Hi Banksy,

Why would Trump order the release of the files? What is the clear political advantage to Trump of ordering the release of the files and taking full responsibility for whatever the unknown consequences of his order might be?

Tons of posts here lately telling us in detail that release of the files won't really resolve things to anyone's satisfaction anyway.

Far better to hand the hot potato off to Congress, which Trump has now done.

Whatever happens, Trump can claim not to be ultimately responsible. It's in Congress's hands now.

Additionally, all of you "Rule of Law" folks always insist that Trump should be deferring to Congress on important issues such as tariffs, Venezuela, and so forth.

When he doesn't defer to Congress, ProGlibs get angry. When he does defer to Congress,like he's doing with the Epstein files, ProGlibs still get angry.

Just because you don't understand his game theory approach to these things doesn't mean jack.
