There is not an Epstein party to protest against. Trump literally campaigned on releasing them. Everyone wants them released except for those that they incriminate, which is very clearly includes Trump, or the republicans would have done it by now. However they can't exactly say "We support pedophiles" so there's not anything to *protest* against.

Yesterday's e-mails and Maxwell living in a minimum security prison-resort as a result of her saying she didn't see Trump do anything wrong after Trump visited her would be enough to impeach any president in the history of ever until MAGA happened. Hell even Prince Andrew was stripped of his titles.

The protest would be simply about Trump's ties to Epstein and how protestors want pedophiles out of White House. You can, of course, throw in some ties to older or lesser-known cases. The protest would be more about forcing the issue into the mouths of politicians. Harder to claim that the protestors are antifa or hate America. Can't really post yourself shitting on them. Force the narrative. Create a scandal for Trump instead of waiting and reacting when one occurs.

Currently, the scandal has simmered for too long. If there are no photos of Trump raping someone in Epstein's presence, the scandal will dry out, and people will grow numb. "Just another stale talking point from the Democrats." If the photos exist, they are unlikely to pop out at this point. In my opinion, the way to go is to increase the heat and throw gas on the fire.
What is already known should be sufficient.

The challenge is that the people obsessed with the Epstein files are the hardest core of MAGA, so they are going to have to unwind some pretty deeply held beliefs about the Dems being a ring of pedophiles and Donald Trump being the hero that was going to expose all of them.

Some of the MAGA pod casters are still on board with finding the files but they are walking a fine line on.l how they go about it given that it is very clear that Trump is one of the major players and not the hero they were sold.

For the rest of people it’s pretty easy, this is just confirmation of what has always been obvious. DJT is a guy who uses his money and power to bed women and when that doesn’t work he does it anyway and uses his money and power to get out of it. He has said as much, there is documented cases and that is before getting into all the ULTRA creepy sexual comments he has made about his own daughter.

My guess is the MAGA folks for the most part are in too deep and will move on to the next made up thing. But some will fall off, especially those with non cult member friends who can remind them of this over and over.
