Real leaders of a country don't cry in front of people like that because it makes the leader and country looks weak while hurting the people's overall morale and confidence. If a president must cry then do it behind closed doors with family.
You're probably right. If Trump hadn't campaigned on releasing the files only to make himself look guilty as Hell by reneging that promise and dragging his feet after being forced to release them by Congress, we wouldn't be having this discussion right now.
If Kamala had won, we would be on year six of the politicians and MSM not giving the slightest damn about anything to do with the Epstein case.
Instead, we're on year two of it being the only thing they want to talk about.
