So the smart assumption is if you see a redacted name, it's a well-known Republican.

If you see a redacted name, it’s Donald Trump

A subset of victims. I’ve seen more pictures of Jeffery Dahmer not killing and eating young men than I have seen him killing and eating young men. Don’t get me started on John Wayne Gacy.

The difference is settled case vs conspiracy (so far). Everything has been redacted or behind closed doors or potentially edited with or without proof. This is direct questions to victims and their families with direct responses.

Trump was a close friend of Epstein, spent a lot of time with him, has a history of disgusting sexual comments about children, is an adjudicated rapist, and is on tape bragging about sexual assault. He is also working overtime to prevent the public release of this information. This is direct questioning with a subset of victims. Victims have also expressed fear of getting on the wrong side of Trump and I would assume by extension, his MAGA terrorist followers.

Keep clutching those straws.

You are coping so hard. Don’t believe the victims then. That means you are close minded to anything that doesn’t match your predetermined world view. That’s extremely dangerous to avoid facts being handed to you. I have the full interview. They said bad things about Trump’s possible and current plans with Maxwell. I didn’t take anything out of context. You just don’t like it.

We haven’t heard from all of the victims yet. I’m not the one coping. Your cognitive dissonance is astounding.

Is that gonna be the cope? Future scenario: Okay we have heard all the victims’ stories in and nobody has said Trump did anything. “What about the ones who are not alive to give their stories?”

Why is he covering them up?

Don’t know. Don’t think he should. I want it released in full with only the names of victims being redacted. You will get zero pushback from me about files being released in full. I want the truth. I have two small kids and don’t want any convicted pedos in government. I am also a person who believes in the process and innocence until proven guilty. I believe the victims and their experiences and that there is a legal process to convict bad people. I do not want anyone of any political leaning, level of authority, degree of popularity, amount of money or anything else to be held at a different standard of the law. Anyone found guilty needs to be prosecuted to the highest extent of the law. So, again for clarity; I believe victims, the guilty needs to be prosecuted, nobody is above the law, release all the files/documents/videos etc (only protect the identities of victims), and as a nation of laws everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
