Should at least prove he's guilty of partaking in the court of public opinion. That's not good enough for the victims, but it's something.
He's a convicted rapist and this is always his go to method. How hard can that be to figure out even for MAGA idiots?
Also in the court of public opinion, if it comes out that Trump and Republicans are cleared in the Epstein scandal investigation, but not Democrats, it's going to be as believable as OJ Simpson vowing to find "the real killer."

(8,366 posts)Considering there was a slew of other wealthy chaps abusing young girls via Epstein and probably Trump, I could see one or more of them considering Trump to be a liability. We can all see how his brain is failing fast. If he knew your darkest secrets, wouldn't you want to make sure he was silent? Bet some powerful chaps are mulling options.
