You sound like Ken Langone just this morning. He issued an apology for doubting Trumps goals and policies. He said based on results that Trump is something of a miracle after trashing him for years. He urged patience, restraint, and to ignore the media messaging, and to only measure the facts.
Had to look him up to remember who he was.
The problem is that most people don't really want to put in the work to understand even moderately complex issues. It's not that they couldn't understand it if they really tried. They just...don't. They get lazy, don't verify the stuff they read, and tend to adopt opinions and arguments that line up with their own preconceptions while ignoring any facts to the contrary.
There are a lot of issues all tied up with Epstein. I've had personal experience with efforts to protect identities and details of sexual assault victims, and it makes investigations much harder. Everybody wants transparency but there are all sorts of things that complicate that, and too many people just don't want to take the time to understand that.
So, we get massive sh*tshows like this one.
