Let's not pretend Bill Clinton wasn't Epstein's buddy too. The DNC is just as disgusting, and until liberals realize they're actually just neo-liberals, nothing change.
Your downvotes won't take Bill Clinton off the Epstein client list, you're denying it exactly like Magats deny Trump's.
Nobody here is defending Bill, and he's not the POTUS. Your whataboutism is gross.
I mean the comment they replied to is literally downplaying the involvement of other pedophiles just as involved as Trump was. It doesn't matter if it's using sarcasm to do it or not. That's the intention.
The entire point people should get out of this is that defending rich pedophiles (much like defending Israel) is a bipartisan issue that both parties will always agree on. Do they spin it differently. Sure. But come the fuck on.
The person doing "whataboutism" is the person that made the initial sarcastic comment. Literally bringing up other sex pests for the exact same reason their comment is making fun of. To compare the sex pests between parties and downplay their involvement by comparison.
You can't say "whataboutism" when the literal comment your replying to was responding to and criticizing a "whataboutism" in the first place.
The original comment was in the voice of Trump. It's the type of thing he would say to distract from people looking into him. It was satire, not sarcasm.
Learn context clues. You're ranting about something that wasn't even an issue.
Bill Clinton isn't currently president. Focus on the real problem first, and surprisingly you'll probably pull the rest down with him. Weird, eh?!
The bullshit-ass false equivalency benefits fascists, so I guess you're outing yourself as one here. Whoops.
Aye comrade
Bill Clinton was a sleazy fuck. He used his position to get a blowie from an intern and a big deal was made of it. But I'm pretty sure the only one who tried to cover it up was the man himself. But to the best of my knowledge he didn't rape children at organised child rape parties with other child rapists. If it comes out that he did, then lock his ass up and throw away the key. A pedo's a pedo. Politics doesn't matter here.
Well he was on the flight logs with Prince Andrew, Kevin Spacy, and Donald Trump.
There has been no attempt to prosecute them.
All the more reason to make the files public.
Ничельный insult в русском языке.
We already know about clinton comrade. But Epstein said he was best friends with Trump for 15 years. That more relevant because he's the president today.
Jokes on you I don't like Bill Clinton either or any other child molesters
I don't know a single liberal that doesn't want Clinton to get arrested if he's on the list.
How about all the liberals in Congress?
Not too many of them. If you mean Democrats, any Epstein Democrats are as fair game as any MAGAs. Toss'em all in the hole, I don't care about them. We can replace them with new Representatives that will work for the people.
That might be a good litmus test for which ones are actual liberals.
I think you and the person you're responding to have different definitions of lib.
You're getting down voted for arguing with what is VERY OBVIOUSLY a sarcastic impression of a right winger response. No one is denying anything, you just decided to argue with a joke
Fucking team sports man. But in politics it's apparently who is less of a pedophile this week.
BlueMaga almost as dumb as Maga I swear.
The whole country has proven dumb.
Period.
One of the most disappointing things is seeing how excited libs are for some "abundance" policy. Like, they see the rise of fascism and maga voters regretting their choice and think to themselves "what if we did MORE neoliberalism?!"
I can't believe they can fall for the same vague promises with zero policy over and over and still think the maga voters are the only dumb ones.
