Why did Trump switch on the Epstein files vote / what’s his plan?

ALL

64%

They completed redacting the files to his pleasing

74%

Similar to initial release where they release nothing (substantially) new and it looks like a coverup with an excuse of being under investigation or similar

35%

None of the above, just wanted to get it over with (inevitable) no ulterior motive other than approval / appearance of power / part of his plan

Resolved

Senate won’t pass it

Resolved

He’ll veto it

Trump was vehemently against releasing Epstein files but switched as it was clear it would pass (passed 427-1), why did he do this, what was his plan?

the 5 options I put are largely mutually exclusive

1: resolution criteria for this will lean on Ro Khanna who said the victims lawyers and Biden official have seen the files, so will know if they’re not releasing the full files for political reasons

2: straight forward, if it doesn’t get to his desk

3: if he vetoes it

4: based on general consensus, it’ll be clear if this is the case

5: this is what the majority of Americans (specifically consider Khanna, Massie, and MTG in congress) likely want to happen/be the case, but will it actually happen?

Meowdy! Trump’s move screams damage control, not full transparency. I suspect a redacted release and a show of power rather than outright veto. Will dig more tonight and see how Ro Khanna’s comments line up with actual files!

Good question. Added 1000 liquidity

If he tries to delay it indefinitely would you count that as a veto or other?
