I don't think he's trying to cover up Epstein's crimes. I think Trump is trying to cover up his own crimes that were committed with Epstein. Trump doesn't have friends or people he protects. Trump only has useful idiots that he will turn on without a second thought.

Yep. Trump doesn't like 'losers' like Epstein.

Trump's only covering Trump's crimes. Or at most doing someone a 'favour' to be repaid soon.
