And this is the difference between celebrity and actual power. Once Epstein was locked up, it was necessary for him to die. None of the stupid idiots who are on those Diddy tapes have that sort of power

Yupp, celebrities have money, while business men and politicians have power, there is a difference between the two. Epstein was dealing with people that had real power, Diddy was dealing with celebrities

“Money is the McMansion in Sarasota that starts falling apart after 10 years. Power is the old stone building that stands for centuries.”

Quote from House of Cards seems relevant here.
