How did the man who wrote FIRE AND FURY come to this conclusion? he is very obviously a never trumper.

If he has them, release them. But with that being said, anything Epstein SAYS about Trump should be taken with a grain of salt. Not that I support Trump in anyway but it of course would be easy in retrospect to make up some bullshit about someone that was running for office or president at the time. If the tapes are Epstein discussing Trump pre-2015 then I would find it much more compelling.
