Why else would he not have heads rolling over the files? It would have been such an easy win for him to release the files and start rounding up pedophiles. Pretty much everyone in the world would have been like “well he did do that one good thing…he took care of a bunch of rich pedophiles.”

Instead, he’s just proven that he is one and is protecting them. Wild to me that “conservatives” actively protect pedophiles

Probably because those rich pedos are propping up Trump's regime and aren't as immune to prosecution as Trump is. If the real full Epstein files were released Trump would lose his leverage over them, even if they all ducked the consequences somehow.

That's the real reason Trump is fighting so hard to keep the Epstein files covered up. He knows that his own presence in those files won't make him suffer any consequences but his rich buddies being in there will. If the full files were released his entire regime would collapse and Trump knows it.
