Oh, come on, you're seriously trying to spin this as Trump being some heroic whistleblower? ๐
The Palm Beach cops had been digging into Epstein for OVER A YEAR by then victim statements, house raids, the whole nine yards.
They were already gearing up for serious charges in May 2006.
But Trump? Crickets. No call, no tip, nothing while the abuse was still happening right under everyone's noses including his, since he admits "everyone has known for years."
Only AFTER the grand jury slaps Epstein with that weak-ass indictment and the story blows up in the papers does he suddenly ring up the chief to play the good guy: "Thank goodness you're stopping him" and throw Maxwell under the bus.
That's not blowing the whistle that's scrambling to distance yourself the second the shit hits the fan and your name might get linked.
Pure damage control from a guy who'd been partying with Epstein, flying on his jet, and calling him "terrific" just a few years earlier.
If he was so "one of the very first," why wait until the cops were basically done? Spare us the MAGA fanfic. This just screams "I knew but did jack shit until it was public."
Weak.
