> best to just quietly wait it out That's what an abuser expects of their victims. The disproportionate retaliation against Spain, I think, is out of fear that the US face consequences. The Trump-Epstein cabal would be quickly over if a united European Union actually put some resistance or threat that affected the bottom line of American companies: "push the petty dictator out, or we stop trade with the US"... billionaires would suddenly start funding progressive think tanks. But I digress... It's nice to fantasize about having elected leaders finally find their balls.
