I know the US has it's failings, but I believe if Trump were in front of a jury of 12 and all the evidence was laid out he would be convicted. The corruption is that we have weak people in the DOJ that won't bring charges and we have weak people in the Supreme Court that will cover for him if anyone below grows a set.
I think a jury of 12 might fail because of all the mental programming that has been done over there.

No, it pretty surely is that he is a pedophile … he said so himself. It was recorded and he knew it was recorded. The fact that this was news in a lot of the country but not on any Republican-serving media source is testament to the lengths they went to in order to protect a disgusting human being.
What's really sick is that a bunch of Americans would've voted for him if they knew. Probably not enough to win an election even against Hillary Clinton who acted like the presidency was owed to her without campaigning, but enough to illustrate a problem in this country both with where people get their "facts" and how few care what the facts are.
He's mentioned 38,000 times so far. There's still supposed to be a metric fuck-ton of files left to release
He's mentioned that many times with redactions.
he is not mentioned 38000 times. this number comes from new york times article, where they count everything related to him, including locations.
so someone sending email to someone saying "orange cheeto with melania and donald junior will be spending christmas at mar-a-lago, said eric" counts as five for that count.
also the files contain collection of tips from the fbi hotlines, and his name there also counts and when you use the number 38000 as a proof, these tips are direct opposite, they are something that needs to be proved first.
not saying he isn't asshole, but people should know what they are saying.
I appreciate your desire to be correct, but don't let pedantry distract from the real issue. He's still one of the most mentioned people in the files, and that's what really matters, not the exact count.
But it does show connection
On the other hand his name was probably the most redacted one. They even redacted "don't" because it could be "Don.T". That's why you have to look at connections.
Watching from the outside. Americans seem pretty chill with that.
There isn't a whole lot of press coverage of the resistance unless a white person dies. It is happening though.
A lot of the people who aren't resisting are spending all of their energy just to keep food on their table and a roof over their head, scared shitless of a regime that delights in random violence. Make your own judgement on how good those reasons are, but that isn't the same thing as being ok with what's happening.
In particular, it's the devout Christians who seem to be breathing easiest with it.
It's for the same reason so many American's are ok with Billionaires. They don't want Billionaires taxed because they might some day be one.
And they don't want Pedophiles brought to justice, because if they get the chance, many of them would be one.
I'm looking at you, Christianity
He is for sure a pedophile though.
The weird thing is that it's been for sure as soon as he bragged about it in 2005, but the allegations of him walking in on teen locker rooms are from the 90s. His whole adult life has been a stream of constant sexual misconduct allegations, and now centrists are starting to clutch their pearls like this is a new development.
tthe locker walk is probably the most "mildest" evidence of how him being a deviant. him raping his wife because he got mad at her for telling him to get plastic surgery for his hair transplant.
That's a really good point. Sometimes I forget about his strategy of committing crimes faster than they can be logged.
Other than epstein himself, who else is named 38.000 times in the documents? And why would someone be named 38000 times in crime related documents?
Now that the newly released parts of the epstein files are getting worse and worse, why do people think someone named 38000 times so far in those files to be still suitable as a president?
because republicans support pedophiles, too be honest alot of them are complicit or have Sexual deviants themselves. i once followed a bunch of asian tubers that turned maga over covid times, 1 of them mentioned jokingly, he got an urge of "cannabalism" when he saw anatomy books,a nd the other one couldnt stop make pedopheliac/fredian slip/comments about a 4year hypothetical victim
Has anyone done a word cloud for the released files? Perhaps one that just counts names.
It is that Donald Trump is for sure a pedophile. And a child sex trafficker.
He's referenced 38,000 times.
YOU'RE TAKING THEM ALL OUT OF CONTEXT! IT'S AI! IT'S A LIBERAL PLOT! BIDEN! BIDEN DID IT. THE GRAND OLD PEDOPHILES WILL PROTECT HIM!
A president should be hunting them, regardless of political affiliation, like a hawk.
There is a need.
For billionaires, who need a useful idiot they can control. It's why they're normalizing electing presidents whose brains do not function properly.
The 350,000,000 who are not billionaires have no power whatsoever when it comes to selecting the president. Hell, in 2016 a five-minute meeting with a presidential candidate at a party convention cost upwards of $400,000.
Our only power is local.
Man, imagine reading this about 10-20 years ago.
And like not online but in a newspaper and on tv.
“Pinch me”
From what I can tell, the files talk about the Epstein monsters tearing down the fabric of our society so they can steal it and rule over us. The chaos is the point, I would say it's even a benefit for them to have such an obvious heinous piece of shit in charge of everything, the more he's in the files the better for them, it urges the collapse even more when it calls to question everything we know about the world around us
There are many things around the world that can be called into question, but the one definitive item in this world I will hold to - no matter how much the pot of obfuscation is stirred - is that Donald John Trump is a child fucker and sex trafficker.
That is ONE thing I know about the world and I will stick to it.
I think this is one of those times in history where there's a strong consensus among the public that he's a corrupt pedo who needs to be removed from office and face justice, however, that can't happen because the institutions that are supposed to keep people like him in check are so gutted and corrupted that they're effectively useless. Congress, federal agencies, the states, and the supreme court are supposed to hold him accountable, but they aren't because Trump and his cronies control just enough of each of these institutions to paralyze them. That's kind of fascism works, you lie to people to get into power and then erode every institution to cement yourself there forever.
