What he says and what he does is two DIFFERENT things.
He SAYS things to distract you from what he is DOING.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Who cares what time it is, I have a Rolex.

What happened to, "there aren't any epstein files, it was all a hoax by the radical left?"
It's not real but if it is then it's a hoax and if it's not a hoax it's okay to fuck kids.
Because they're older kids, it's not pedophilia, right? Just gotta think of a new angle!
15 is basically 16 is basically 17 and de facto 18. Wham bam, case closed.

Schröedinger's files!
Even better, just release them :3
He doesn't care?
Then tell us who bubba is!? Who'd you blow? Who's knob did you gobble? We're all dying to know, Mr. Doesn't Care.
Thought they didn't exist, Donny boy?
It's very simple...
He doesn't care if the files, which don't exist, get released, which he could do unilaterally, but he won't, since he doesn't care, because he's not in them, and they're a political hit job by the democrats, or they would be, if they were real, but they aren't.
Got it?
He's tried every other argument, now he's trying reverse psychology again

Demented old fool has forgotten he's in them
Nah. I'm sure he knows he's in them. He probably just thought he could tell one of his sycophants to remove or redact his name like they could just do a "find all" and delete. He probably thinks his name has been scrubbed.
They probably did that but it didn't match DONNI TEE which is how that email got released
Maybe the only part he was worried about getting out was him sucking a guy's dick
Unlikely
Why should he care if they prove he committed heinous crimes? Nothing is going to be done about it
Sucking a guy's dick isn't a crime, but sex with a minor sure is.
He has already been convicted of multiple other felonies and doesn’t serve time. Why should this be any different?
I don't know that it would be, but he sure seems to think so. I think him trying so desperately to cover it up for so long has made it more damaging than it would have been if he'd just owned it when his cult was clamoring for the files to be released. He'd downplay it with his usual word salad, news articles would be written about how terrible it was, and nothing of consequence would happen to him. Now, though? It's not just about the horrendous crimes, but his betrayal of his conspiracy theorist cult. Maybe it would still amount to nothing, but he hasn't done himself any favors by alienating his cultists.
I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me how Trump will face repercussions for these crimes when he hasn't for any other crimes. Who is going to prosecute him? What is the plan if the files prove he committed heinous crimes? Since he's clearly immune to all consequences of crimes, I think he's more concerned about people thinking he's gay
IF anything happens to him, it will be because he has eroded the trust of his conspiracy theorist cult by trying to cover up his pedophilia more than the pedophilia itself. A lot of his power is derived from his cult, which the Republicans are terrified of alienating. If he loses enough of their support, Republicans won't be so hell-bent on protecting him at all costs. It's a big "if."

Suuuure he doesn't care..
(That's why he's got Pam Bondi digging through them to find dirt on the Democrats.)
He's gotta act cool, no matter what..
I'm 100% sure there are democrats in the files. However, the fact that they haven't released any den names or tried to prosecute any sure is interesting.
Would be difficult to use the actual documents to pick and choose only Democrats to prosecute while protecting Republicans. Might as well just make everything up at at that point.

What I still don't get is why the dems didn't release the files when they could. We could have been freed from Trump and other pedophiles.
I’m assuming it’s most likely those files are also riddled with dems in them.
At this point, release the files and put everyone in them who’s guilty away. If they’re guilty of raping children castrate them.
America needs to rebuild its government from the ground up.
Death to pedophiles.
For most of Biden's term they were sealed under court order. But that ended Jan 1st, so there was 20 days to issue the order.

He thinks the ones his fbi has redacted are the ones we're gonna go with
hot take: drumpf has lived in fear of the day pootin releases his p(enis blowing) tape and secretly can't wait for the sweet release of death at the hands of the heir apparent. Any day now...
Translation: he really, really cares.
After dodging this issue for over a year? Press X to doubt.
That's not what he's telling his toadies in Congress
gets punched in face
IT DUSNT HURRRT
There are no consequences for anything that he’s done, so why would he care?

The Narcissist's Prayer
- That didn't happen.
- And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
- And if it was, that's not a big deal.
- And if it is, that's not my fault.
- And if it was, I didn't mean it.
- And if I did, you deserved it.
