    I think that’s true for some MAGAs, but the QAnons have invested deeply in the child-trafficking conspiracy. I think if he created a narrative of, “Yes, I’m on the client list, but it was a double agent for the deep state,” they would swallow it (most of them already believe some version of that), but telling them that their is no conspiracy and they need to move on will not go over well. (Of course, claiming to be an Epstien double-agent is gonna make him look crazy to anyone not Q-pilled, so he can’t do that).

      I think that’s already where Newsmax is going (per 1 random post I saw 2 days ago and can’t find anymore) calling Epstein possibly an amazing patriot as a CIA/Mossad agent getting intel about… I dunno, the Clintons?

      The retcon fantasy is framed up for the Q nuts. I expect they’ll find a way to stumble into it on their own.

      Edit: found it
