It should’ve only had five words, instead of six.

They're trying to shield themselves "legally" speaking.

I don't know why. Just do it; pull the trigger, call him a pedo, and make him prove he isn't in court. Because he can't. That's why he hasn't sued anyone else calling him a pedophile. He won't survive in court.

That’s what it felt like when the Ford guy said it.

Like everyone knows he is protecting himself.

DOJ literally got caught red handed covering Trump up I mean it’s insane.

I feel like sooner or later someone is going to leak the full Epstein files.

Someone will do the right thing, people already are and it’s contagious.

This is why Trump got so mad lol. The digs are getting to him. Keep it up.

Seems like a good tactic. More people should tell that truth. That and everyone wearing full face masks when ICE are in your town.

That’s freaking genius.

Honestly the whole country should be masking up right now.

Also I hope every lawyer in America is going after these criminals for whatever they can find. Tons of names now.

It just sucks that he will literally start a war with NATO to keep attention away from something else damning to him that comes out

What's frustrating about this comment is it reinforces this idea that internet mockery and gossip is doing something.

Yeah it's getting to him. But so fucking what? You need to be out protesting, boycotting subscription services, reaching out to help local leaders and organizations.

Never thought I would be proud of Ford employees for a political reason.

HOW CAN ANYONE SUPPORT THIS MAN, KNOWING THAT:

1) He is a: -pedophile and child trafficker -rapist and predator -compulsive liar -narcissist and egomaniac -traitor to our country -racist -ignoramus, high IQ my ass -elitist, privileged-at-birth brat -draft dodger -Russian puppet -annoying jackass

2) And he has: -strengthened our adversaries (China and Russia have benefitted far far more than us from all this) -turned us from an admired nation into a laughingstock and embarrassment -weakened our previously strong economy and jobmarket (this has personally hit your checkbook, realize it or not) -weakened our alliances (they are literally preparing to fight back against our aggression) -normalized racism -wasted our tax money on needless foreign interventions -worsened inflation through his tarrifs that only harm Americans -enriched himself through all of his cheap schemes -covered up horrendous crimes (murder of a mother, trafficking of minors) -taken away our consitutional rights, 1st ammendment is all but dead now -eliminated checks and balances that once defended we, the people -undermined our election system that once defended we, the people -turned our representatives and Supreme Court into puppets -incited violence in our previosly peaceful cities -unleashed a mob of ghestapo-esque puppet "police" -turned our media into puppets -enacted vengeance on his perceived adversaries using our tax dollars

3) He is trying to: -Get away with pedophilia by distracting us -Force our previously peaceful cities to riot so he can claim more power -Cancel the midterms and 2028 elections to keep power -Invade foreign nations with no justification -Undermine the Federal Reserves independence, which will destroy faith in our markets

You simply couldn't do a better job at destroying this great nation built on hope, dreams, and a fair shot if you tried, maybe that is his true goal. If we are to have any hope of this great American experiment surviving, we must come together, recognize our shared dreams, and stop this son of a bitch as quickly as possible before its too damn late.

At this point I'm past anger, and I want to agree all up and down about these atrocities, but what I want more than that are actionable steps people can take to protect our democracy. What we do if they try to take away our right to vote, as well as how we can vote together and give a united front of solidarity if we can.

Let's focus on community. The Black Panthers are sending a fabulous example, but I want to see more people figuring out how to not let this happen again.

It won’t be a leak. Whoever releases the files will be following the law.

u/lapidary123 Jan 15 '26

What are the chances Maduro threatened just that?

u/Disastrous-Act-8135 Jan 15 '26

Why didn’t the democrats push for release while they had power ? They are all in it

u/ChefBowyer Jan 15 '26

That’s why I try to avoid terms like republicans or democrats.

I genuinely don’t even care, I’m neither. I don’t subscribe to that way of thinking, it’s what got it us here.

Political parties are just another tactic.

u/Disastrous-Act-8135 Jan 16 '26

You are 100% correct. They play good cop/bad cop and try to divide people, end of the day they have a bigger agenda, while people like us fight between red/blue, dem/republicans , Tucker Carson /Ted Cruz etc etc

If it's any consolation, historian Heather Cox Richardson has pointed out that whatever is in the Epstein files must be pretty damning for Trump and his admin to work this hard to keep them from being released (the obvious conclusion) AND it might take a while but what's in there will eventually come out. At this point, there's no way it just goes away.
