Two impeachments didn’t do it. A phony Russian hoax didn’t do it. A dubious election loss didn’t do it. Relentlessly negative coverage didn’t do it. Civil and criminal judgments and massive fines didn’t do it. Two assassination attempts didn’t do it.
Maybe Jeffrey Epstein’s ghost will finally bring Donald Trump down. That seems to be the hope, anyway.
Epstein, who hobnobbed with the rich and famous, had been under investigation since 2005 for sex trafficking and pedophilia, and died in prison six years ago, has been responsible for conspiracy theories for years.

I agree. The left will grasp on to anything negative to try to take control and get false narratives back in their control. They are desperate.
The Dems had many years, under Obama and Biden, to publish the Epstein files, they seem to be burying that fact.

The Epstein story has nothing to do with Trump, although the Democrats want another hoax to make it so. Epstein is about corruption of the government, individuals, and no, we don't want to see pornographic videos, and know the names of any victims. We would like some basic questions answered: Where did all the money come from? How is it that the IRS never audited Epstein, despite all these foreign transactions, and billions of dollars, while a small business owner making over $200K would have been?

From Russia collusion to ‘Judge’ Boesberg EVERYTHING the Left has been doing has that singular purpose- Get Trump. No doubts or disputes on that.

Its not about getting Trump. Its about muddying the water with so much phoney, obviously manufactured evidence that the guilty are never punished. Mission accomplished.

I want the Epstein client list released. However I will not abandon Trump or de-maga if it is not.
This is desperation on the part of the left grasping at anything and everything since their usual lies no longer work and their deep state control is being dismantled.

I couldn't agree more. Even here some residual anti-Trumpers and/or trolls let that show from time to time.

For the media, the story has become secondary. It's anything to tear down and destroy Trump. No doubt they are coordinating with the Democrats in government.
Our government (and the media) have been actively trying to destroy Trump for over a decade. It started during the Obama administration. So many things go back to Obama. This is one of them. Our government is all about power, corruption, and politics. It doesn't really govern. It's a tyranny. The Democrats and the media are the main culprits, but where are the Republican 'leaders'. For starters, where are the Bushes? Where are the rest of the Republicans in government? They are either silent or quietly supporting the tyrants. Our government is a sick joke.

Between Trump and Tulsi, Obama is sweating, but the old tricks won't work.

I think if Trump had anything at all to worry about, it would have disappeared by now. Trump could, however, make a few Democrats sweat by "finding" proof that certain Senators were seen at Epstein Parties. Sure, the Democrats will swear they were not there, but why believe them when some Smart AI Kid managed to put them there! You better be careful what you wish for!

The Democrats are using it because no names are being used, put some Democrat names out there and they will shut up soon enough.

Absolutely correct. TDS nuts pushing this are so focused on getting Orange Man Bad they haven't even considered that is there really were "written lists" of perverts and "thousands" of Epstein little child victims (neither of which I believe), there would be the names of their most precious progressives such as Bill Clinton and Bill Gates. I want to know more about the clearly documented plot to destroy Pres. Trump. This is the Look, a squirrel" move by the Dems to get the focus on another nothin-burger so the real stuff is ignored.

The folks that hate hime will grasp at anything to bring him down. They don't care whether it would be a Pyrrhic victory.

I would think there are a lot Democrats shaking in their boots. Anyway, why would President Trump need to hang out on Epstein's Island to find women when he owned the Miss America pageant?
