The outcry exists but it will fade. And soon too. These people WANT to follow their cult leader. It will just take some time as this outrage is mostly emotional and not really people caring about childrens welfare (they might believe it though).
To be honest it feels like they misshandled this on purpose as to deflect from the Brutal Bafoonery Bill that was even making the news internationally.
I mean i surely do not know enough about american politics to argue against your points. It just seems there are no consequences for even the most despicable people you have, as long as they are powerful enough. Now while Epstein might seem like a good argument i would say he is only dead because he was a danger for more powerful people.
Interesting times to be alive.
