A new poll shows 47% of Republican voters would still support Donald Trump for president, even if evidence proved he personally helped Jeffrey Epstein pick out curtains for the “island guest house.”
Respondents described the hypothetical crimes as “unfortunate” but “less important than gas prices.” One voter explained, “I’m not saying child trafficking is good, I’m just saying Joe Biden is worse.”
Political scientists warn the finding reflects “apocalyptic levels of partisanship,” where morality is negotiable but party loyalty is eternal. Some analysts compared it to “cheering for the captain of the Titanic after watching him steer into the iceberg on purpose.”
The remaining 53% said they might change their vote, if Trump were caught on tape, in 4K, reading the indictment aloud while wearing an “I ♥ Epstein” T-shirt.
Trump’s campaign called the poll “fake news” and suggested Epstein “probably voted for Hillary.”
