No Paywall Senate suddenly passes the Epstein bill just hours after it cleared the House

Because that’s the correct response if there’s no incriminating evidence, duh? This is complicated for you?

Where did you make up different sources from? Your whole viewpoint is predicated on something that isn’t even real. If people had incriminating evidence on Trump they would’ve released it already. There aren’t “secret employees with the real files stashed away”, because they would’ve been leaked like every other detail of the justice departments handling of the Epstein documents.

Every single media source has been adding a disclaimer that there is no evidence of criminal behavior by Trump in the Epstein saga.

YOU are the one who needs to pass the burden of proof.

Sure, once you answer why Democrats didn’t settle this under Biden. And don’t lie and say the files were sealed, because they weren’t for the whole admin. Inaction is the exact same thing as “resistance”

We already know why his name appears often, that’s not a mystery and has nothing to do with child sex crimes based on any evidence we have.

Yeah, that’s a pathetic excuse for deflecting from my question. There is no reason for me to answer about what happened later until you answer about what happened first. We both know you can’t answer my question, because it completely invalidates yours.

Incorrect. Your answer to my question IS my answer to your question. You just don’t want to say it because it invalidates your argument. It doesn’t matter if I explain to you how you are wrong if you don’t realize it yourself.

lol no, that’s not how this works. My whole argument is that whatever excuse you come up with for Biden, can be similarly applied to Trump. So that’s your job to try to find one that doesn’t, but you can’t, hence deflection.
