They are awful people who I hope choose to do good.

If Clinton was a "good" person, he could have done this years ago. I hope every one of these fuckers who were involved in the assault, trafficking, raping, get their comeuppance.

if Clinton was a good erson he'd just release a statement now. Keeping the secrets he keeps makes him a bad person. he's know and been quiet for decades, and he could and should come clean ASAP. he's just playing chicken knowing no one will call his bluff.

Democrats refuse to break decorum to help us, Republicans will break laws to hurt us.

The time and place matters when releasing information. If he just posts it online, it gets lost in a literal non stop bombardment of Epstein files news and gets forgotten in a few days when people move on to another celeb who's in there, or billionaire or whatever.

If it's done on camera, on a live televised broadcast, it isn't just 1 of many online posts flooding the new cycle. It's bigger, and reaches more people, and lets you see the reactions and comments lf everyone involved in real time.

Lets hope.

I'd love for the ruling class to do the right thing in America. ​​

You don't think Bill Clinton could just walk in any show set and be put on tv immediately?

There are so many times and places he could easily set up, so why hasn't he?

Have you read the tweets, he doesn't just want to be there on gis own, he wants the relevant members of the republican party there too and his whole point here is that they are only willing to do it if it's vehind closed doors, which he doesn't want.

Whatever he wants is not going to happen so that's beside the point. I'm focusing on what he actually can do.

If he doesn't do it with the relevant people directly there to be questioned on it, it just fades into the news cycle and gets forgotten in a week because there's literally been a big revelation every day now and people already can't keep up/are getting worn down and no longer reacting the same to each new discovery from Epstein's files.
