It's pleasant to see Pres. Trump and his base bicker over the Epstein files, but it raises a question: Why didn't the Ds attack Mr. Trump more with the Epstein story when he was running for office? It would have been much more effective with his supporters than claims of fascism.
He can't deny his connection, https://www.threads.com/@newrepublic/post/DMYJm9QxWSH
I always bang the drum that #Democrats pretty much promoted #Trump back into office with their campaign strategies that played exactly into the rhetoric he was using.
I was saying it at the time, and I feel sadly vindicated.
Why didn't Ds attack Trump over #Epstein? Well, I always said they should have attacked Trump over his failures and incompetence.
Instead, as you say, they attacked him with cries of fascism that only built him up in the eyes of voters that were into certain policy proposals.
IMO it was because Ds were more focused on preaching to their own choirs than actually defeating Trump.
And so not only did they lose but they HELPED Trump win.
Sadly, they have not changed course now.
