If it’s between the party that murders kids, and the party that covers up their trafficking and abuse, we’ll take neither.

Trump ran on a promise to drain this swamp. He gave every indication that he was not beholden to these dark powers, that he would expose them. He claimed, often, to know everything. He said he had seen the tapes. He suggested that he would one day release the full Epstein files. He called the Clintons “involved” and hinted at knowledge that would destroy the pedophile ring. The MAGA base cheered. We assumed justice was coming. We assumed Trump, whatever else he was, would pull back the curtain and show us the beast.

But the curtain remains drawn. And the beast still feasts

Trump has now had multiple chances to unseal the Epstein documents. The courts have begun releasing names in batches. The press has tried, half-heartedly, to track the trails. But Trump—who could bring the full weight of presidential attention and declassification power to bear on this issue—has gone silent. Worse, he has deflected. He has suggested it’s not important. He has said it’s “old news” or that he “doesn’t know much about it.” At times, he has even praised Ghislaine Maxwell, wishing her well on national television. To say this confuses his base would be a dramatic understatement. It terrifies us. It disgusts us. And most dangerously, it awakens within us the possibility that Trump is not who we thought he was.

It’s not just a broken promise. It’s not just a lost opportunity. It is a betrayal of the one thing that made us believe he was different. The one thing that made us trust him. The one thing that made us fight for him when all the world mocked and hated us for it. We believed Trump was a defender of children—both born and unborn. We believed he saw the innocence worth protecting. Now, for the first time, we are forced to ask: was it all just posturing?

There are whispers now, rising into open speculation, even among once-loyal Trump voters. Perhaps he’s protecting someone close. Perhaps he’s afraid of what the intelligence community will do if he opens the vault. Perhaps he was compromised himself. Or perhaps—and this is the most chilling option—he simply doesn’t care anymore. Maybe the game is the game, and Trump, like all the rest, has decided that exposing the darkness is just too costly.
