Please don't allow Trump to change the narrative. Epstein/Acosta needs to stay on the front page.
I watched Trump backers claim that Trump was just a casual acquaintance of Epstein and screamed at the TV for the stupid news anchor to ask 1 simple question, what is casual about giving Epstein 14 phone numbers that he can put in his little black book that he can reach Trump at?
House Democrats, don't wait, please subpoena Acosta. He has a hell of a lot of questions that he needs to answer. Why did he meet with Epstein's defense attorneys in a hotel room for starters?
Democrats don't let this travesty die after 24 hours. Push Republicans, push Trump to defend a pedophile protector. Acosta has zero business being allowed to hold any position in government. More victims are coming forward, Dems please, raise your voices, Acosta must resign or be fired. Acosta must resign or be fired.

haven't heard much about the recent story posted about Trump and Epstein partying and inviting a bunch of girls . now just imagine if it was Bill Clinton and epstein who had done that. it would be BREAKING NEWS on every channel and nothing else being discussed.

(7,142 posts)Why doesn't one of our nominees take the bull by the horns and go after Acosta? Hey, how about Kirsten Gillebrand. I know she has come out against Epstein/Acosta but can't she do more? I bet she can.

(32,777 posts)So far US Attorney Berman seems to be doing a pretty good job, and Barr hasn't tried to quash it - yet. Besides that, some really good investigative journalists are following this story in New York and Miami.
This story has legs. Epstein is such a mystery man, nobody knows how he makes his money. There has to be a major tax fraud case hiding, if nothing else.

(19,118 posts)The news coming out that Jeff Epstein and Trump had a party where they were the only guests and Donald flew in 28 girls for their "entertainment" makes this scandal firmly a Trump-Epstein scandal.
Trump and Epstein more than just knew each other, they were best friends.

(32,777 posts)Even in the unlikely event they have the names of the women involved, I don't believe any of them were underage. During the campaign, Michael Cohen spent a lot of his time getting Chump's female victims to sign NDAs and giving out hush money.
However I wouldn't imagine the Epstein himself ever signed Chump's NDA or took hush money, so how much is he willing to spill? That's the question.

(19,118 posts)You are putting together an event like this and you only invite 1 other guy, that means that the other guy had to be very close to you.
I suspect that Epstein and Trump were two peas in a pod for decades and we're going to continue to hear about the hundreds of times they've hung out. These two men were extremely close.
