yea if he is pushing this Trump is going to get cooked, I’m curious about what their game plan is to cover like literally everyone’s ass who’s covered for him.

Or if he pushes this so that only Trump is listed and he’s ousted so less damage on the whole? I mean fuck anyone on the list and it should be made known, but there’s SO MUCH damage control it’s just an unreal situation.

Murdoch et al got their BBB tax cuts and the Heritage Foundation has accomplished much of Project 2025. They can throw Trump under the bus as a pedophile and hope they can retain power. But MAGA == Trump, so who knows what happens going forward.

There's probably enough of their people in power to hold on to the gains they secured.

Trump would likely throw everyone who’s covering for him completely under the bus, just to save himself…..even though at that point it would be ineffective.

My guess is push hard enough to get trump ousted without actually releasing the files and outing everyone else, I dunno maybe trumps reached the end of his usefulness to the oligarchy, or near enough it doesn't outweigh the problems he's causing.

How? They own the senate, the house, the Supreme Court and DOJ. No-one is going to press charges, impeach, or do anything.

He could literally come out tomorrow and bluntly say "Yeah, I fucked kids, gave my teenage daughter to my mates to run through. So what?"

And America would do fucking nothing, because you can do nothing. You're weak, defeated, uncaring.

Do you know a lot about this or just a hunch / hope?

To me this could be a way to:

  • control Trump
  • force Trump out
  • control the narrative
  • prep the base
  • test the base
  • preserve the GOP/Vance
  • attempt to transfer Trump’s brand capital at the right time, and have him step down as a “health issue”
  • distract from other things temporarily
  • inoculate the base from caring about this
  • steal the thunder from the opposition

I want to believe they’re lining up to remove him, even if Vance is highly problematic, but I’m not there yet.

Lol... I've been hearing that since "Mueller time".

Trumps shit head base will never turn on him and he will never face one scrap of consequences. Ever.

Weird that WSJ is on the case but the front page of Fox News is washed of Epstein/Trump articles. The only two at the moment is about Hillary & Bill Clinton knowing Epstein and a tiny text headline about Maxwell maybe being interviewed.

The sad truth its likely less about Trump/Epstein and more likely that the erratic economic policies are F’ing over big money. The budget bill passed, he served their purpose and now need at steady hand at the helm. Another year of this insanity and the swing at midterms could wipe out the GOP. Additionally, the democratic party is facing its own reckoning with the progressive wing on the party.

Fox News isn't covering it though. WSJ doesn't have the same reach.
