this story is from last week but when i heard massie's words i couldn't believe that the media didn't pick up on it and run with it. he should be asked if he knows something about trump in the epstein files that we don't. anyway, you can easily find this exchange he had with manu raju last week, but here is the transcript:
*********************************************************************************************
And how many Republicans do you think will vote for this on the floor? the reporter asked.
Massie responded:
Well, Ive already had a couple Republicans tell my office privately that theyre going to vote for it. And I think that could snowball. I mean, you know, the deal for Republicans on this vote is that Trump will protect you if you vote the wrong way.
In other words, if you vote to cover up for pedophiles, youve got cover in a Republican primary. But I would remind my colleagues that this vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when youre in a debate either with a Republican or a Democrat and they say, How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.

there last two sentences say it all:
But I would remind my colleagues that this vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when youre in a debate either with a Republican or a Democrat and they say, How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.
^^^ how can you interpret that any way other than massie is stating that trump is a pedophile.
