    Yes, but our president is literally the man with most dirt on earth, his election encourages fellow scums and criminals to run for office

      People keep drawing parallels between this and the Epstein stuff but I don’t think it’s really comparable.

      Like, wasn’t part of Epstein’s whole deal was he was discrete enough that while he himself eventually got busted more of his “clients” don’t have any smoking gun evidence against them? Neither Trump or Clinton or anyone else I think has had any dead to right shit come out against them. This means their supporters have enough plausible deniability that they can act like their guy just happened to hang with Epstein and didn’t know about all the shit going down (but the OTHER guy TOTALLY did).

      Meanwhile Platner’s accuser actually posted receipts, which combined with all the other CONFIRMED shit we know about him paints a picture that there’s no plausible deniability with.
