Trump Says Epstein Files Obsession Distracts From His Successes
UNITED STATES, JUL 17 – Trump accuses his own supporters of being manipulated by Democrats and calls the Epstein files controversy a hoax, blaming it for damaging his standing within the Republican base.
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump on Truth Social called supporters `pretty bad people`, criticizing their role in keeping the 'Jeffrey Epstein Hoax' alive.
- Last week, the Department of Justice and FBI publicly announced that Epstein’s 2019 death was ruled a suicide and no client list was found, exacerbating the dispute.
- During tarmac comments on Tuesday, Donald Trump said `pretty boring stuff`, and earlier he had expressed support for releasing `credible` documents.

- In Congress, House Republicans have blocked efforts to release Epstein files, U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie joined Democrats pressing for release, and GOP members face next year's mid-term elections under mounting pressure.
