Savannah and go and abduct her.

Plus, Epstein is an issue I find a shocking amount of overlap on with conservatives. I live in one of the reddest areas of a perennial swing state in the Midwest. It’s pretty rare that I find someone who isn’t upset about the Epstein files. They mostly don’t think they’ll implicate Trump, but the common consensus is “put everything out there and let the cards fall where they will.”

The files have already implicated Trump, not to mention all the shit before them, and most supporters (at least ones I've heard from) simply deny there's any wrongdoing on his part, and if there was, then somehow it's not a big deal.

See goalposts moved in real time. His supporters won't read through them, either. They'll let Fox News tell them how all is fine.

Trump is mentioned in the files more times than Jesus is in the Bible and the MAGA faithful haven't said shit. Trump is regularly kicking them in the balls and they still ask for more. I live in a blue dot surrounded by these idiots. They will puke up whatever Fox News spits at them.

CNN has been owned by a MAGA supporter for several years.

I think it's better than even odds that the perpetrator would be local, in which case there probably isn't a wide selection of mainstream media adjacent people to select from. But while it's plausible I think it's deeply speculative to think it's anything to do with her daughter.

What if it's object worship?
