Newly discovered Epstein files show Epstein predicting that "psychotic" Trump would bomb Iran if he were "cornered [View all]

Like a Rat.

Jeffrey Epstein's creepy 2018 iMessages, now dug up from the DOJ-released Epstein files, are aging like fine ... Well, not wine.

Back in December 2018, the convicted predator was texting away, possibly to Steve Bannon, speculating that a certain “psychotic” leader whose name we all know might “bomb Iran” if he ever felt “cornered like a rat.”

Epstein wrote: “You guys need to understand that he is psychotic... mindset: if I go down, I'm taking everyone with me.”
“Cornering a rat, never a good idea.”

He even mused that Trump could encourage an attack to “leap to the country's defense mindset,” creating a big diversion to rally support and reset the board when domestic pressure mounts.

And look where we are today: Trump is pounding Iran, assassinating leaders, sinking ships, and racking up American casualties – all without congressional approval – while the Epstein files keep dripping out more ugly details about his old network of pervy rich guys.

Three U.S. troops dead, civilians killed, region on the brink of wider war, and Trump's response? Slurring through shrugs that more deaths are just “the way it is.”

Epstein wasn't some oracle; he was just a cynical observer who knew how desperate egos work. When cornered, they lash out, escalate, and drag everyone else into the fire.
