10 wild Donald Trump moments as he jets to Scotland and away from Epstein row
Anyone who has studied, or even half watched a movie about American politics understands one simple rule.
It’s not the crime that gets you, it’s the cover up. The multiple mentions of Donald Trump’s name in the Epstein files don’t insinuate any guilt or knowledge of Epstein’s crimes. They may be entirely innocent, or hearsay.
But last week, when he was asked if his name was in the files, Trump unequivocally said “no.” That was a lie. And whatever is in the files, those around him have gone to extreme lengths to prevent their release, and to encourage the American people and media to talk about something – ANYTHING – else.
All of which amounts to a determined effort by the White House and senior government figures to cover up the details of Trump’s relationship with America’s most notorious and prolific paedophile and sex trafficker.
And it may be nothing, but whatever it is or is not – they’d apparently rather drag out the row in public for weeks on end than reveal what’s in the files. And in the middle of all this, Trump is on his way to Scotland for his first UK visit since returning to the White House. He’ll be hoping for a bit of peace and quiet after the last few weeks….but we expect some protesters will have other ideas.
1. Trump tried to do a Zelensky on the Fed chairman and it didn’t quite land
2. Even Trump’s most loyal backers are starting to talk about impeachment
3. Trump is still insisting it’s a “SCAM”
4. He’s apparently seen the South Park episode, and is “seething” about it
5. Epstein really didn’t want to talk about Trump during his deposition
