Bizarre: President Trump Says Only “Bad People” Want To Keep Discussing The Epstein Files

Okay, the more President Trump speaks on the Epstein files, the worse it gets.

I don’t say that as a Never Trumper either, but as a supporter of Trump ever since he walked down those golden escalators.

Trump first addressed the Epstein files today as he was set to leave the White House.

Trump, while taking questions from the press, shared that Comey, Obama, and Biden created the Epstein Files.

See here:

JUST IN: President Trump doubles down and says the Epstein files are just “made up” by Comey and Obama, says AG Pam Bondi is handing it “very well.”

“These files were made up by Comey, they were made up by Obama, they were made up by Biden.“

As he was leaving Pennsylvania, he was again asked about the files.

A reporter asked Trump what he thinks about his supporters being interested in the Epstein files.

Trump responded that he doesn’t know why his supporters are fascinated with Epstein’s case and that the files were boring.

Per The Hill:

President Trump on Tuesday said he did not understand why many of his supporters were so fixated on the case of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, as uproar over Epstein-related documents has stoked discontent among members of his base.

“I don’t understand it, why they would be so interested. He’s been dead for a long time. He was never a big factor in terms of life. I don’t understand what the interest and what the fascination is. I really don’t. And the credible information has been given,” Trump told reporters as he departed an event in Pennsylvania.

“I don’t understand why the Jeffrey Epstein case wold be of interest to anybody. It’s pretty boring stuff. It’s sordid, but it’s boring,” Trump added. “And I don’t understand why it keeps going. I think really only pretty bad people, including fake news, want to keep something like that going.”

The Justice Department and FBI issued a joint memo last week that stated Epstein did not have a client list and confirmed he died by suicide in his New York City jail cell in 2019. The findings incensed members of the MAGA movement, who have for years pushed conspiracy theories about Epstein’s death and claims that prominent Democrats would be named on a client list.

Epstein, accused in several cases of sex trafficking young girls, ran in high-powered circles with figures that included Trump, former President Clinton, Britain’s Prince Andrew and a number of other celebrities and ultrawealthy individuals. Epstein’s associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, has been convicted of sex trafficking.

Many Trump supporters were furious about his comments:

🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump says that we are “bad people” for demanding for the Epstein files and list to be released.

Hey Donald, the bad people are the PEDOPHILES !!!!

Donald Trump just said "only pretty bad people want the Epstein case to keep going."

I truly think he just lost me.

Who else?

Nothing but respect for all my fellow "pretty bad people."

Don't stop talking about Epstein and the Trump administration's cover-up of the most notorious pedophilia and child sex trafficking conspiracy of all time.
