They said this was going to create a rift among chuds. I was told I was being a bad leftist for not giving them the benefit of the doubt and seeing their humanity.

I agree generally but I've seen libs defend Clinton.

The closest I've ever seen to Libs defending Clinton was arguing that Hillary isn't in any way culpable in his alleged crime, ignoring the fact she almost definitely knew and remains married to him to this day.

That and just ignoring the it.

Yeah, true, that was common in 2015-2016.

Sure there's gotta be some, as there are toxic Democrats as well, but nowhere near enough (or at least not widespread enough) to parallel chuds and make such generalization.

Maybe not as many, but I honestly think that's just because they're focusing on Trump instead. I have a feeling if Trump was not part of Epstein's circle that they would also just try to disregard the entire thing altogether to defend their party.

Why do I say this? Because Epstein is not new and I've been talking about Epstein and Clinton since at least 2009 and I had libs defend Clinton or just dismiss it as conspiracy theory. Now libs still don't really mention Clinton but they do mention Trump, not very different from chuds criticizing Dems. And, anyway, it depends what you mean by Democrats because if we're talking Party Elites then they're all implicated "toxic" Democrats in this one who would rather go down covering this whole thing up. Biden had years to expose this, and even Obama could've released files they had on Epstein at the time, but unsurprisingly little to nothing was ever done.
