Just smoke. Trump haters will interpret the emails as proof of guilt. MAGA will ignore them. The rest of the country won’t care. I think all of Palm Beach/Manhattan society is tarnished by Epstein as it’s pretty clear everyone knew generally what was going on and simply looked the other way.
Dems trying to change the subject from the reopening of the government when they got NOTHING in return - what a waste. Shutting down the government as a political strategy needs to be buried once and for all.
Nothing? It made people still supporting Trump, like you, even more of a minority.
The poll finds Americans, particularly Republicans, are less likely to approve of the Republican president's management of the government than they were in March.

It shows that only 33% of U.S. adults approve of the way the Republican president is managing the government, down from 43% in an AP-NORC poll from March.
That was driven in large part by a decline in approval among Republicans and independents. According to the survey, only about two-thirds of Republicans, 68%, said they approve of Trump's government management, down from 81% in March. Independents' approval dropped from 38% to 25%.
The results highlight the risks posed by the shutdown, which Trump and his administration have tried to pin squarely on Democrats, even as U.S. adults have cast blame on both parties as the funding lapse has snarled air traffic, left hundreds of thousands of federal workers without paychecks and comprised food aid for some of the most vulnerable Americans. But it could also indicate broader discontent with Trump's other dramatic — and polarizing — changes to the federal government in recent months, including gutting agencies and directing waves of mass layoffs.
Republicans have generally been steadfast in their support for the president, making their growing displeasure particularly notable.
"I'm thoroughly disturbed by the government shutdown for 40-something days," said Beverly Lucas, 78, a Republican and retired educator who lives in Ormond Beach, Florida, and compared Trump's second term to "having a petulant child in the White House, with unmitigated power."
"When people are hungry, he had a party," she said, referring to a Great Gatsby-themed Halloween party held at Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Florida. "I thought he seems callous."
