3. I totally disagree and think Epstein is the distraction from the wholesale destruction of our Democracy

and fascist takeover currently underway.

Nothing is going to happen to Trump over Epstein other than it may sully his already terrible reputation as a p-grabbing, 20+ times accused, dressing-room-invading, adjudicated sex offender. He controls the files/information, the Congress, the DoJ, and the vast majority of the Media. His cultists will simply declare any evidence Trump was involved as Deep State Fake News, produced by "Haters of Dear Leader". The media will immediately (and on command) focus on "who leaked the info", like they always do when whistleblowers expose the GOP for acting in horrible and illegal ways.

He also knows that despite 20 years passing, not one Epstein victim has accused him of wrongdoing except for one extremely sketchy lawsuit that was withdrawn before going to court. He also knows that the Biden DoJ had the files for 4 years, and they prosecuted Maxwell, and Maxwell only, never let on in any way that they had anything on IQ45.

FFS, the guy got away scot-free with instigating an armed insurrection against the USA, and even got re-elected afterwards, and then pardoned all the insurrectionists. There is literally NO avenue or scenario in which his position is seriously endangered re: Epstein no matter what he did. I think Trump is perfectly happy for us to be distracted by Epstein speculation while he destroys the United States of America, to the delight of our enemies.

MHO fwiw.
