Yes, sexual entitlement explains why much about Trump's life. But it really is not the main story line here. It is a thread that ties together all the plot lines. We must not look at this as primarily a story of how powerful men feel they are entitled to sex. That is a "Dog bites man" story. Old as the hills.
To understand the Trump-Epstein partnership -- the enterprise that made both of them rich and powerful, we need to understand the other half of the story. Yes, rich, powerful men do often feel entitled to sex anywhere they can get it. And many of them think they are above the law and above public scrutiny. Robert Craft. Jim Bakkar. Jimmy Swaggert. Gary Hart. The list is endless
That is not news. The more important story is that Epstein and Trump realized, with Putin's help undoubtedly, that they could turn their own sexual obsessions into something much bigger and much more profitable. It became an international extortion ring, evidently entrapping people like Prince Andrew, Bill Gates, Bill Clinton, who knows?? That's why we need to see the actual files
What we do know is that Epstein received payments approaching a billion dollars. You don't make money like that simply by supplying young girls for exploitation. That is extortion money. That is money laundering money. The sex was simply the bait. And the sexual entitlement was the force of nature that brought the best marks to the bait voluntarily.
So please, let's stop talking about this as if the story was Trump raping young girls. That's not news and it isn't the main story.
