Maybe Trump is stalling while his apparatchiks -- that is, Trump's new Deep State, destroy existing Epstein evidence and then forge documents and videos to "prove" that he's being framed by the old Deep State.
Whatever's up, he sure seems to be in a panic about it.
What if, instead of Trump being incriminated in the Epstein evidence, Trump had been collaborating with Epstein, (and Maxwell), and was using the evidence to leverage support from others.
He doesn't want the evidence released as he would then lose that leverage.
