Hopefully everyone is on the same page as to one of the more likely motives for the attempted assassination of one of the Epstein judges: to cause sufficient delay in the case to push it beyond the 2020 election
PS/ There can be no hope of permanently derailing the case—but this close to election day either a failed judicial assassination or (God forbid) a successful one would cause significant enough complications in the logistics of the case to cause a critical delay in its proceedings
PS2/ It is of course also significant to note that this case is not merely tangentially related to Epstein but the broader money laundering inquiry into Deutsche Bank, which has already seen at least two somewhat suspicious suicides involving people who handled the Trump account
PS3/ Having said that, it seems unlikely that this homicide is going to be solved anytime soon, so all we will be able to do is speculate impotently on who would have benefited most from a delay in a key Deutsche Bank case prior to the 2020 presidential election
PS4/ The reason I focus on the matter of delay is that intimidation doesn't work at this level because a judge can simply recuse and if (God forbid) they're assassinated they're replaced, so the real effect of this attack—besides the tragic death of a judge's son—is a case delay
PS5/ There's no point in seeking to develop an investigative theory for this homicide case this early, as there are just too many possibilities; I do know all Americans would feel more comfortable about the situation being in the news if Trump didn't have well-documented mob ties
PS6/ But one thing that is not on the table, and I assume everyone in America is on the same page on this, is that the assassin and the people who contracted the assassin had no idea of the political implications of this case or of any violence influencing this case pre-election
PS7/ In other words, it's highly likely Trumpworld had no hand in this attempted assassination, but also almost certain the people involved in planning and executing this attempted assassination discussed the presidential election and Trump at some length while hatching this plot
PS8/ I want to clarify again something I already wrote in two threads—namely that "one of the Epstein judges" simply means the case involves alleged money laundering at DB and Epstein's account (and Trump's) have been in the news connected to that bank and that issue at that bank
PS9/ When a NYT bestseller has been written about DB, Trump, and money laundering—and money laundering via DB is a persistent allegation involving Epstein—someone trying to kill the judge on the DB money-laundering case of course makes Epstein and Trump central to the discussion
PS10/ But as I've said, it'd be lunacy to try to seriously speculate on what was behind this attempted assassination; my point has been that this attack immediately becomes a major political focal-point—and would not have been conducted without some consideration of the election.
