GOP does not really care about pedos, kids or whatever.
They are however, and thats no news, ABUSERS and enablers of abuse and children are just easy prey.
Pedophilia is a welcome smokescreen for any political party as it is much easier to deflect such allegations than talking about the actual abuse that has happened.
People will now scream some weeks about pEdOpHiLiA, while Drumpf and his Goons continue their destruction of democracy. And then people will forget about pedophilia for about one week until there is need for another smokescreen.
If literally abduction in broad daylight won't get the american ass up from their couch, you sure these unreleased papers will? I would love to be wrong. In the meantime i will have to suffer reading about pedophilia a dozen times daily because thats americans number one obsession.
That's the funny part. If they released the papers, why would it end any different than the Panama papers? No one is going to prosecute them (well, maybe some people overseas might face consequences) so they could've just laundered them by flooding the zone in misinfo
But now? Part of Trump's core base are true believers and really care about this. They're conspiracy theorists, and the admin just wiggled an obvious juicy conspiracy in their faces before covering it up cartoonishly
Thing is, a lot of people think tax fraud is perfectly fine. Not quite so many people think raping kids is okay.
Okay, well Trump almost certainly raped kids. Bill Clinton too. We have a lot of evidence suggesting that. Many members of Congress in fact - MTG said the quiet part out loud and openly threatened them about it (a few months back when that one guy paid underage prostitutes on Venmo)
But it doesn't seem to matter, does it? Why isn't there a mob outside MTG's house demanding she explains why she's protecting child rapists?
We all know already. Why would another scrap of evidence matter? Why aren't we demanding investigations of all of them?
People aren't ok with the tax evasion either, it just doesn't matter if no one prosecutes them
