    The right wants what’s best for their own party and will only complain about something if it hurts their image. The left wants what’s best for everyone, even if it hurts their party.

    The DNC and RNC, though, are basically the same right-leaning party and don’t give a shit about their constituents. Which is why we’re in this mess in America in the first place. The DNC won’t stand up for what’s right when the RNC pulls a BS move because it hurts their own political gains too. We don’t actually have a left party in America, so most American ideals are completely unrepresented.

    That’s why the DNC is fighting against Zohran Mamdani in the New York mayoral election. He’s an actual left candidate, not the centrist-right figurehead they wanted on the Democrat ticket (Andrew Cuomo). So when Cuomo lost the primary for that Democrat ticket, he chose to continue running as an independent, to split the vote and ruin Mamdani’s chance of winning. Because the DNC would rather have a Republican in office than an actual left candidate.

    Which is why we say, “RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!” There are going to be Democrats AND Republicans on the list. We don’t care. Punish them all. Actually drain the swamp. We have no party loyalty because we don’t have an honorable party to represent us.

      And they’ll use this. The same way they used it against Al Franken, who did nothing wrong.

      By the time they release the files, it’ll have exactly the names they want it to have. It’ll be up to forensic teams to try to find the changes and the truth within those files.

      The funny thing is that Cuomo and Adams are probably siphoning more votes from Sliwa than from Mamdani. Hell, almost 1/4 of Fox News watchers are planning on voting for Mamdani. Decent chance he gets an outright majority.
