    It’s wild that, among other things, the sitting president of the United States fucked children.

    This is conservative reality. If that isn’t enough to get you to the polls to vote in whatever manner is most likely to end that reality, then you don’t deserve to live in a democracy.

      What if the voters are child molesters too. Maybe they all just like to fuck children. Then they obviously wouldn’t vote against that.
      When you stop excluding a set of possibilities just because they would be horrible, US politics start making sense.

      It’s also liberal reality.

      See Epstein and his friends, liberals abound, it’s not a conservative circle.

        There are plenty of both. Thiel, Moot, Gates, Clinton, Trump, Bannon. When will you people stop pushing the 2 party narrative? We are all owned by the rich.

        I don’t think that’s what they mean by “conservative reality”. I don’t know of any liberal overlooking, making excuses, or actively voting for a child abuser.

    I was thinking yesterday how I’m just so ashamed that the public at large has largely said, “Oh well!” and moved on to the next thing as they usually do. I guess I was stupid to think my fellow Americans would start a movement to get rid of all these fuckers.

      The current Congress has been one of the least productive in terms of passing laws… But one they did pass was the Epstein Files Transparency Act. It was the best chance to hold perpetrators to account, and had bipartisan support (which is hard to come by these days).

      What I’m getting at is nobody has said “oh well”, but a handful of people appointed to the right positions have blocked anything from moving forward with it. And that’s frustrating as hell. There are also tons of distractions, such as the war in Iran or anything about the ballroom, which can make it feel like The Trump-Epstein Files™ are behind us. But they’re not.

      (Though they should be)

        Well, I’m happy they are at least performing like the clowns they are, but I am more of talking about my fellow Americans. The normal citizens who don’t hold any power like myself. Those are the ones (including mine) whose hands it has fallen upon to stand firm and demand the administration face any consequences for all the fuckery they have done and continue to do every single day.

        Ah, yes. Let me go out by myself and start demanding the current administration be held accountable… I’m sure that will go as smoothly as I imagine…

        Besides giving that answer, why don’t you talk to me about what you and I can do together to get more people involved?

          This is the mindset that defeats the possibility: ‘I must do this myself’ Most people stop there.

          You have it exactly right with the second part of course, you have to organize so that isn’t the case. Anyone who wants this to stop, their job is to meet 10 real people who agree that enough is enough.

          Imagine what you can do with 10 focused and organized people in coordination. Imagine if it was their job to find 10 more people who are focused and organized. How big of a punch might you throw with 100 good people, assuming you don’t want to waste your effort marching around the street waving signs and shouting slogans?

          Here’s a slogan for you: Organize, OPSEC, Overthrow

        Why don’t you?

        You’re one plane ticket away from Washington D.C., just like most of the USA.

        I’m sure your country supports and enables the USA in many ways, why don’t you start a movement to end that support, at least?

    Let’s also not forget that the alleged 🐐 fucker’s 🐐 fucking best friend wrote to someone else:

    “I have met some very bad people, none as bad as Trump. Not one decent cell in his body.”

      … it’s also horrible how all the horrible kid raping itself overshadows all the horrible (individual & mass) murdering & global ecosystem destruction that threatens/kills millions further propagating the seemingly inevitable cycle of escalating violence & death.

    Well actually if you look at the “evidence” it’s actually a bunch of sheep getting fucked, not goats. Goat fucking is fucked up, but sheep fucking I can maybe look past. I’m actually way way more angry that you would confuse the two than I am angry at the sheep fucking itself.

    My opinion is that social media algorithm polarised and poisoned everyone’s minds. We have become corralled into our own different sets of reality. So, we only see what we want to see and not see what others see.

    I know this is a shitpost, but honestly I think AOTUS was a trafficker who even out did Epstein. This is why Epstein and Trumplethinskin had a falling out. Epstein came sniffing around Maralago and saw that Trump was doing the same thing. They were competing child pimps.

      Nah, Trump is a malignant narcissist, never in a million years would he do something with other people in mind. Everything he does is for his own benefit and no one else, because hes a selfish fuck.

      My theory is that Trump stopped using Epstein and started trafficking his own young girls, which is what caused the falling out. They’re both sick fucks.

        I think you have it backwards. Trump used beauty pageants to recruit girls for his businesses: 100% known. Epstein later poached those girls, likely after a “massage” at mar a lago. Epstein notably said something about wanting to make his own beauty pageants similar to trump’s and saw trump as more amoral than himself.

        There was rumor going around that the falling out was purely over a piece of real estate the orange kid fucker wanted that the other kid fucker bought.

      Their falling out was literally about Epstein recruiting one of Trump’s underage “locker room attendants.”

      AOTUS

      Hmm. A and P are at opposite ends of most keyboards. Not a typo then?

      Ass of the United States?

      Trumplethinskin

      I think I love your writing.
