Reading some of the Maxwell posts here, I want to ask a serious question [View all]

We know that 25 % of Trump supporters will literally believe every lie told to them by Trump and his administration. However, many people here are saying Maxwell will only name Democrats as being participants in the Epstein sex ring and that will be just be accepted. One person even said we'll "lose the mid-terms."

I'm sorry, but I find that very hard to believe. It's illogical. If Trump's administration does the investigation in that manner, it would be ridiculously partisan and I think people will see right through it.

I think it's more likely Maxwell will incriminate mostly Bill Clinton so it will be see: "bothsides" do it, aka take the heat off Trump. Anything with the name Clinton in it will have the bonus of being red meat to the GOP.

Thoughts?
