In reply to the discussion: Trump 'authorized' Epstein's death, brother told FBI [View all]fujiyamasan
(1,128 posts)Its becoming less and less likely this was just a suicide. There are too many convent coincidences in this whole twisted drama for them to be just that. Too many ties between the players. Epstein clearly had leverage on Trump and likely on Barr as well (and Barr had it on Trump too; thats probably why he hasnt been indicted yet even though trump hates him).
I have a feeling thats also why Barr didnt side with Trump on contesting the election. He knew this would all spill out at some point and he wanted out. Barr was Trumps bagman. He knows where the bodies are buried. Like any bagman, hes also not stupid. He knew the job was done and by dragging things out he was going to implicate himself at some point. Notice his name hasnt really come up recently. I dont think thats just luck.
I think the real concern for Trump was this would be out in time for the 2020 election, which he was possibly on track to winning until COVID.
Im usually not one to entertain conspiracy theories, but sometimes conspiracies arent just theories.
