Potentially explosive. Epstein is a very rich convicted paedophile who got a very light sentence. He also has some powerful friends and associates in high places in addition to the execrable Donald.
(cough.. Bill… cough… Clinton).

Normally I’m hesitant to support raising such a thing without a trial or something but the circumstances aren’t too different to when Trump practically called Bill a rapist.

On Epstein: Mr. Trump told a reporter a few years ago: “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it, Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”
I think both the complainant and Mr Trump deserve their day in court, and that it shouldn’t be postponed until after the election. If there’s merit in the case, the voters deserve to know; if not, then Mr Trump deserves to be able to run in November without this hanging over him (as much as I dislike him and his policies).

I think that’s unlikely to happen before the election. Still if things go bad I suppose he can give himself a presidential pardon.
