18. Oh, Trump played a role in recruiting the girls, but his main job

was recruiting "all the pest people". Sure, he bought beauty pageants to recruit the girls. And Mar-a-lago was used to groom some of them. But Trump's big part of this operation was to get powerful people to the island. Epstein took it from there. Maxwell was the main person in charge of grooming, but she was also very likely deeply involved in selling that kompromat. Her father, after all, had very deep connections with the major spy agencies all over the world. Some of them would pay big backs to have leverage on people like Clinton, Gates, British royalty, and Trump himself, of course.

I know it is distasteful to describe the horrors that happened to these girls as just moving pawns around on a chessboard, but that's how it was.
