Chronicling the collapse of the United States

MAGA owes the world an explanation

Trump just bribed Ghislaine Maxwell, a child sex trafficker, by transferring her to a minimum security facility—something that people with these types of convictions are typically not eligible for—in exchange for her silence. How do we know it was in exchange for her silence? Because this bribery/extortion tactic is what he always does. It’s his M.O. It's why he got convicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business documents as part of a hush money scheme, and it's what got him impeached the first time (for extorting Ukraine by withholding aid unless they manufactured dirt on Biden), and it's the whole point of his tariffs, to bribe and extort (or blackmail) the rest of the world into giving him what he wants (the bribe here being lower tariffs).

But aside from all that, he did a solid for a convicted child sex trafficker by moving her to a minimum security facility.

Even if you want to claim that the impeachments and the felony convictions were all a witch hunt against Trump, and even if you want to claim it wasn’t in exchange for her silence, if you're a die-hard MAGA supporter, how do you defend this? How do you defend helping out a convicted child sex trafficker by transferring her to a minimum security facility, which sex offenders are typically not eligible for? Your whole worldview was, in large part, built around the idea that Democrats are child sex traffickers and Trump will expose them. But now the FBI is redacting any mention of Trump from Epstein documents, and Trump had Ghislaine Maxwell moved to a cushy minimum security facility.

This was your whole thing, the whole conspiracy theory that Democrats were child sex traffickers, that Trump was going to release the Epstein files, which would implicate all the Democrats. You all accepted that Epstein and Maxwell were child sex traffickers. That was integral to your whole worldview. But Trump just did a favor for Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker. If your guy is the hero and Democrats are the villains, then why is your guy doing favors for child sex traffickers?

I would genuinely like to hear MAGA's explanation for continuing to support Trump. And I really think MAGA supporters owe the world an explanation, given the damage Trump is doing to the world. You all put him in there in large part because you were against child sex traffickers. You all even made your shitty conservative movie about child sex trafficking. One of you even stormed a pizza place with an assault rifle because he thought Democrats were operating a child sex ring in the basement. Of course, it was just a pizza place, there was no child sex ring there, and there wasn’t even a basement.

But I know where you can find someone who likely is a child sex trafficker and who likely was involved in Epstein’s child sex ring. He lives part-time in a large white house located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. In fact, I heard the suspect was even up on the roof the other day exhibiting highly unusual and suspicious behavior. If he’s not there, you’ll probably find him at 1100 S. Ocean Blvd in Palm Beach, Florida. I heard he spends a lot of time there, too.

All sarcasm aside, though, I think you MAGA supporters owe the world an explanation. You all helped dismantle American democracy and are complicit in the death of millions, and you all justified it in part with the claim that Democrats are child sex traffickers, even though it’s your party’s members that overwhelmingly keep getting busted for sex crimes, including child sex crimes.

And now, there’s your guy, your grand hero, doing a solid for a convicted child sex trafficker.

What do you all have to say for yourselves?
