That’s my thinking, US citizens are prisoners of the immorality of the richest regardless of their political contributions. Trump has masterfully exploited this with the “devide and empire” maxime.
Comment on Why democrats under Biden administration didn't release Epstein files?

Because a bunch of them are also child rapists

Note how normal people have no issue saying that Democrats may be (or likely are) in the Epstein files, but MAGAs are like “The files are a hoax but if they exist he is not in them but if he’s in them it’s just a juvenile mistake, who cares”

A lot of their donors as well.

Yup.
Clintons were very good friends with Biden but also trump.
Neoliberals poisoned the party so much that during Epstein’s hey day the letter by a name didn’t matter, trump himself was a big donor to the Dem party back then.
Neither Biden or trump could release just the names of people they don’t like, because they’d snitch on the people they liked and then you’re on the hook for protecting the ones you liked.
Someone like AOC is the only shot at a president that would actually release it. We need more politicians who have a loyalty to voters over a party.
Party leadership changes, and we got a rare window right now the party won’t block someone like AOC. We can’t count on that being true in 2032 if she doesn’t feel ready in 2028.
Ready or not, it’s time.

You act like Bernie doesn’t exist. I’m 100% confident that he’s not assosiated with that hot mess in any way.

The OP said “with a shot at [presidency].
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 months ago
C’mon now. Old elderly white men who could die any minute is what this country has exclusively elected since 2016.
If anything he has a better chance than AOC at being president, simply for having white hair, wrinkles, and a penis.
