Donald Trump is not fighting the deep state. He is the deep state. He is not exposing the cabal. He is the cabal. He is not a warrior for the children. He is the propaganda, the cover-up, the shield. And he has never stopped lying about it. He is not releasing the Epstein Files because he is implicated in them. That is not speculation and it is the only explanation consistent with the facts. An innocent man would have released the names. An innocent man would have stood before the nation and declared he had nothing to hide. Instead, Trump hid everything, and his MAGA followers are so broken by the cult they cannot see this as a cover-up.
