Apparently they’re scrambling in the wild house, meeting with lauren bobert in the situation room etc.

I think it just has become far more likely that trump himself had Epstein killed…

    Honestly I still like Hillary for arranging Epstein’s “suicide.” She’s far more devious. Trump is dirty, but he’s fairly up-front about what he’s about. Honestly I don’t think he’s intelligent enough to pull it off. Someone from his camp? Far more likely than him himself. I’m not shifting blame if he gave the order. I’m saying the whole thing would have been outside his realm of comprehension. If it did come from his side — and I do not, for a second, believe that it absolutely did not — he wasn’t told and is still in the dark about it.

    But no. We’ve known Trump was a pervert and a predator for years. Anyway, all the emails really reveal is he messed around with some early-20s girls when he was in his 40s. Hardly children. Victims of sex trafficking sure, but not children.

    It’s a cult. His followers will condemn poor people for doing the same thing he’s done, even if they’re white and straight, but especially if they’re brown and/or LGBTQ+. And they’ll forgive his mistakes. I heard he pardoned a transgender person who helped him try to overthrow the government on January 6. His followers don’t care they’re transgender. Trump doesn’t, either, apparently. But he’ll take some other action against the LGBTQ+ community and they’ll support him for it.

    I will say that they made a great point, though. The White House, the Trump camp, I mean. They asked why we didn’t care about this so much when Biden was president. Solid point. No one thinks Biden is in the Epstein files. The answer is pretty obvious. They thought, after January 6 Trump is unelectable, just let him go away in peace. They’d rather let him get away with what he did rather than stain any of their colleagues. Only now that Trump is back in the White House are they trying to weaponise the Epstein files. They could have done this under Biden and they would have potentially won in 2024 but they didn’t.

      I’d say Trump literally making releasing the files part of his campaign then pulling back as soon as he was elected might play a part…
