For those asking why Trump had to play 5D chess with Epstein:

The Dems/MSM spent the last decade claiming Epstein was a conspiracy theory. They just blocked it out and ignored it.

The only way we could get them to care about this, was to dangle the Trump carrot in their face, and it worked brilliantly.

Could you imagine if in Trump’s first term he released all this stuff about Epstein? The public would not have believed it, and the Dems/MSM would have claimed it was all politically motivated and fabricated by Trump.

The only way this Epstein disclosure was going to work, was to get the public to beg for it. So that’s what Trump did.
