A resurfaced clip shows sex offender Jeffrey Epstein pleading the Fifth when he was asked during a deposition if he ever socialized with underage girls around Donald Trump.
The video clip, unearthed by left-leaning outlet MeidasTouch, shows Epstein responding to questions during a March 2010 deposition. The disgraced financier was questioned by an attorney of an alleged victim, Vice News previously reported.
Because he had to plead the 5th to protect Donald. We know that Donald is guilty of diddling children.
Well yeah, we know that. But if it were as incontrovertibly known about Trump as it is about Epstein, we wouldn’t be asking for the release of the Epstein list to prove Trump is guilty.
The point is he plead the 5th when asked if he raped children with Trump. So by Trump own words that means he plead the 5th because they did that.
Trump said (well, heavily implied) that the party who pleads the 5th is guilty, not that other parties not present are also guilty.
There’s a practically infinite amount of bullshit coming out of Trump’s mouth we can criticize so easily; I don’t see why anyone would feel the need to transparently mince his words to invent more.
I don’t think it was to protect Trump. I think it was still the normal sort of selfish legal maximization. The story is that he couldn’t answer about his times being with both Trump and young girls without incriminating himself, which implies that when they were both together with young girls, something illegal happened.
