I'm surprised this kind of thing didn't happen sooner. Right wing media narratives about Trump and Epstein have had to make more and more compromises the more obvious it became the two were very close. At first it was something like "Everyone knew Epstein. The Clintons knew him too!"

Then it was something like "Ok Trump and Epstein were close but Trump didn't know about the pedo stuff." Then it was "ok Trump knew about it but that's why he didn't talk to Epstein after 2003." I guess now we're at a point where they have to argue that it wasn't actually pedophilia.

Don't forget the whitehat pedophile arc
