Trump is probably on the list, so he has to protect that. The Democrats had it during their entire presidency; even if they didn't want turmoil during their time in office, they could have released it after their presidential defeat and before Trump took office.

No idea, but I read the title like it was the setup to a joke.

I am wondering now. How could such a list even be proven real or couldn't trump just fake one?

Because anyone (everyone) on that list is going to immediately sue for defamation etc, and if they don't have evidence or they messed up the chain of custody on that evidence, it'll be an issue. They also will be able to look at all the evidence through discovery and see if it's tampered with. So that's why they can't release even 1 name, because they are protecting Trump

Maybe the idea that Epstein was at the head of a global network of paedophiles, involved with trafficking young girls and boys for the likes of Trump, Clinton and Gates is fanciful.

Impossible? No. Improbable? Yes.

The idea that this is all some Mossad psi-op to influence US politics is also bonkers and predictably falls into classic anti-semitic tropes.

Is it tittilating and fun to speculate about with people online? Sure. Does social and traditional media love a good juicy story like this and will continue to give it play and play? Absolutely.

What is "the list"? How do we know the government even has "the list"?

Your premise is wrong. The Democrats never had the list, and the Republicans don't have it now. The people who actually have that list, and those documents, have names. Use those names. Don't trick yourself into believing that some random congressperson has access or authority.
