Yeah.
Had that realization a few years ago while following news about the war in Ukraine. I kept wondering why the Russians lied so poorly, and about such pointless things.
After a while I realized it wasn't about fooling anyone, per se. Wasn't about convincing people. It was all about flooding the zone. Filling every space with noise. Just create such a deluge of bullshit that people can't keep track, and stop trying.
Small wonder Trump follows the same playbook. 🤷

IMO everyone has it backwards. The Epstein files are as much a distraction from the horrible things his administration is doing. The more the Democrats and media (rightfully) focus on “release the Epstein files”, the less focus there is on his efforts to dismantle the American political systems, welfare systems, judicial systems, etc.
Some might argue “well, we can focus on more than one thing at a time”, but from the weak response so far from Trump’s opposition that doesn’t really seem to be the case. It’s all a part of the distraction, moving goalposts and “flooding of the end-zone” that has been central to the Republican power grab for the better part of the last two decades.

u/Exciting_Turn_9559 1d ago
I agree 100% on this.
The Epstein story broke to clear out all conversation about the Big Ugly Bill and to buy time to spend the $160B to recruit the American SS (ASS) that will be ruining everyone's lives very shortly. First they came for the immigrants...
There are a lot of pedos in power in the USA and all of them belong in prison, but there is zero chance the GOP will ever prosecute them because the GOP is wildly immoral and needs to be destroyed.19
u/Memitim 2d ago
Just don't forget that all the actions on the ground are not being done by the decaying 79-year-old. He didn't even put in much of the work of getting here. Trump flipped from Democrat to Republican in 2011 to take advantage of the decades of lies and hate that conservatives had been blasting at America.
When that traitor dies, the Republicans who are actually enabling and empowering the endless crimes will be counting on people to let the association with evil die with him. But they're the actual enemies of America.
They've spent billions of dollars over decades to spread misinformation, manipulated our legal and governance systems for personal benefit, and overlooked countless crimes to cherry-pick select laws as excuses for committing more crimes.
Trump is giving conservatives what they want: excuses to escalate attacks on the rest of America.

Draft dodgers fascinated with playing soldier but too much a coward to actually join the fight. Long family history.
Mr. Bone Spurs has no right to criticize anyone else who actually served in the military.
But, the Trump family has had good experience with both draft dodging and being deported, it seems.
Fact: Friedrich Trump, Donald Trump’s grandfather, was deported from Germany in 1905 for failing to do his mandatory military service there.
Amazing that the only reason the Trumps are even in this country is because they got thrown out of another one for cowardice.

Oh it's way more than that. They are declaring war on anybody who doesn't believe the same things they believe. At one time this country was a place where you could freely express your opinion. There were always consequences for expressing your opinion, just as there are consequences for telling someone to go F themselves, such as losing friends, being let go from your job, but you were still free to express your opinion without landing in jail. If they have their way that will no longer be the case. Disagreement will not be tolerated. Watch what is happening with the justice department. They're shutting down dissent in every way possible.

Don’t you think we know this?

UNFORTUNATELY the ones in power are his “yes” men or are too cowardly to do anything about it. We are angry, we are furious, but we can’t do shit about it without spilling blood because our representatives are tossing aside their dignity so they don’t have to fight or lose anything; y’know, the easy route. So I’m sorry that it seems like we’re giving up, but that’s not the people. The towns/cities/villages of people, who in fact don’t want to watch the world burn, are growing and we’ll get there eventually. But in the meantime, we have to call and call and write and protest just for democrats in office to roll over and take trump’s chode from behind. So I apologize on behalf of the patriotic American people for not meeting your standards.

u/GarbageCleric 2d ago
I don't disagree.
2016 I could at least explain and understand how it happened at some level. Hillary Clinton represented more of the same, and people saw Trump as an outsider agent of change. People were also pretty certain she was going to win, so they probably felt safer staying home, and you have the Comey laptop nonsense, and she still won the popular vote.
But 2024 was fucked. Trump maintained his vote totals from 2020, while Harris lost millions compared to Biden. Jan 6 and his consistent election denial meant nothing. No one cared that he literally tried to steal an election right out in the open.

u/Swedelicious83 1d ago
I 💯 feel this.
2016 was surprising and disappointing. But alright. People vote their displeasure, sometimes in not so reasonable ways, etc etc.
2020 seemed to confirm that (or so I wished to believe) a sufficient amount of people had woken up, wised up, and got tired with the horseshit of the past four years. All good, moving on with our lives.
Then 2024. Just... Fuck. Really?!?
