It tries to dodge the question, but then references a letter claiming he’s mentioned 38,000 times. Ask, “On January 6th, was there an insurrection?” You don’t get much. Then ask, “Did the insurrectionists hurt police officers?” And you’ll get your answer.

Lol. America’s “super intelligence” is fun. The answers seem to depend on how you ask the question. 😂 Ask, “Is Trump in the Epstein files?” Get nothing. Ask, “How many times is Trump mentioned in the Epstein files?”
