@midtsveen@social.linux.pizza I think for us non-Americans, it was easy to dismiss it as just crazy over the top America again. We got the headlines, but didn't know just how much push back and keeping him on the rails there was behind the scenes, from other politicians and institutions. Though I don't think most Americans did either, since they voted again. But... it isn't actually even Donald Trump. He's not the leader, but just a useful idiot. He was brought in to be the figurehead of MAGA. The branding. The celebrity that different groups would follow. If he goes, it doesn't just end. Epstein was a MAGA leader, and he didn't want Trump as the figurehead. It's why they can't release the files, because it exposes the whole thing.
