I think it partially originates from a continuing (and less and less grounded) idea that “if only Trump voters see this one meme/troll, they’ll realize how foolish they’ve been!” I feel like we wore this concept out before the 2024 election, but it’s really a dead horse now.
She was dragged from the hospital so they could put her behind bars only to realize she was still bleeding from the gunshot wounds and had to take her back to the hospital! it can’t be that hard to figure out who the criminals are and yet …

But counterpoint: maybe we should expect people with Elon's level of clout and reach to "tell someone" about an island for sex trafficking. We get what we expect of people for their station. If this is too much for Elon, he should recede and certainly deserves to be critized for his omission.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)
