Clinton flew on Epstein's plane or whatever.

Trump bragged about being best friends with Epstein and the kind of girls that Epstein always had around.

The hypocritical double standard of MAGA voters couldn't be more blatant if it was intentional.

Clinton should absolutely be investigated and the book thrown at him if he's guilty, though. Same as Trump.

Yeah, but Trump has basically confessed already and his voters give him a free pass while Clinton has an association that should be looked into. They are not even close to the same thing, but maga voters are treating it as the opposite of reality where they don't care about Trump confessing.

It is intentional. Saying "Nuh uh! You!" Prevents any actual discussion about their own actions because people get distracted and baited into a defensive stance. It's pretty silly that a toddler's defense is an effective federal political strategy.

Every modern Republican strategy is disingenuous and immature. They personify a narcissistic abusive spouse to a T. Gaslight, lie, project, ignore inconvenient facts, distract, obstruct, and blame.

It is intentional. It's always projection to poison the well.
