    Out of morbid curiosity I went on r/conservative to see what they were saying about the files.

    Go there and it’s like Epstein who? Not a single thread, it’s all threads attacking AOC or threads defending racism with more racism

        Nobody is more cowardly than Conservatives, it’s their baseline state at all times. They are constantly in a near state of panic over all their perceived enemies crashing through the door at any moment.

        That sub is a small sample of the conservative base. Virtually every conservative I talk to in person is simply more ignorant overall, and often just parrot talking points (like black men who voted for him saying he’s not racist because he donated to black colleges when Harris didn’t, but she sent innocent black men to jail, etc).

        They are literally and figuratively fucking dumb. Magical thinking, horoscope, and firmament believing nutters.

      :/ Yeah.

      Did he say that?
      A couple of weeks ago I realised that power is an actual drug for some people. And that a certain type can, like any alcoholic or coke-head, lose their mind over this addiction. This would explain all the pedo stuff. Most of these crazies probably are no clinically diagnosed pedophiles, but what do you do if you already own everything, cars, houses, yachts and islands? You come up with stuff everyone would go to jail for, like raping minors. It’s coked out of their minds power addiction and we as a society need to make sure, that people are not exposed to it for too long.
      Am I rambling? Made perfect sense to me when I first thought about it. :)

        The original quote was saying that he could shoot a man in the middle of 5th street and not lose any votes. But yeah, he probably could rape a child on the street, and he would have apologists lining up to justify it.

          Also lining up to take pictures and beg for a turn, if the preponderance of pedophiles in their leadership continues as a trend in the voters.

    They’ve already decided rape is fine. Now they’ve decided child rape is fine too.

    Having a pedo rapist as Preznit has opened the door wide for these fucking losers to just say it all out loud. Just look at the game Pragmata— there used to be a time when you’d goon after a CHILD like that and you’d get reported and removed. Their new motto: “Our Preznit iz a Pedo so itz ok lawl wut u mad libruls???”

    Most of the conservatives I know have said something along the lines of “there’s still nothing incriminating trump directly”

      Just make sure you don’t place muzzle at the chin, that’s amateur hour, can shift and blow off just your face, leaving you with more problems.

      Place muzzle back a few inches below the ear, pointing up into the brain. If you know where the cerebellum is, you’ll have even better success when pointing to that.

      Oh, wait. You ARE taking about suicide, right?

      Everyone is saying it. Lots of very smart people. Recently a genius by the name of Alfred Einstein came to me. Big man. Smart man. Had tears in his eyes and he said “Mr. President Trump if Trump International Airport, they are named after you because you are such a wonderful man and president and you saved us all from the monster.”
