    I’m sure some of them will believe whatever the narrative is, but some of them have been on this train since the early QAnon days. They’ve been promised arrests, public executions, and a, “great awakening,” where their conspiracy theories about the deep-state pedophile cabal is exposed and their children call them and apologize for uninviting them to Thanksgiving. Trump created a very big fracture with those people a few weeks ago when he told them to shut up and stop talking about Epstien, and his damage control has been very poor. Maybe he can get ahold of the narrative again, but he’ll need to do more than have a human trafficker say he did nothing wrong.
