It does matter. Quite abit actually,
The political danger of the Epstein files for Trump
And the weird, creepy, way he is handling it just makes sure that it will be in the headlines. If more Republicans break from him next week, as expected, and he attacks them, as expected, this could easily be the main news story for several months at least.That’s because people are primed to believe there’s a real conspiracy beneath the surface, and Trump’s actions risk making him own it.
The polling tells the tale.
This is perhaps Trump’s worst issue, by the margin who disapprove. Americans generally disapprove of his and the administration’s handling of the Epstein matter by around a 3-to-1 margin in most polls. The most recent poll, a Reuters-Ipsos survey from last month, showed Americans disapproved of Trump’s handling of it 57%-19%. Independents disapproved 59%-10%.
And like virtually every other survey on the topic, not even a majority of Republicans said they approved: 44%.
Americans are also quite unhappy with the administration’s transparency and disclosure.
An August Pew Research Center survey showed 63% of Americans and even 38% of Republican-leaning Americans had little or no trust in what the Trump administration was saying about the matter.
Similarly, an August Quinnipiac University poll showed voters said 73%-16% that the Justice Department wasn’t being transparent about its investigation.
All of that said, this is clearly not a top-tier issue for most Americans. Relatively few have seemed to be paying close attention. Only about one-quarter were following it “extremely” or “very” closely in the Pew survey.
And holy crap! I never in a million years thought MTG to wake up with common sense, especially not one of the first. She was basically the birther of MAGA and now she is making more sense than some left-wing commentators. What universe is this? What happened??

So this is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause.


She's an actual true believer in the insane shit she peddles. That's one on the big splits I think we are going to see in Republican leaders and elected officials, half are just using all the conspiracy deep state rhetoric to support their grift and bids for power. The other half actually thinks it's all true and won't drop the subjects when it's no longer politically viable.

Wait… Trump blew Bill Clinton? How did I miss this?

So, MAGA is starting to eat their own now. Kash Patel, Vivek Ramaswamy, Dinesh D'Souza and other prominent Conservative Indian Americans are now actively being targeted by the same bigoted people who voted for Trump.
Remember, if you aren't white, male and a specific type of christian, you are considered "the other" and will be expelled in their world. MTG is starting to find this out quickly as they are also targeting her outright.

My favorite is this from Dinesh:
Sorry Dinesh, they literally talked like this. You just never went to any area where they were open about it. The far south has had no issue basically saying that you are lesser than them. And Dinesh, you want to know who legitimized it? The person you voted for and supported. Trump. He literally put a white nationalist in charge of all immigration policy. A one Mr. Stephen Miller. He put a Christian Nationalist as his VP. He also put another Christian Nationalist as someone who is in charge of multiple government agencies dealing with firing of government workers. A one Mr. Russell Vaught.“In a career spanning 40 years, I have never encountered this type of rhetoric. The Right never used to talk like this. So who on our side has legitimized this type of vile degradation?”
It's always "But I thought you thought I was one of the 'good ones'! Why are you being so racist to me when I've done everything you wanted me to, after I spent decades watching you be racist to everyone else who looks like me!"
All playing ball ever does with fascists is put you closer to the bottom of the list. It never takes you off the list, and the moment you're no longer useful to them, you go right to the top of the list.
These are very stupid people. But we're talking about Dinesh D'souza, here, that should go without saying. The man's always been a complete fuckin' moron.

"Law and Order", lots of places have had that, Russia, North Korea, Saddam's Iraq.
Laws can be made to enforce order of cruelty and brutality.
Equality and Justice, that is how you have peace and a society that benefits all.
