115. There you go making assumptions again.

I knew who made that statement right away but consider it irrelevant. Are you Brad Edwards? apparently you believe everything he says is gospel truth even when there is evidence contradicting it. Brad Edwards, despite representing many victims, is far from a unimpeachable source. He has made many ridiculous and false statements over the years including that Epstein committed suicide - a statement that practically all of the victims disagree with. Despite your refusal to admit it, there have been many victims who have said they were trafficked. Sorry, you are as close minded about this as all the people here who are convinced that Trump is automatically guilty of everything that has been alleged just because someone made an accusation. You're both wrong and refuse to accept contrary opinions so there is no point in continuing here. I'm done. Bye.
