How will the Epstein scandal vote turnout?

1) the House will kill before it even starts?

2) it pass the House by a slim margin and the Senate will kill it, again!

3) Trump vetoes on his desk?

I have a feeling it’s all a chess game. Keep moving it around and distract everyone from what is happening?

We have seen it before, Trump’s health, Covid deaths, J-6, Jarred’s Saudi deal, Qatar plane gift, the Russian and Putin, Ukraine phone call, etc!

Everything is a conspiracy to coverup their corrupt ways, including the Epstein scandal.

Everyone said Trump had people to watch over him in first term? BS, all they did was allow Trump to be more comfortable in being corrupt.

They had their chances to get rid of Trump, but rather than being responsible? They turned a blind eye.

This Epstein scandal is the biggest scandal of Trump’s own making. He knows he cooked! That is way he doing and saying the things to confuse people.

I’m hoping that the records are released, but I’m not holding my breath. What ever way it turns out? It will most definitely be a scandal in itself? The DOJ will whitewash Trump and other corrupt officials names out it, or it won’t be released at all. Just like everything else, Trump will be in the clear! And that is a travesty to highlight level of corruption and hypocrisy.

I hope I’m wrong, but history has shown us how Trump gets with just about everything, even though he is a convicted felon, he is in the White House!

Hopefully this time will be different, but we've been down this road in one way or another too many times before to prematurely assume anything substantive will happen.

investigating Democrats involvement and they can't be released. He can't release his tax forms because he is under audit. Same old bs.

then it becomes law. The text provides for no exceptions. So the DOJ will not be able to block their release in that case.

It will pass the House by an overwhelming majority. Then, the immediate action after that will likely be Thune in the Senate, tabling it and refusing to bring it to the floor for a vote. At some point, however, I think pressure may force Thune to bring it to the Senate floor for a vote.
