    What was he supposed to do? Like, Obama personally. Sign an executive order or something? Two of his Supreme Court picks were blocked cuz of bull shit I guess, maybe he should’ve fought harder?

    It’s the whole system tho. Stop thinking one side will save us they’re all on the same team and it’s not ours.

      Just playing Devil’s Advocate, but he could have blown everything up by releasing the Epstein files, and all of the other cases where the government is covering up crimes of the Epstein class.

        I mean, bullshit aside (I think they were “sealed” until a few years ago or whatever) what good would that have done? Snowden leaked the government spying on us, people don’t even know who he is anymore. Nobody cares.

        Kinda blackpilled perspective but even if Obama released the full, unredacted files, the most that would happen is a couple vigilantes trying to get justice. Our own government said they weren’t going to go after ANYONE in the files idgaf what reason they gave it’s not good enough.

        That shit blows my mind they actually just came out and said it instead of pretending to take a long time and hope people forgot. THAT’S how brazenly corrupt they are now.

      He was supposed to be popular, and hand off to someone popular. He made a deal to give it to Hillary in 2008 and somehow no one in the party challenged it, just as no one challenged Harris last time.

      The Party is broken. The leadership is the Enemy. Realize it and help us fix it!
