So if I understand the Trump strategy correctly, they want their base to buy that Obama, Comey, and (somehow) Hillary Clinton deviously placed his name into the casefiles about his best friend Jeffrey Epstein, but then never breathed a word about it through 3 elections? Is that right?

Incidentally, while I am not in the habit of giving strategic advice to Democrats, I’ll offer this: The name “Jeffrey Epstein” should never leave your lips without being preceded by “Donald Trump’s longtime best friend”.

I'd replace "best friend" with "fuckbuddy." A lot of the success of MAGA is just inserting some technical falsehood into the Discourse that their opponents are obsessed with arguing against. Make them argue that Trump isn't Epstein's bottom. Make them argue that no, he has hemorrhoids.

I mean, it worked with the Steele Dossier: only public coverage before the election was a single David Corn article in Mother Jones, and it is STILL treated as one of the most evil criminal plots in history he references frequently.

Honestly, I wouldn't put it past the Dems to be that timid, compromised and ineffective. Have you watched these people do politics for the last 10 years? Sorry.
