Yep...

To your very valid point:

It should have ended when he physically mocked a disabled man at a rally.

Agreed.
Speaking of "predators"...

Exactly. And now theres an investigation so the AG doesnt have to release the files at all.

That will be the “Part II” of this story.

Unless those women start naming names and blow this fuckery right out of the water then we might as well find a new topic and move on.

The he will try to drive Time out of business.

I find it just as much if not more likely he was engaged in shady financial dealings via Epstein. There is more proof he can’t resist dirty money than there is that he is a kiddie diddler.

I can think of a scene from "Weapons" I would like to see him recreate.

He claims he wants to return to yesteryear? I have known several "old fashioned" males who would have demanded an apology from him in the least. Some of them might have taken a poke at him for his behavior.

He's disgusting in any era's values.

Yep, just like how he stymied release of his tax returns claiming an IRS audit prevented it. He is an old con artist who just repeats his patterns.

This was obvious when the investigation was announced. Trump's sudden about-face was an attempt to salvage his image of holding power over his party.
