      They were happy to keep them buried, two of their majors (both clintons) are implicated and surely a boatload of their donors are in there too. None of this Epstein stuff would be happening if the GOP base hadn’t clamped onto it in the deluded belief that only democrats are pedos, now the GOP is in a tight spot. You don’t have to hand it to them, but the dems were smarter and kept the lid on tight about pedo shit because it could harm everybody.

          We’re a decade into Q anon whose primary “issue” has been calling the democrats pedophiles. Q has infected even the crunchy granola apolitical libs, the pedophile thing has definitely harmed the dems.

          The dems are very defensive. They were happy to crow about sexual assault with the Me Too movement, it was front and center for a few years. The instant there was an accuser against Biden (plus decades of Biden being a public figure who is pathologically unable to keep his hands off any woman or girl on stage with him) the dems dropped Me Too like a hot rock and it’s been dead for five years now.

            But their exposure is basically clintons and gates, for people willing to throw metoo and blm under the bus, throwing those under the bus seems trivial

                  If you’re a communist, sure. These are liberals. Their donors are representatives of their own economic class. They have solidarity with their economic class. There aren’t consequences for them losing a race, but there absolutely are consequences for acting as class traitors.
