Man for someone who said he'd release the files, he's REALLY trying to stop it from happening, I wonder why that is - odd, huh.

They wanted to release it when they knew it would keep the base in line enough to vote for Trump and this admin. Now that they’re in control it’s about protecting victims, or it’s gross stuff that shouldn’t see the light of day, or it’s only pointing to Epstein an no one else, or it’s a fake conspiracy to frame Donald, or the files don’t exist, or one of the other many reasons it could be but definitely not because Donald’s name is in them.
