    It would be so interesting if he just started giving everyone up. What will the powers that be do this time? Epstein was no ex-president.

      Everyone who? He’s the big fish the others are flipping on to get deals. There’s nobody higher up the chain to flip on.

        You really think Trump is the top of any chain? The bigger fish of this ocean? Have you heard him give a speech? Dude is clearly a puppet for hire. Most likely several masters over his lifetime. Including Putin.

        Smart powerful people stay in the shadows. Some do come out but that’s just nascissism for you.

          Not sure what Trump could have on Putin that would interest the DOJ. And even if he wanted to, his ego is so massive and fragile at the same time he could never admit that he was someone else’s puppet. He always has to be one in charge.

          This is different from his past problems where he could throw an lowly employee under the bus and claim he didn’t know about the illegal shit they were doing.

          I’m not sure what there is to gain by him claiming that “the Koch Bros” put him up to it out sometime like that.
