Massie says Epstein controversy ‘going to hurt Republicans in the midterms’

  • Republican Representative Thomas Massie said the Epstein controversy is likely to hurt Republicans due to voter apathy and distrust.
  • The controversy intensified after the Wall Street Journal published a July 24 story alleging Trump wrote Epstein a lewd 50th birthday note, which Trump denies and sued over.

  • Ongoing controversy surrounding the Epstein files may damage confidence in the Trump administration and hinder Republican efforts to retain control of Congress amid growing dissatisfaction over the handling of the disclosures.
