If Trump was NOT in the Epstein files would he have already released them?

Thoughts?

PS: I'm of the opinion that he would have released them and then SOLD merchandise saying he wasn't in the files (thus enriching himself even more from being a high profile politician).
 
Or, in other words...



 
It would be highly unethical and maybe even illegal to release the files with names in it. Then again that has never bothered Trump before so there must be another reason.

I would say perhaps he could be running cover for some rich friends but Trump doesn't have friends other than Xi, Putin, and Un. Well, he thinks they are friends, they know him as the "useful idiot".

If he was taking a beating in the press and his own party was starting to fracture (along with QAnon screaming at him) and he wasn't in the files would he have already released them (with redacted names and sworn affidavits saying he wasn't in them)?

Meh, his party showed cracks when this first came out but most of them are back in line. He's back in the 80-90s with Republicans.
 
Given he is signalling that he is ready to go war with GOP congress critters over it, he is definitely hiding something.
 
Something not being talked about: the danger trump will DESTROY the files. A couple analogies - the danger Nixon could have destroyed the tapes which proved his guilt, the destruction of the CIA torture tapes which did allow them to escape accountability. The CIA was under court order not to destroy them; they did anyway, and 'what are you going to do about it?'

trump would CLEARLY do that if they are in danger (to him) of coming out, and in Pam Bondi and other officials he clearly has minions who would do it.
