      He was the sitting President of the United States, who had total control of the US Department of Justice, when Epstein died in federal custody under the DOJ.

      I would say he absolutely had the necessary influence.

        Yeah well we already heard what his lawyers would say, He is allowed to assasinate people against him unless congress says it was naughty. You know… those people he would just have killed before their votes were finalized.

      He had like a bajillion dollars and connections to everyone. You don’t need gov connections to have access to a hitman, they come to you when you’re that big of a deal… probably. Idk wtf I’m talking about though.
