1. Why?..................

this puzzles me.

[EYESORE 9001]

4. The Epstein files were supposed to be choc-a-bloc with names of democrats

according to the codswollop they’d been lapping up. The ‘deep state’ was supposedly covering up for democrats, so now this implies rump has gone over to the ‘dark side’ too.

[newdeal2]

2. We need to keep this story alive

And drive another wedge between Trump and his base.

This is a coverup and everyone knows it.

3. The depravity doesn't bother them but their titillation has been jammed

This is a temporary polling blip, they'll worship again soon because they want the freedom.

5. Seems like most effective political messaging.

David Plouffe, are you taking notes?
