What I found most fascinating was the transcripts of the secret government recordings in MLK’s home. There is one point where he is talking with Coretta Scott King about how Trump never wrote any birthday card to Jeffrey Epstein.

Did he also say he is the best president the USA has ever had and he definitely gave him the N pass?

But also Trump released the "MLK" files in an effort to deflect the heat off the Epstein thing.
