I DO respect Trump's concern that his 80s publicist, John Barron, might be unjustly accused in the Epstein mess. [View all]

I know so many people think that Trump only cares about himself, that his demand for "loyalty" only flows in one direction, and to those people I say "What about Trump's concern for his loyal 80s / 90s publicist John Barron?"

So many people speculated about what was going on with Trump during those years, but John regularly called in to radio shows with valuable "inside info" that only someone who was VERY close to Trump would know!

So those who are pointing to John Barron flying on Epstein's "Lolita Express" or hanging out with him need to understand what President Trump has told us on many occasions...Epstein knew a LOT of people, and the fact that John Barron knew him is MEANINGLESS.

We can criticize Donald Trump for a number of things, but when his loyalty to and respect for his publicist is mocked, we are all diminished in the process.

(OH, come ON, do I REALLY need this: )
