    After Epstein

    Except Americans voted for Trump after Epstein. Everyone knew they were literally partners in crime. It was public knowledge so don‘t tell me anyone can possibly be surprised by this outcome. What a bunch of child rapist supporting hypocrites.

      I mean up until recently they were all like, “haha just wait until the list comes out and all you libtards get yours.” Of course, now that trump has made it abundantly clear he’s on it (as opposed to it just being normally clear he was on it before), they’ve split into gullible idiots who feel betrayed and cultish idiots who now think pedophilia is actually not so bad somehow.

    A bit of due diligence may have been helpful in their decision making. Nothing of substance about Trump was not known before the election.

      I don’t want to excuse their decision, but want to point out some context. Right-wing media is really effective at throwing out a ton of bullshit to obfuscate reality. The right-wing bubble throws out shit like Democrats having underground pedophile rings being run in DC pizza restaurants. Meanwhile Trump was found to have committed rape by a court.

      Many conservative voters either:

      • Don’t hear about the second one
      • Or hear about both and decide that all news is mostly made up trash like the National Inquirer

        its called firehose of falsehood, create many false narratives to the point your opponents dont know how to respond to it, this also doubles internal propaganda the target base wouldnt know what is true or not. and yes its russian strategy, and fox works with putin closely with the propaganda.

        another one was pretty much gaza muslims, refuse to vote for biden, eventhough it had no statistical different on the voting numbers before the election.

    This article expresses opinions which are so dumb that it hurts.

    Thinking that Trump is “anti-establishment” was fucking stupid to begin with. As a millionaire he is by definition part of the elite.

    And if it takes the Epstein case to realize that you have been duped you’re also a bit late to the party. They have been taking everything they can from you and gave it to the rich for months now, and there is no end in sight. Enjoy working those shit jobs for minimal wages. Those that were previously done by immigrants which you wanted to see deported.

    Also the whole gullible MAGA male problem is not limited to Gen Z. Being a dumb fuck is a fun activity for the whole family.

      These people were brainwashed for decades that their biggest fears are people with darker skin tones ( and the “elite pedophile cabal”). They are happy getting fucked as long as enough of those are getting fucked aswell. I have seen so many repubes getting rock hard over the Gestapo kidnapping people that most of them would ignore Trump having sex with children in the middle of the street.

      I really do not see many people in the cult caring about Epstein. While those people exist and are pretty vocal about it, most Trump-fans are so racist and so deeply entrenched in their believes that it will take a miracle to save the U.S.

      I do not believe in miracles but i kind of hope for your guys sake and also mine.
