Has Trump ever expressed concern for Epstein victims?
Also, it was a GWB Republican, who went on to serve in Trump’s cabinet, not Democrats, who cut the infamous sweetheart deal with Epstein.
And there were no “very public trials” of Epstein. He got a very generous plea deal from Acosta the first time and died in prison pending trial (in custody of the Trump DOJ) the second time.
Trump probably thought he had managed to kill this story in August but in fact it was always scheduled to resume when Congress came back into session thanks to Comer’s ill-considered investigation… and it was Q-MAGA that revived this story this year and the ridiculous attempt at pretending to release the Epstein files by the Bondi DOJ that blew this up for Trump. Democrats are certainly exploiting it, but they can’t claim credit for creating the maelstrom.
And Trump’s own long and fairly well documented friendship with Epstein and his own comments on the subject have also fed the insatiable demand for more disclosure.
