If you believe J.D. Vance, Donald Trump wants “full transparency” when it comes to the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case. Of course, if that were true, we’d know what the Epstein files say about the president and others who were close with the billionaire who trafficked underage girls.

    That’s not just a likely lie - it’s an entirely self-evident and certain lie.

    There’s nothing - not one single thing - that’s standing in Trump’s way. If he actually wanted full transparency, that’s what we’d have, immediately and effortlessly. So it can only be the case that that’s a lie - it’s literally impossible for it to actually be the truth.

      “The people in power don’t want you to know these things!”

      “Sir, you are literally the president and have control over, or have proven you can ignore, most branches of the government.”

      “Shhhhhhhhhhhh”

      Ironically, it was Trump himself set precedent when he released the JFK and MLK files.

      There would be many manila folders, and this time they could be filled with things other than blank paper!
