Only the most deluded and those with their heads in the sand didn't think they would. Know your enemy. Apparently, a lot of people really don't. They still expect some fairness.
I dont blame Acosta at all. He provided a comprehensive defense of his actions at his press conference. Now the Reps need to start linking the Dems and MSM to Epstein starting with Clinton, Schumer, and Stephy.
Acosta answered the questions about the Epstein case at his confirmation hearings. He has done a good job as Labor Secretary. No doubt, his resignation letter will say he is resigning so as not to create a distraction for the President. Acosta is not corrupt. He used his best judgment along with his career colleagues on how best to proceed. It is worth remembering that the Florida state grand jury came back with only one count against Epstein who had the best legal team money can buy.
Epstein has pleaded not guilty to the charges in NY. It remains to be seen what the outcome will be. It is curious why this new case is being brought up now and what is the real objective. Is it just another indirect attack on Trump or a way to remove the Clintons once and for all from control and influence within the Dem party. What luminaries will be implicated? I am not a conspiracy nut, but I dont believe this all came about due to a Miami journalist. Acosta is the fall guy.
