Nah... I think a whole lot of his friends are gonna get caught up in it. I think that's why he's slow-walking it. You gotta remember he was in that high profile DC and Hollywood party scene for a long time (as a democrat too)... I don't think that has much to do with party affiliation.
Note: 'Party scene' is not meant in the pedophile aspect, but rather, in the broader sense.
I see the left using every crumb of innuendo they can to attack the President. If he has a friend named Ichabod, and in the files it mentions that Ichabod was NOT invited to 47 different parties, the Left will go to the microphones and cameras with "Trump close associate mentioned 47 times in Epstein Files". No context, "guilt" by association, even though the mention was one of not associating with Ichabod, nor Ichabod associating with Epstein.
Granted, a slow walk is not what we want or wanted, but it helps people who did nothing to stay out of the media shooting gallery. I could not care less about the guilty--peel back that rock.
I find it interesting that he is using, by accident or design, Cloward-Piven against the very hostile media which tried to use it against him. It is as if they don't know which thing to protest to put above the fold. For now, it is Iran.
