"I foolishly thought the drawing and the exchange would be a bit more tasteful. Turns out it was worse than I had imagined."

As I suspected, there are still a lot of people out there that have never really truly convinced himself that Donald Trump is a real degenerate.

They've repeatedly said he's a pedophile and a rapist but in their heart, they've never really believed it

"Personally I am not convinced that Trump's illegally had sex with minors,"

and that's clearly the overwhelming opinion of those who scream pedo and rapist daily.

Not sure if being convinced with evidence is really all that important to anybody.

It's virtually irrelevant if no actual evidence is found.

It's believed. There can never be proof he didn't rape kids. There can only be a lack of evidence he did.

But people need to believe what they need to believe.

At this point, I hope we find evidence Trump raped kids even if it's false or planted.

"But real people demand real evidence."

who are the "real people"?

and....evidence of what, exactly?

That Trump is evil?

or that he's a bonafide criminal.....and I mean someone who has actually committed a crime to be prosecuted for.

Is there really anybody left who hasn't made up their mind who gives a shit?

-So just release the EPSTEIN FILES so that we can judge,

did you go to law school and suddenly become a prosecutor or a judge?

do you or do you not care about there actually being a criminal investigation to take place?

"Honest people want to know the honest truth.
It's always been that way."

honest people also watch football.

They don't want the truth....they want to win.

at the end of the game when the officials uphold a play that represents the winning touchdown (ie...the previous play is under review....).....the winning team doesn't give the ball back and ask the refs to reverse the call based on "truth".

they take the win.

this feels more like that.

-We vote and elect representatives and, ostensibly, the President. We need to know - and it doesn't matter if it's been adjudicated.

excellent point. And the files contain names that only appear on a ballot? Of course not.....lots and lots of names I suspect are included in this.

And they aren't elected officials.

I'm no expert on this but aren't criminal investigations supposed to stay out of the public eye until they are complete?

-Isn't the release of the files regarding the criminal investigations into Epstein and Maxwell what everyone is waiting for?

right. are those investigations over?

-he already is a "bonafide criminal ".

agreed.....but that makes him guilty of any crime you wish to assign to him?

It's funny...the media can convince anyone apparently to suspend the rule of law and believe we can prosecute trump for rape on CNN.

To satisfy my curiosity....yes, I'd love for all the files to be released.

But I'm pretty sure congress, the FBI, the DOJ....couldn't give 2 shits about satisfying my curiosity.

"Good luck prosecuting him tho. The Supremes are not going to allow and risk losing all their bribes."

Yeah, it's just a big football game that you're already convinced you're going to lose.

You got the better team. The other team cheats.......but the goddam refs.

-Trumpers should be embarrassed.

they don't care.

"clean up the mess that republicans will leave us in."

I don't disagree with regards to the economy, geopolitical issues, etc.....what does that have to do with this Epstein thing?

-He was literally found to by a court to be liable for the rape of E Jean Carroll.

civil court, yes.

But that's not going to satisfy anybody here. That's not a win.

Not over this Epstein business. this has to result in a criminal consequence.
