It would have to be SOLID, beyond dispute, and totally devastating to MF45.

For example, if he had a steamer trunk full of videos and color pictures of MF45 "in action" with different under-aged girls that may be sufficient IF there was no doubt that these were not young looking 18 year olds, there were a massive amount of verifiable under age girls involved, AND (big and) if there was a strong, reliable indication that it would sink MF45 without a doubt due to the victims' absolute agreement to testify and all of the victims were considered star witnesses.

From what I have seen in the past, it is gonna take far, far more than just something routine to move his cult members off their worship of him...or even take these misled idiots down one notch of adoration. Must have something that would completely and fully turn the tide.

As to the deal, nothing promised until Epstein fully cooperated and then it would only be something reasonable -- not King for a Day as he got from Acosta.

JMHO

Maybe the born-again, forced birthers would take notice of the evil which is Trump...and his pals.

They've heard from him that he "grabs" women, that he liked to walk in on teen girls dressing at his pageants, that he lusted after his own daughter.

They know he's entirely capable of this. But they will close their ears again.

Maybe I expect too much good into the human conscience. But...I think that raping 12 year olds is a low that a lot of people would not and could not tolerate. But, then...there's the Catholic Church and that reminds me of just how low "religious" groups can go.

Maybe a deal in exchange for getting out of prison before he dies.

This is beyond politics, his rich party buddies are facing no consequences as it is now. We need to get the goods on those guys so they can be exposed and charged. I doubt that their taste for little girls went away because the Epstein parties did.

Just to keep Barr out of it?

I would cut a deal if he could deliver the goods.
