In reply to the discussion: GOP members say Epstein files are bad for Trump [View all]PatSeg
(52,553 posts)61. Sadly, that is true
I remember lots of exposes on Trump back in 2016 and throughout his first term. Just one or two of those scandals would have destroyed anyone else's career in a heartbeat, but it all just slides off his fat back. They decided early on that he was their guy and refused to listen to any well documented information on the man or as you say, they just don't care.
Ah but now his bullshit policies are hurting them personally, not just those they hate. Maybe he's not so great after all?

Then why aren't they turning on him and releasing everything they know? Not just Epstein but everything.

I was being sarcastic. I tried to put a sarcasm tag in angle brackets but it didn't show. New to posting.

Don't hold your breath. The files will probably never be released, if they still exist. If they are released, Trump

I will never understand why the Biden/Harris administration didn't release them

Even if there are no sex crimes described (and no doubt, they are. The guy has no discretion) then his empire is gone.

They're not as worried about Trump as they are about their own asses when he crumbles.
