Apparently, he had a lot of video cameras. Hmmmm.
Along with trump in photos with epstein,
Fidel Castro?
Bro was playing all sides.
Being rich, owning a yacht and knowing Castro really aren't that uncommon. It's a fairly common travel spot if you sail and Castro weirdly enough by all accounts is a natural host. You're not supposed to go there as a us citizen but I'm pretty sure Epstein kept dual.
That doesn't discount possible weird stuff but it's not that crazy by itself.
That's the thing about the honeypot, you get someone rich to have parties and other rich and powerful people come to them. Even if it is just a normal rich person party then you name is on a list or your picture is taken.
Then later when the crazy disgusting parties are uncovered, you have the normie rich people's names involved as well as the Trumps and Dershowitz, so now you don't know who is a regular rich asshole and who is a rich over the pants sexual molestor rich asshole.
