Rightwing ideology is fundamentally fine with what Epstein, Maxwell, and Trump did to girls. Championing anti-pedo politics and going after the clients was just aesthetics, a way to be go after liberals and jews without solid reason, just suspicion and memes. It's like how a witch hunt can come organically through stupidity and mass panic, but you can also use it to go after people you don't like and your enemies.

Ultimately, the save the kids vibes were just like being a free speech warrior who only shows up for holocaust denial. Everyone wants to save kids, freedom is an appealing concept. It's an excuse to go after opponents by playing on a concept that is widely supported, but the specifics and accusations were targeted. It was just a convenient thing to say at the time, like a noble lie or using divinity to prop up monarchy. There are no consistent values or logic, it's doing what you can to better positioned yourself when leftism and even centrism means giving more to workers and consumers, cutting into the profits of the elite.
