Absolutely.

She wasn't particularly competent.

I think she dropped the ball on a ton of things.

The Epstein handling was a farce, the way she handled that initial White House meeting, the handout of the binders.

And I think it did extreme damage to Trump, the way she handled it.

So I don't blame him, and I don't find it particularly surprising that he's probably had enough, especially when you look at what happened with Tish James, with James Comey, with so many things falling apart.

I think he understands now, yeah, loyalty is important, but you need to have somebody who can actually do the job competently every day.

No.

And I think what she didn't understand and what a lot of people didn't understand was that the Epstein case was not just about Jeffrey Epstein.

It was a proxy for a shadow government, a bunch of corrupt people who could lead the nation around by the nose, get rich and never have any accountability.

That's actually what the whole thing is.

stands for.

And I understand that there are specific crimes that people are very upset about and want accountability for.

But when Trump kind of went out during the campaign and made a big deal that he was going to be the one to get all this stuff out, he was going to be the one who get to the bottom of it, people really believed him.

And they said, oh, well, finally, this is going to be the guy, this outsider that they tried to kill, that they tried to put in prison, that they tried to bankrupt.

This is going to be the guy who's finally going to hold everyone accountable.

And I think he has done that to a large extent, but not with the Epstein thing.

And so you had a lot of people who really felt disillusioned when they saw him come out and say, oh, it's a hoax or this and that.

He was very poorly advised by whoever did that, whether it was the FBI, whether it was Bondi.

And that began, I think, a series of significant missteps from him that eroded key demographics.
