  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

These people have always been with us, and always will be. Now that Epstein's gone, you can be sure that someone is setting up a replacement service, and it's probably Trump. Nobody knows Epstein's business better than Trump, and he also knows how lucrative it is. He won't be able to resist the lure of those riches. It is literally impossible for him.

And now his detention centers are filled with pretty teenagers of both sexes, separated from their families, attorneys, or any adult supervision and/or protection. They could easily disappear, and it might be a long time before anyone realizes they're missing, maybe forever.

Nobody is in a better position to take over Epstein's business than Trump, and he certainly has no moral objections.
