The Epstein-Trump files are scheduled for release this Friday, December 19, according to law. Given how desperate the Malignant Fascist has been to keep the files hidden, the expectation is that they contain pervasive evidence of the MF's general moral turpitude (not that that's ever been a problem for his most loyal followers) and his specific involvement in the Epstein sex trafficking operation. Meanwhile, Republicans are scrambling to get their messaging straight in order to protect their cult leader and Epstein BFF from existential damage. From Courier:
A leaked memo that circulated through Congress Tuesday details talking points Republicans are expected to use when talking about the Epstein Files as a way to protect President Donald Trump, conveying an image of a party resigned to the fact that those files will indeed be published on Friday and that their leader will be implicated in one of the most extensive international sex trafficking operations in recent history.
The memo, first published by Fox News, outlines how congressional Republicans should direct any discussion surrounding the contents of the Epstein Files away from Trump, and outlined a list of accusations to allege against journalists and Democratic lawmakers. In essence, the memo gives step-by-step instructions on how to utilize a psychological manipulation tactic known as DARVO (deny, attack, reverse victim and offender) in order to brush aside any alleged wrongdoing by the president, while villainizing his opposition and framing Trump as the victim.
“Democrats have demonstrated a sustained pattern of misconduct,” the memo reads. “To fabricate yet another politically motivated hoax targeting President Trump. As a result, nothing Democrats post or leak on this matter can be taken at face value. Equally troubling, much of the Legacy Media has uncritically amplified these falsehoods, acting as a willing conduit rather than performing basic due diligence.”
Missing from the document are any points that refute the accuracy or legitimacy of the actual contents of the Epstein Files, or any calls for accountability for the alleged co-conspirators. Instead, Republicans have been given marching orders to endlessly litigate to the press how the information has been released — and then attack the press for not sugarcoating the contents of the files... (our emphasis)
Here we go again with the "hoax" framing and attempting to picture the MF as a victim. Well, that should go over well with Epstein's true victims and with everyone who's been demanding to know the truth about the Epstein sex trafficking operation and elites evading accountability! It's possible the cowed corporate media will fall in line with the "playing the refs" strategy, but this is too big a story to make flimsy "both sides" excuses (note that the memo was originally published by Fox News, possibly in a move to deflate the Republican media strategy), especially as it involves the sitting President.
We'll have to wait to see what the DOJ releases, but we firmly believe that proverb: the truth will out.
