There is a world of room between “good” and “ran a child sex trafficking ring”. Clinton may be a POS for many reasons and he may have visited Epstine island and maybe even raped children (we don’t know at this point but anyone in the flight logs is sus). That is all absolutely terrible but it’s still very different than kidnapping 10’s or hundreds of children to rape and pimp. And the files seem to indicate that Trump was actively involved in this scheme for decades.

maybe even raped children

but

I swear, it's impossible to parody lesser-evilists because you're all self-parodies at this point.

Seems to me that once you reach raping children stages there's no need to split hairs further.

Fair. I do think scale is sometime important. A single murder is not a genocide. But I can see your POV.

Regardless, Clinton is awful but IDK what he did on the island. If he did rape kids then I hope they throw his ass in jail.

I want a worse fate for him if so, however, I don't want it to be a distraction from the existing Pedo in Chief and their ilk.

There’s no evidence he did anything inappropriate with kids.

Trump, however, has been accused by multiple Epstein victims.

"There's no evidence this longtime Epstein associate who flew multiple times on a plane called the Lolita Express did anything inappropriate with kids"

[–] quarkquasar@lemmy.world 1 points 5 minutes ago

Well?

You're implying that there is.

So where is it? You're setting expectations extremely high for yourself.

Gonna need that evidence.

Correct. Epstein had connections to his charities. Was for humanitarian work.

You think Trump released the files with more evidence of him fucking kids than Clinton if there was any other option?

Yeah man the president of the united states totally needed the funding and connections of a known pedophile in order to do some vague, nondescript "social work".

[–] auraithx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 hours ago

He didn’t need to, but he was not a known pedophile, and the travel was tied publicly tied to Clinton foundation work like the 2002 Africa trip for HIV/AIDS.

Again, you think Trump hid evidence of Clinton’s wrongdoings but published damning things on himself?
