‘The View’: Whoopi Goldberg Reveals Trump’s ‘Biggest Mistake’ in Trying to Distract From Epstein
UNITED STATES, JUL 22 – Trump faces calls to release Epstein files that could expose elite pedophiles while his base expects proof of Democratic corruption, amid ongoing political controversy in 2024.
- President Donald Trump ordered the Justice Department to release additional documents pertaining to its investigation into Epstein last week, citing pressure from his base.
- The July 6 memo, announced by Todd Blanche, defends the Justice Department’s findings, impacting supporters’ perceptions of the Epstein case.
- Reports indicate he first slept with his now-wife Melania aboard Epstein’s plane, nicknamed the `Lolita Express`, while The Wall Street Journal reports Epstein allegedly penned a salacious birthday letter to Trump.
- Seeking to quell outcry, Todd Blanche said `I anticipate meeting with Ms. Maxwell in the coming days`; he added that the meeting aims `about anyone who has committed crimes against victims`.
- It remains to be seen whether Maxwell's planned meeting will restore Trump supporters' trust, representing a `half-measure to quell MAGA infighting while snubbing calls to release the Epstein files in full`.
