My take is that if Trump was an informant who wasnt participating, which that would beg the question as to how he became an informant in the first place, then also why is he fighting so hard to keep it secret? Hes a braggart, and hes not good at secrets. If he was an innocent informant who helped take down a top pedo trafficker, he would be advertising that daily. There would be commemorative coins. Thered be a movie. Etc. Theres a reason he doesnt want the info coming out, and its because it doesnt paint him in a good light. And in real life, informants are usually co conspirators the authorities lean on to get bigger fish. At the end of the day, the release of the full, unredacted Epstein files would clear all of this up. But for some reason, the President, whom Epstein described as his closest friend, opposes releasing it vehemently.
