Would you trust it at this point though? The most likely explanation in my mind is that both Dems and Republicans are on the list, including DT. Dems didn't release it prior to the election because it'd blow back on them as well, and Trump thought he could get away with running on releasing it and then never actually doing it - which has now backfired. This whole thing stinks
Trust what? I’m simply pointing out that we don’t know whether he’s actually done anything illegal or not. A lot of people seem convinced that he did - which they couldn’t possibly be certain of - or they’re hoping he did, which is a pretty awful thing to hope for when you actually stop and think about the implications. And then there are those who don’t even care whether he did anything or not, they just want him convicted anyway - which is equally insane.
Also, being “on the list” is not the same thing as being a child rapist. We don’t even know what this list really is or why certain people are on it. Anyone connected to Epstein in any capacity would dread having that list released, regardless of the reason they’re on it, because the result would be total destruction of their reputation.
imagine feeling the need to defend Trump lmao
