For weeks, Trump and members of his administration, some of whom spread anti-Democratic conspiracy theories about Epstein, have been trying to quiet the MAGA base after the FBI declared there was no client list and that the disgraced financier died by suicide. The same manosphere that boosted Trump isn’t letting his administration off the hook on Epstein, even as Trump has tried to dismiss the whole thing as a hoax.
The young men in his base aren’t doing better economically, and also feel stabbed in the back by Trump’s refusal to RELEASE UNREDACTED COPIES OF THE EPSTEIN FILES.
Ehhhh even that should be questioned pretty hard. If they’re just pulling a Mr Beast and making more money by doing a facsimile of charity work, or merely making a “charitable donation” so they can deduct a bunch of taxes, then they’re still kinda’ being a money-grubbing shitstain.
Should they be thanked anyways? Sure, I guess. Though what you shouldn’t do is view them as a good person for it. That’s just perpetuating the, “money is a virtue” thing.
