Trump said this in 2012. Now he’s President.
And after he became President, Trump signed 2 executive orders in 2017 to unleash the Justice dept. on child traffickers and pedophiles and take their property. Arrests for these crimes have skyrocketed since.

Trump then signed the Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) in 2018, a bill which clarifies the country's sex trafficking law to make it illegal to knowingly assist, facilitate, or support sex trafficking, and amend the Section 230 safe harbors of the Communications Decency Act (which make online services immune from civil liability for the actions of their users) to exclude enforcement of federal or state sex trafficking laws from its immunity.

President Trump Zeros in on Elite Pedophiles
The arrests of Epstein, Maxwell, Nygard, Raneire, Mack, and Bronfman (NXVIUM) were federal sealed indictments that we would have never seen if Trump was not elected.
Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre confirmed in unsealed court documents last year that she never saw Trump at the Island, or at Epstein's home, or with Epstein, and didn’t witness Trump involved with any of the girls groomed by Epstein.
“It’s true that he didn’t partake in any sex with us, but it’s not true that he flirted with me. Donald Trump never flirted with me,” said Giuffre.
Trump 2015: “That island was really a cesspool, no question about it, just ask Prince Andrew, he’ll tell you about it – the island was an absolute cesspool and he’s been there many times,” said Trump.

Lawyer For Epstein Victim Says Trump Was “Only” High Powered Person Who Helped Him
Back when Trump was in the primary I voted for Ben Carson. In those days I wondered whether Trump's brazen demeanor would be good for a president, but after he won and I noticed the unmitigated hatred that the swamp had for this man, I decided YES, he's an asshole, but he is MY asshole! Then when I heard about the many sealed indictments of PEDOs from the Trump admin, and that Trump was fighting pedophilia, I knew that he was the real deal. I've been on the MAGA train ever since.
