They wouldn't, they have it too comfy to give a shit about raped kids or anything. The pdf files are still in charge, no transparency, no accountability, when Epstein is brought up now they laugh, because americans are a big fat joke to them.

regular old US imperialism raining death poverty and despair upon the third world is just a small unimportant distraction from the real issue: our leaders are pedophiles and we will do nothing about it.

No they fucking wouldn't. Like how is the active murder of children and civilians supposed to distract from his past crimes? They should be rioting even harder if anything

Remember how Americans democratically elected Trump into office? Or how they took to the capitol violently because Trump denied the election results? Where does this delusion come from that Americans would suddenly stand up against Trump.
