    As you mentioned, his idiotic MAGA followers have the memory of a goldfish, and Trump bet on them forgetting his promise like they forgot all his other promises.

    All the orange utan normally had to do is to declare that something will happen in two weeks, then two weeks later, everybody has forgotten.

    But not with the Epstein thing. For some reason, the MAGA morons seem to latch onto this pedo thing a lot harder than onto anything else their cult leader threw at them and they don’t let go.

      They latch onto it because while they’re indeed bigoted racist twats, one thing they and we can both agree on is that diddling kids is bad.

      Unfortunately at this point comes in their advanced cognitive dissonance, ignoring any and all evidence - things that have been very much in your face since the late 90s, early 2000s really, but especially after 2016 - of cheetoh in chief being a paedo. They’ll gladly go after any and all paedos, even ones just randomly accused of it (see the whole Biden sniffing kids thing), except for Dear Leader. Which I find incredibly troubling, but at the very least some of them got disillusioned by how botched the tangerine turd handled the release of the files… Small victories and all.
