Outside of DoJ actually prosecuting Trump and the others implicated in the file (what does my head in is despite what we've seen so far is the idea that nothing in the files is actionable) what is the point?
The DoJ was able to make a case against Ghislane but no one else? Yeah right.
If the government cannot, will not, prosecute then what is the point of the files? And because it's all underlined with the "some of the accusations are unfounded and invalid" it gives the MAGA sphere the ability to put their cognitive dissonance glasses on and argue it away.
Just like how they argued and denied the mountains of evidence, especially in relation to his sexual assault cases, much of it from the fucker's very mouth, that he was a rapist and paedophile.
We knew this back in 2014-2015 during the campaign that he had raped and sexually assaulted women under the age of 18 in his competitions. We already have strong circumstantial evidence that he raped his daughter. We even have a court of law stating he is a rapist.
Not to to mention the many, many, many women, long before Epstein, all stating Trump had raped them.
At this point who needs these files? And don't give me that if the public know so they don't vote for him.
And this is just the personal matters against Trump. You could write for days the crimes he has wrought against so many people and countries (ie ICE concentration camps for adults and children, invasions, kidnapping Heads of state, missile attacks, bombings, threatening neighbours/allies, destroying global health efforts, destroying institutions, purposefully making millions starve to name a few)
It's everywhere and not just against openly fascist and illegal agents and government officals. Even in blue states state and local law enforcement agencies are refusing to enforce laws (even existing ones) that ICE are not just putting a toe over but who are openly shitting on.
Your system was already semi broken. This whole affair has revealed the wood rot behind the wall.
Decades of civil rights abuses, murder and perniciously aggressive prosecutions against minorities of all backgrounds has shown your is just a pretty a nice to have guidelines. (and even then it's a pretty flawed document)
What should be happening is Schumer and the other conservative liberals (and the progressive socialists) get up, shut down the government and declare a general strike with the until Trump is arrested and his government removed. Including the removal of the corrupt judges in the supreme court.
Words don't cut it anymore.
