43. That is a good question.

Tuesday

But we must remember that when all of this was going on, Donald Trump was considered to be a Democrat. He donated money to Hillary Clinton and to Kamala Harris. He cultivated political connections. And his wealthy friends agreed to give large campaign contributions to these connections. They, in turn, received very favorable tax writing legislation, for real estate, etc.

Also, there was a lot going on in 2022 and afterward that Joe Biden and the Democrats may have considered more important than the trips to Epstein's island? They never saw it as the political opportunity they now see, because MAGA was not where they are today.

There may have been very well known Democrats that visited the island and Biden may not have wanted them exposed is another possibility.

I'll go a step further: I don't buy this theory at all. ShazzieB Tuesday #58

I agree MorbidButterflyTat Tuesday #74

They did end their friendship in 2004 and Epstein was first indicted on sex charges in 2007. kentuck Tuesday #77

Yup, and Ghislaine's father was a spy for multiple countries. Joinfortmill Tuesday #37

Yes on all of this, and that's why Epstein would have never wanted Chump for his partner FakeNoose Tuesday #38

Trump and Epstein ended their friendship in 2004 over a bid on some palm Beach property. kentuck Tuesday #75
