On a cable panel debating the Epstein files, progressive commentator 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐓𝐲𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐡𝐞𝐧 insisted the documents implicate President Trump. - M.A. Rothman

• Conservative radio host 𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐑𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐳 asked the obvious follow-up: “𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘴 𝘪𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘌𝘱𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘪𝘯?”
• Cohen never answered. Instead he pivoted: “𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘶𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘢𝘥𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘨𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘮.”

Rantz pointed out the obvious hole in that theory: the 𝐁𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐃𝐎𝐉 had four full years and the same files everyone is demanding now — and never charged Trump with anything. 

If prosecutors with every incentive to go after him found nothing, that's not a cover-up. 

That's an answer.

• Implying guilt while admitting you can't name the crime isn't journalism, it's innuendo.
