    Does “short route” home here mean suicide or blackmail? God this shit never clarifies anything but it definitely incriminates Trump.

        The use of the word “home” throws me off. If he said “out” I’d figure it was suicide but home is like “does epstein believe in some kind of afterlife?” Idk its weird. I almost wonder if there was a scheme to bust him out of prison but it turned into murdering him.

          If he would have had a way out he wouldn’t have written this letter incriminating Trump. It seems he got the deal to kill himself on short notice and this letter was the only thing he was able to do before and with it he was trying to take Trump down with him.

          He’s speaking in metaphor, which he seems to like doing often because, like his dumb pedophile cohort, he thinks he’s the Riddler or something.

          He doesn’t need to actually believe in an afterlife to reference one.

            No, Trump is just too stupid to utter coherent sentences.

              I think Trump is too stupid to play the game well, but I think he does try to. It’s like when nazis hiding among normies use super top-secret phrases like “goyim”—they think they’re being clever.
