President Donald Trump slammed voters continuing to call for the release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein, saying, “I don’t want their support anymore.”
The president has been adamantly trying to move on from Epstein, asking why people were still discussing “this creep” two days after the Department of Justice concluded its investigation. Trump compared the Epstein concerns to claims that Russia interfered with the 2016 election Wednesday morning, saying Democrats “hit pay dirt, again” among voters.
“Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this ‘bulls***,’ hook, line, and sinker. They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years,” Trump said on Truth Social.
Trump said he’s “had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country’s history,” but people only want to discuss the “Epstein Hoax.” He added these “weaklings” could continue to focus on it since “I don’t want their support anymore.”
The president said Tuesday that the Epstein files had been “made up” by former FBI Director James Comey and former Presidents Joe Biden and Barack Obama. Trump also stood by Attorney General Pam Bondi and her handling of the investigation.
VOTERS DON’T BELIEVE TEAM TRUMP ON EPSTEIN, MAY BE HIS ‘AFGHANISTAN’
Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Ro Khanna (D-CA) filed a discharge petition Tuesday to bypass their leadership and force a vote to push the Department of Justice to release the “complete” Epstein files. Massie, who received Trump’s ire last month, said people “deserve” to know what’s in the files, and people “were promised justice and transparency.”
Meanwhile, House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-MD) sent a letter to Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) to request a hearing on the Epstein files. Raskin said on Sunday that the president and Bondi have “the power” to release these files, and are “the closest thing we’ve got to the deep state right now.”
