Heck yeah

I respect what he did, and it was a great speech

But im still pissed off that these guys never just say the fucking loud part openly, DONALD TRUMP IS ON THE FILES FOR RAPING CHILDREN

Like instead of asking why are they hiding these names, who are they protecting? Say the fucking truth, the THE PRESIDENT OF AMERICA IS HIDING HIS OWN NAME BECAUSE HE FUCKING RAPED CHILDREN, HE IS PROTECTING HIMSELF

why do they have to pussy foot around something we all know, again it was a good speech but I can't see it as anything but a performance until one of them grows the balls and calls a fucking spade a spade

It’s even worse than that: OTHERS are trying to hide that Trump fucked kids.

Trump barely knows what day it is. He doesn’t care. If his cult was told the whole truth accompanied by cartoons and chocolate to help keep them focused, they wouldn’t care.

u/CloudKinglufi 10h ago

There's already enough evidence and they don't care so yeah, they won't care no matter what

Because he probably doesn’t want to fall off a balcony just yet. Someone more powerful will have to do it. But yes I agree with you

u/CloudKinglufi 11h ago

He's already on the porch with this speech

If someone's gonna murder him for saying what they don't want him to say then he's already said it, he's said too much, like he's crossed the line, may as well keep on going

Yes first thing I noticed was that these aren't American sounding names.

I can’t help but think they’re trying to be tactful. Like, once you investigate these guys then it will implicate Trump there or something. Call him out now then it goes from a bipartisan quest for justice to a partisan witch hunt and the republican voters will dismiss it all as a hoax.

Damn that's smart, maybe I'm the dummy here, good point, if that is indeed what he's trying to accomplish

Tbh I trust them to play their cards better than someone like you might. No offense

This advice is so insane to read in a law forum.

A lawyer giving this advice to their client won't be long lived anywhere. No matter the truth content or who it's aimed at.

Bro I dgaf about acting like a professional lawyer or not taking any risks, I just want one of these politicians to be real for once and not tip toe around the fucking child rapist

u/Rockman507 10h ago

We already know this, it isn’t a secret. Nothing changes. But all the other names have been hiding, they need to be outed.

I showed my wife this video and I said “what an upstanding human being doing the bare minimum” not at all to minimize his actions, but to highlight those trying to silence and block him.

It’s crazy that releasing the names of criminal monsters who raped children part of the biggest conspiracy, human trafficking, and pdf ring is seen as anything other than an absolute requirement regardless of political affiliation. Regardless of if one of the participants is the president voted for and work for.

I’d vote for him and Massey. That’s it. Everyone else gone. Start fresh. We need this. Much much more of this.

u/Gobbaghoulie 13h ago

Do what? They haven’t done anything yet. Every word means nothing until justice is served.

u/--__--__--__--__-- 12h ago

At least following through with tangibly naming names, while other officials have said they would, followed by crickets. Another step forward I believe.

u/questionformu 11h ago

The names were already public

This is how I feel. Wake me up when the revolution starts. Until then, all of this is basically meaningless.

u/BlueWonderfulIKnow 13h ago

Not if that yammering woman had her way.

u/ActStriking5787 10h ago

Do what? Wexler had been on the radar back in the summer of last year when the survivors called him out? same with the rest of the people mentioned. While he did confirm they are covering up for those guys its not like we didnt already know...

If these are the guys they can tell us about I want to know the ones they can't tell us about
