    Just as planned, the more he tries to change the subject we should rename the Epstein files to Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein Center for the Performing of minor abuse

      No sorry, it’s got to be

      The Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein Center For the Abuse of Minors.

      There’s nothing minor about the abuse

        Thanks. I read that and it sounded weird. My dyslexia was having a problem with it.

        I like to say “they found Epstein in the Trump files!”

        Dude is so heavily connected now that it’s basically about him and the other living pedophiles.

    Just remember that correlation is not causation. Yes, such things distract from the Epstein case and that’s a welcome effect for the US dictator. But he’s not thinking “hmm I really would like to have a distraction from that so that’s why I’ll just commit another war crime or atrocity so they’ll all be distracted”. He commits new atrocities anyway, and it just so happens that new atrocities automatically distract from older ones. He is causing way more problems than we are capable of mentally tracking.
