I'm not sure about why MAGA has their panties in a twist concerning the Epstein files. I'm sure they think prominent Democrats are involved, but who and how they're listed is a mystery to me. Please help a confused old lady and loyal DU member.

1. tldr: the connections are mostly meaningless but they do exist

Both Epstein and Maxwell were socialites and attended various galas so it's not unusual to see them. The whole idea was to bring powerful people into their sphere so, it's not really surprising that powerful people were in their sphere...

The question is which ones took the bait, and why weren't they brought to justice?

2. I believe

they think Bill Clinton is in the files. He very well could be, but they can't seem to believe Rtump probably is too.

5. It has been reported that Clinton always had his Secret Service detail with him on the 4 trips in relation to

his foundation. He was never legitimately accused of wrongdoing.

Am I missing something?

3. It's not that there's a prominent Democrat on the list, They're trying to use the threat of one on the list ...

... to keep Democrats for wanting to expose the Republicans on that list , like TACO, Matty Gaetz, Roger Stone, Rudy, etc.

4. They think Clinton is strongly implicated so that;s what they want to see.

Of course the loons don't recognize that dimwit played the starring role as sidekick and fellow rapist.
