Epstein is the lie even Donald Trump can’t sell

“To 70 percent of Trump voters and the millions of Americans tuning in for the media scandal of the summer, Trump the Crusading Epstein Truther now looks like Trump the Man with Something to Hide. The swamp he so boldly pledged to drain is quickly rising up his legs, leaving the president with two bad options: release documents he claims not to have or admit that one of MAGA’s founding myths is a lie. Trump is standing in front of an exploding fireworks store and insisting there is nothing to see here. But he isn’t Frank Drebin and this isn’t ‘The Naked Gun.’ Epstein was a real criminal, and uncovering the full truth of his crimes comes with real stakes for the women he abused and the lives he destroyed. Trump is playing political games with an unspeakable crime.” (07/16/25)
