Do you think there is anything unknown at this point that’d actually make a difference? Even saying Trump could rape a child live on Fox News wouldn’t hurt him is old hat now. I don’t buy into the idea that his voter base and staff will magically grow a conscience in response to…anything. The people opposed to him, is there something that gets them to actually organise and do something about the rot? I’m on the outside looking in so idk.
I think the problem is that the fraction of people you’re referring to absolutely would care had they not been basically trained to reflexively dismiss claims of wrongdoing against “daddy” as “fake news”. History is probably going to say trump was probably the most effective con man the world has ever seen.
I don’t think so. Trump is undoubtedly a con man. However, I think it’s going to be studies about the media and misinformation channels that dominate history books. Trump doesn’t have psychological insight. He acts on impulse and is a compulsive liar and narcissist. It’s how he was portrayed and how social media, in particular “engagement” driving views and clicks that will be studied. Obviously, the owners of these channels realised the power of the algorithm, just like previous oligarchs realised the value of newspapers and tv stations. It just became more hidden and personalised how we were being manipulated.
A guy held a sign in support of a Reform candidate in the UK saying he’d rather have Jimmy Saville than the other candidates and Reform voters are saying it’s AI. Reform is one of the fascist parties (and ahead in the polls).
Do you not realize, that there could be worse things out there of him? Unreleased and unredacted.

Yeah, there’s a fair chance that he might be a murderer also. That’s also out there.
And not a single voter will care.

i think if theres actual footage of him doing these things, tides turn quickly.
You mean firing up the disinformation machine? Yes.
Just think of all the videos of people being murdered by police and the ICE thugs, it wont amount to anything.
Do you not realize that anyone who doesn’t care about everything we already know, is just going to continue to not care?
Do you not realize that there were so many pages redacted, and it wasn’t just the victims?
Trump voters dont care if they are redacted or not. He is a cult leader. They will drink the kool aid because theyre narcissistics
Oh, I’m sure of it. The people who are going to care, already do, his sycophants will continue to support him NO MATTER WHAT.
True, evil people with money and money talks apparently.
So far he’s shown no sense of shame or even that his victims are people, and his followers don’t seem to care
