Bill Kristol: Don’t Stop Now! You’re Doing Great!

Thursday, July 31, 2025

If Trump cared at all, it was, by Trump's own account, because Epstein was "taking [Trump's] people""not because of what Epstein was then doing to them. It's clear that Trump never cared about Epstein's and Maxwell's victims. It's clear that he still doesn't care about the victims. Trump can't even bring himself to pretend to care. He's discussed the Epstein matter many times. He's expressed concern for Maxwell. Has he ever expressed concern for the victims? Trump feels aggrieved that Epstein stole his "people." He feels no empathy for those people"girls who were then trafficked and raped.

So, as Trump has talked and talked over the last few weeks, these facts have become clearer:

Trump knew what Epstein was up to.

*He didn't care about what Epstein was doing.

*And he still doesn't care about Epstein's victims.

We know that Trump does care about himself. And it's obvious that he cares a lot about keeping the files under wraps. What's in them that's more damning than what we already know? Trump presumably knows. He talks and talks, but he doesn't want us to find that out.

Even after Trump's yapping, his frantic to-ing and fro-ing ...

Still, the files remain a silent but looming presence. They are the ghost who might tell the truth at Trump's banquet. Trump fears those files. But he has confidence in his ability to talk. His fear and confidence combine to lead him to keep on talking.

Some of his staff must be worrying that the president doth talk about Epstein too much. To which all I have to say is this: Mr. President, don't listen to them. Keep on talking!
