I mean, it's a target-rich environment.

Let's just put it that way.

The record is full, full of –

Kash Patel, Pam Bondi, J.D.

Vance, others.

Like, we're going to get to the bottom of Epstein.

And then also there's this other thing that this is about the only scandal in the Trump era, whereas he's engaging in sort of that classic political dissembling that makes voters' antenna go up.

Like, is there something real here?

Because the other way that he's dealt with scandal in the past in his administration is just to—

Do it right out in the public.

Raising it out.

I wrote about this.

I mean, you know, he pardons a guy whose company helped pump up the value of Trump crypto, and he just does it.

Or he just releases the memo about trying to extort a political investigation out of Zelensky.

He just puts it all out there, and it really—

confuses voters because they're not used to politicians just dumping their scandal out on the public and just saying, here it is.

But this is classic political scandal conduct, hiding the ball, working very hard to keep things concealed, and all of that broadcast to the public, there's something bad here.

And so I think it'd be malpractice for the Democrats not to lean into that in the short term.

But if all you do is win because the other side is bad,

Then what we're doing is we're trapping ourselves more and more into the cycle we've been through for the past 20 years, which is Republicans win.
