You’re confusing joy at watching them being hoisted on their own petard with joining in the conspiracy theories.
The funny thing with Epstein is it wasn’t just the Q-anon types. Even normie republicans got to believing their own memes and developed the absurd view that whatever motivated Epstein - whether foreign intelligence or influence or money - he somehow limited his ‘favors’ to democrats.

Whatever you've convinced yourself is going on in your own mind is not my concern. The fact is that in the public conversation, such as the snippets you posted above from your twitter feed, everybody is giving credence to the existence of this incriminating list, and a coverup now fully joined by the Trump administration.

I guess you can believe that, after watching them pander to every conspiracy out there and create many new ones of their own, that I had to ‘convince myself’ to enjoy seeing one bite them in the ass. But it should be obvious that came rather naturally to me.

Your sadistic pleasures are not in dispute. I do dispute the notion that the public conversation currently contains those who don't actually think an incriminating list exists. That means most people on the left have given more credence to the list's existence, now that it scores them political points. Exactly the same motivation the right had, for believing the list exists.

There never was a list. Trump knew that all along, although it made a great talking point to both his base and the hysterical progressive left.
What’s beginning to reveal itself now is Trump’s version of the Night of the Long Knives to purge the “more radical elements” of the MAGAt cult.

Re ‘there never was a list’ likely true, though there were many reports, including from the DoJ, that his properties had hidden cameras everywhere and there was a cache of CDs with videos on them with labels that would say [girls name] with [Epstein guest name]. The mere collection of such titles is essentially a list.

Phony stuff. Hmm. Could be. It rather depends on who amassed the information. A lack of credibility would have been a better explanation than there wasn't one. There may not be a "list' per se, but there IS a quantity of information. I think we can all agree that the FBI/DOJ etc. has been known to be unreliable gatherers and leakers of information.

At this point who can trust whatever the DOJ or administration releases anyway? Honest question. I'm sure there is a list of people who traveled with Epstein and I'm sure Trump is on the list. Maybe that was already released, what does it even mean? Heck, there could be a video of Trump slamming a 17 year old on a yacht, and most MAGA folks will say it's AI or doesn't matter because it was 30 years ago.

He seems pretty confident that there’s “phony” stuff in those files.
Another interesting thing about this is that this edit by FoxNews during the campaign, is a much bigger favor to Trump then the 60 minutes edit was to Harris. You know, the one Trump used to extort 15MM from Paramount.
