Nothing to see here folks, just the woman who made the Trump University case go away, sending the guy who tried to make the hush money case go away, to talk to the only person alive who can make the Epstein files go away. Obviously this is fine.

Reminder: there is no Epstein list. Trump wasnāt friends with Epstein. All those photos and videos of them together are all fake. Ghislane Maxwell isnāt in prison for procuring underage girls for Epstein and his pals. Which Trump wasnāt. Thank you for your lack of attention to this matter!
