20. This is a landmine

I understand we all want to believe there is something there. My position is simple; if there was anything negative about the resident in the Epstein files, the Harris campaign would have used it. Say what you will about Orangina, he's not stupid. He's crafty like a fox and he's holding onto the info for a reason. There are only two possibilities here, the files don't exist, or they do exist and contain damning info on highly placed people. If they don't exist, the repubs and QANON look stupid for having held onto this canard for years. If they do exist, they likely contain awful stories about our side (if they don't the right will make some up). If we force the release (as has been floated legislatively) and it blows back on Dems, we look stupid. The best thing to do now is leave it alone. Let the Repubs look foolish by harping on non existent files for years. We spin it as them having wasted time and money chasing their tails. Let's take that win and not give them the chance to fabricate negative things about us.
