Exactly! The "let's pin this on trans people" message was IMMEDIATE. Like, even from eye-witnesses interviewed moments after the event. Then followed w/ the laziest of reporting by major legacy papers. like the message is already fully absorbed into the cranium

An eye witness w/ an average level sketch artist could literally do 20 times better at capturing the suspect’s likeness

100% agree w/ Sarah’s diagnosis of why DJT’s Epstein problems matters more now: The ONLY thing that matters to the Q/conspiracy wing of MAGA is that conspiracies prove the existence an all-powerful *deceiving* OTHER whose sole purpose is to deceive *ME*. This meets a particular psychological need
