Just to excite his base. He's doing everything he can to get the country to explode. Just to save his hide re his involvement with Epstein. And, yes, I do believe he is a pedo and a trafficker. And the kid could have been a Russian agent that Patel has no intent whatsoever of capturing, just spread rumors that there are "trans symbols" on the casings....
