High Bribes and Blackmail

 In hindsight it is easy to discern Jeffry Epstein's underage sex trafficking ring had deeper roots than a randy Saturday night at the drive in.  Perhaps he was privy to insider trading tips and the usual perks of Wall Street influentials.  Considering the Trump/MAGA fervor which erupted seemingly out of nowhere, a past business agreement similar to Trump's other bawdy pay offs is plausible.  How is it that the entirety of the U.S. Congress has bowed to his whims?  Epstein.  Sex with minors on a private island.  Political leverage.  These equate to blackmail of the best kind.  The film "L.A. Confidential" (which should have won the Oscar) portrays it brilliantly.  On the level of the little man, the street drug dealer who uses and relies upon violence in his business acumen, a little coke and a twirl may  pay the bills.  Donald Trump is shrewd, and a potential partnership with Jeffry Epstein to bribe anyone and everyone is cunning.  It took this long to come to fruition, a criminally obtained second term of the American Presidency.  Biden's four years were the undergraduate curriculum of The Right, and whether or not just or moral they logged their hours in astronomy lab.  I agree with some of the things Trump is doing, like expelling college students using American institutions as hosts for foreign revolutions.  Hamas brutally attacked Israel but with information stolen from the House of White by Donald Trump.  It took two years to mastermind this skirmish, and Trump blatantly bragged about this stolen information in public.  "Look what I have!  Now we have a reason to raze Gaza and build Trump City."  All of that felonious criminal activity was swept under the rug by an on-the-take SCOTUS.  It was too convenient.  Like his ensuing dictatorship, winning his power through the court system was his postulate.  The example was set in Florida between Al Gore and George W. Bush.  The sanctity and power of the United States Supreme Court was omnipotent until now.  As a populace we never stopped to consider they may turn on the people.  Trump, behind the scenes, directing democratic politicians to the Virgin Islands for sex with underage girls is too good to ignore, and Washington agrees.  As for the files and their disappearance?  I'm sure there are boxes and boxes of photographs and videotapes hidden in a bathroom at Mar-a-lago.  No big surprise, but it would be difficult to side step the flying Jizz-lane Maxwell.  We will have a sideshow for a while distracting us from more important covert military activity.
