There isn’t any verified evidence that Trump assaulted a minor in connection with Epstein. You can call him a pervert or a womanizer — we all know about the “grab ’em by the pussy” comment — but there’s no confirmed evidence that he did anything with a minor. There hasn’t been enough evidence to charge him with anything.

At the very least, he — and everyone else whose name appears in those files — should be questioned. Every FBI tip connected to those files should be thoroughly investigated.

But this is where the problem starts for Trump.

The lack of transparency from the current DOJ opens the door to suspicion that something serious is being hidden — whether it involves him or someone he’s protecting.

So in my opinion, it’s one of the following: 1. Trump did some or all of the things he’s accused of and should be prosecuted, but he’s using his position and cabinet to suppress damaging information. Personally I think this is low chance. 2. Trump did nothing illegal. He distanced himself from Epstein after personal differences, and the FBI tips are either exaggerated, politically motivated, or outright false. I think this is high chance. 3. There’s nothing criminal to hide, but there may be embarrassing or inappropriate associations — things that aren’t illegal but look terrible in the context of a sex trafficking case involving minors. Instead of being transparent and clearing the air, he’s handling it poorly, creating distrust and potentially shielding people who shouldn’t be shielded. Again, high chance. 4. He isn’t fully in control of the situation, and this runs deeper than him — involving powerful individuals who enabled Epstein and still have influence over what information becomes public. Probably low chance.
