A Republican president once picked Ben Bernanke—a future Nobel laureate—because expertise mattered more than spin. That norm, picking Fed chairs for brains not loyalty, does more to protect your paycheck than any campaign slogan.

If Trump was truly innocent & had nothing to hide, & truly wanted truth & justice in the #Epstein case, why would he demean survivors by calling it all a "Democrat hoax"? Why wouldn't he have them to the White House? Why wouldn't he stand with them in solidarity? Think about it
