No one seriously thought you left one of your kids behind at Pedophile Paradise. The issue is that you insisted Epstein was a monster that you'd never be with again, and then you took the entire Lutnick Extended Universe to bask in his presence.
VAN HOLLEN: Did you in fact make the visit to Epstein's private island?
LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children
