This is probably the more likely one. I don't for a second believe that if they had something concrete on Bill or any prominent Democrat really they wouldn't have been blasting it from the rooftops already.
If that was true, Biden would have released the files.
Not necessarily, Dem Politicians are by and large brainrotted by shit like "Institutional Trust," "Procedures," "Norms," and "Civility."
They'd all rather sit back and "Let the Justice Department do their jobs," telling us to "Trust the process," because that's "What's always been done." It was only after that process broke down and Trump was very clearly trying to quash anything Epstein related that Normie Dem Politicians started really talking about releasing the files. Had he not, the most we'd have gotten was calls for the DoJ to reopen the investigation.
Why do you think Biden's DoJ didn't do their jobs then?
Any number of reasons ranging from the Evil and Cynical "Because all of them are trying to protect the traffickers," to the Pedestrian and Banal "Because once you believe that the institutions do their jobs competently it's easy to think that any time they didn't is just because there wasn't any 'job to do' so to speak."
Well we know there was a job to do given how many times Trump has shown up.
Yeah, the idea would be that people who hadn't looked at the files (Incompetent) trusted that the reason the people who had (Corrupt) hadn't charged anyone was because there wasn't anything to charge them with. Because their Precious Institutions are Generally Good and don't make mistakes like this.
So the lower level people in Biden's DoJ were covering up for pedophiles, and the leadership appointed by Biden didn't know?
Did Trump appoint all the DoJ rank-and-file?
In what fucking world? Okay so you're a total fucking clown operating in complete bad faith, got it. Enjoy continuing this conversation with the void, I'm just blocking you lmao
I am trying to understand the model that libs are running on where Biden's DoJ protected a pedophile ring that only included the political opposition. I can understand the rest of the dems believing that the DoJ didn't have anything, and sure, I could imagine leadership being so incompetent they didn't look themselves, but someone at some point read the shit we are seeing and decided to act like there was nothing there.
Somehow Biden covered this all up and hes a master genius while popping blood vessels in his eye and saying we'll defeat medicare, and its fine to cover up pedophiles in the vague hope it brings Trump down in 5 years.
It's magic levels of thinking from libs.
It doesn't require Biden himself do anything.
I think its as simple as people within the admin who knew it would damage their own party too advising against doing a real investigation, DoJ has limited resources, etc.
I mean they didn't stop Trump on purpose, so it makes sense.
Democrats are too polite to rock the boat.
