Donald Trump has caused a stir with a controversial post concerning the Epstein Files.
The former president is known for his erratic and free-flowing style of communication on social media. However, his latest comments, coinciding with the release of more information from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate, have left many taken aback.
Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender, was infamous for his connections to influential figures, which he used to protect his illicit operations involving the trafficking of underage girls.
Among those whose ties to Epstein are being scrutinized are Donald Trump and former US president Bill Clinton. It’s important to note that neither Trump nor Clinton has been formally charged with any crimes related to Epstein.
Trump took to Truth Social to unleash a barrage of accusations against the Democrats, suggesting they were linked with Epstein.
He posted: “Now 1,000,000 more pages on Epstein are found. DOJ is being forced to spend all of its time on this Democrat inspired Hoax. When do they say NO MORE, and work on Election Fraud etc.
“The Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans. Release all of their names, embarrass them, and get back to helping our Country!”
Trump’s statements labeled the investigations into Epstein’s connections as a ‘witch hunt,’ claiming it was an attempt to tarnish him and the Republican party.
“The Radical Left doesn’t want people talking about TRUMP & REPUBLICAN SUCCESS, only a long ago dead Jeffrey Epstein – Just another Witch Hunt!!!” he added.
His post prompted a wave of reactions, with many taking to social media to express their opinions.
One user highlighted an inconsistency in Trump’s statement.
They commented: “So it’s a hoax but he wants to release names? Which is it, Donny? lmao.”
Another user took a lighter approach, jesting: “He’s surpassed doubletalk and is now engaged in triple or quadrupletalk.”
Some reactions were more blunt, with one person writing: “What. The. Actual. Fuck.”
Trump’s post was one of several he made on Truth Social over the holiday season, with others addressing Epstein.
In a subsequent message, Trump said: “Merry Christmas to all, including the many Sleazebags who loved Jeffrey Epstein…only to ‘drop him like a dog’ when things got too HOT, falsely claimed they had nothing to do with him, didn’t know him, said he was a disgusting person, and then blame, of course, President Donald J. Trump, who was actually the only one who did drop Epstein, and long before it became fashionable to do so.”
