Epstein Arrest Is a Worry for Donald Trump
Yahoo News ^ | 8 July 2019 | Timothy L. O'Brien

Posted on 07/08/2019 7:29:04 AM PDT by Magnatron

Way down the article, the author squeezes this in:

Brown’s stories took note of the extensive network of political, business and legal allies assembled by Epstein over the years and questioned the extent to which that network may have protected him or helped cushion his fall. It included: A former president, Bill Clinton; the U.K.’s Prince Andrew; powerhouse attorneys such as Alan Dershowitz, Kenneth Starr, and Roy Black; and business contacts such as Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late publishing tycoon Robert Maxwell, and Leslie Wexner, the owner of retailer Victoria’s Secret. Several years ago, Gawker published a copy of Epstein’s address book and it was packed with marquee names from Hollywood, Wall Street and Washington.

Trump’s name was among them, too.

Seeing the president’s name mixed in with dozens, if not hundreds, of other well-known personalities is hardly unusual. He has had a certain form of celebrity for a very long time. But for a while Trump was more than just a casual acquaintance of Epstein.

-SNIP-

There’s a strong likelihood that Epstein will end up trying to flip for prosecutors as the reality of a lengthy prison sentence approaches, but it’s unclear how much he has that would be interesting to the feds. If he has anything sordid or compromising that he’s willing to trade about Trump, however, the president could be in for an uncomfortable summer. The public may be interested in that kind of stuff even if prosecutors aren’t.

* YES: Trump took a plane ride (a long time ago) on an Epstein-owned jet - NOT the B727 "Lolita Express" but another Epstein fleet jet, and NO it did NOT go to Pedo Island.

* YES: There is a photo of a very young Ivanka on her Dad's lap with Epstein PhotoShopped standing next to them "proving" Trump is a pedophile. These people are SICK!

YES: Yahoo is a pile of stinking garbage.

Funny the article mentions Trump took a flight with him but never mentioned The Clintons on flights.

This is about smearing President Trump no one else. From the article:

“During the 2016 presidential campaign, an unidentified young woman filed a suit against Trump in which she alleged that he raped her when she was 13 at a party at Epstein’s Upper East Side townhouse in Manhattan. Trump denied the claims and the woman later dropped the suit because, her lawyer said, she was intimidated by death threats. The Trump camp described her allegations as “untrue.”

” The public may be interested in that kind of stuff even if prosecutors aren’t.”

Wishful thinking. Just watched a video of a lawyer who has been representing victims for the last 10-15 years state that Trump was the only celebrity willing to voluntarily help him gather the facts and speak to him at length.

We all knew this would be the new false narrative rolled out this morning.

The entire story is fishy.

Color me skeptical. First, let's be clear: I'm absolutely ecstatic at this development that put Epstein in the same jail as Mexican drug kingpin El Chapo. But why is the corruption prosecution unit, the same one going after Trump's finances, doing the prosecution, instead of the more logical, more specialized human trafficking unit, the one who could create a far tighter case against Epstein?

ANSWER: Because they are looking to create criminal ties, both financial and personal, between Epstein and Trump. This will allow the narrative to continue through 2020.

And since Comey's daughter is heading the Epstein prosecution, the connection can only tighten. Finally, since this is in New York, look for the prosecution to ignore any obvious Clinton "Lolita Express" connection to protect BOTH Bill and Hillary from other investigation.

Yes, this SUCKS. And make no mistake, Epstein will most probably never get out of prison for the rest of his life (the #MeToo aspect wont stand for that). But what the federal and state corrections department is work a deal in which Epstein may not have to serve in a Gen Pop, No Lube Maximum Security facility, IN EXCHANGE for damaging Trump testimony.

Sucks, but that's the lay of the land.

It’s beginning to look as if Epstein’s wealth, connections and proclivities have been used in an intelligence capacity to gather damaging, controlling information about political and entertainment figures for decades, and that the intelligence was domestic. Between the household names apparently involved, the abuse of the intelligence apparatus and revelation to the voting public to just what end all this documented compromising has been used is likely going to astound, if it ever sees the light of day.

They’re going to try to tar Trump with this even though it seems evident that their honeypot operation never did compromise him. A whole lot of guilt by tenuous association is going to reach a fever pitch very shortly. This needs to come out, come what may. Whether it will or not will be determined in the coming weeks and months. Going to be a crazy time, whether the public is ever apprised of this or not.

This is being orchestrated ...as usual.

This is how I determined Americans live in a. quasi-soviet style media/propoganda environment - when all major corporate news outlets all launch the exact same story, with the same narrative, at the same time. Its amazing to watch.

I doubt anyone knows as much about this case as Bradley Edwards. He has interviewed more people and seen more evidence than probably anyone. He certainly doesn’t believe Trump did anything wrong.

Libs need to turn their focus back to Russian collusion because they have nothing here.

Prosecutors and the Democratic Media Complex are in a Catch-22.

They want to take Trump out BUT to try to do so will mean exposing many other rich, powerful, and connected men.

They can attempt surgical precision and try to ONLY expose Trumps' alleged connections but that seems like an impossible task.

There's a difference between showing a photo of Trump with Epstein at a cocktail party and listing the names of people who took multiple trips to Epsteins' New York, Florida, and Caribbean sexcapades.

But it would be interesting to legit law enforcement.

Was Comey (daughter) at the prosecutor’s table this morning?
Is she part of the assembly for the presser going right now?

Fake news?

If any of the 2020 presidential candidates have any issues even remotely related to pedophilia, the logical suspect would of course be creepy, crazy, good old, uncle Joe, Biden...

Despite there being no ‘there’ ‘there’, just the fact that epsteam had PDJT’s number in his book will give the ‘lames’ weeks of lies and conjecture to pump out making the haters panties wet.

Even the left-wing media shares these concerns about creepy, crazy, Joe Biden

This below is from the far left commondreams.org...

“At a town hall hosted by the American Federation of Teachers in Houston, [Joe] Biden responded to a 10-year-old girl’s question with the comment, "I’ll bet you’re as bright as you are good-looking" before holding her by the shoulders and leading her over to the press to introduce her to reporters.”

This was a stupid article, and it will backfire. In 2009, DJT was the only person willing to cooperate.

Whoever wrote this is poking the wrong bear.
