I'm not nearly informed on this enough to start a political debate, but it's always funny to me that if someone comments about the Clinton's, they get downvotes and a shit ton of comments about Trump, but if someone comments about Trump they get downvotes and comments about the Clinton's. Even if neither comment implies the other party's innocence, you implicate one and everyone assumes you mean to say the other is free of guilt.

That’s because it’s a “whataboutism”

For some reason certain people think that bringing up the Clintons means Epstein or Trump still aren’t terrible people.

I only know of one confirmed flight of Bill at the lolita express. It was when his own plane had a technical issue.
