  2. No problem, his sycophant base won’t give a single fuck. Trump raped children and they love child rapists now, not a problem for them at all.

  3. He is fighting to hide them like he hid his taxes, and we all know how that ended…

  4. It’s crazy how anyone could believe that this fool isn’t in the files and believe him when he says that it’s now a hoax.
    Why journalists arent pressing him, by saying “If it’s a hoax, why did you campaign on it and what’s stopping you from releasing said hoax ?” Is beyond me .

  5. I dunno, it almost looks like we’re coming down to some sort of endgame. There’s not much more maneuverability after you say the whole thing is just a Democratic hoax. What’s next?

  7. For all the MAGA who keep asking “why didn’t Biden release them?!?!”

    I thought you guys believed Trump was a better leader than Biden? Why are you holding Trump only to the standard of a leader who you feel is as terrible as Biden? Why wouldn’t he prove he’s the better president by doing what Biden didn’t and why wouldn’t you want him to do that by releasing the files?!? Because how is Trump/the government refusing to release the files helping the victims you have claimed you care about for the past 6 years?

  8. Clearly, Trump is lying. We know that because his mouth is moving.

    He is also panicking. He is in a trap, he knows it, and he is desperately looking for any way out.

  9. When trump uses “it’s a democratic hoax” he is guilty as sin

  10. He’s never going to let them out. Christ knows how bad they are for him.

  12. …He knows that many in his base, who are not Democrats, want the list released too, right?

  13. Only Trump’s campaign focused on the Epstein files. 

    Trump won the election. 

    But *now” its a “hoax” from the opposition party?

    So the framing of this is:

    *Democrats tricked Trump into campaigning on the Epstein files so if he won they’d use it against him?*

  14. “The president claimed that despite the thousands of pages of documents that have been released, the whole scandal is “really a Democrat hoax because they’re trying to get people to talk about something that’s totally irrelevant to the success that we’ve had as a nation since I’ve been president.”

    “He elaborated further — not that it made sense.
    “So what they’re trying to do with the Epstein hoax is get people to talk about that instead of speaking about the tremendous success like ending seven wars,” he said. “I ended seven wars. Nobody’s going to talk because they’re going to talk about the Epstein whatever.”

    And then he had a flyover at exactly the same time as the press conference to “honor a Polish Fighter Pilot” who died in an air show crash recently. So sus this administration.

  15. He campaigned on a Democrat hoax?

    That’s a bold move, Cotton; let’s see how it plays out.

  16. Yeah, that lie worked perfectly during his campaign, among 1000s of other lies.

  17. and not a fucking journalist alive is asking him about this

  19. That’s weird since Trump was a registered Democrat when Epstein victim Maria Farmer told the FBI he ought to be looked into in 2006

  22. Trump being a competent president is a Republican hoax.

  23. He seems to be losing his mind. Whenever he speaks, I can’t help but wonder what the fuck will tumble out of that maw next.

  24. I guarantee you 90% of his base won’t make the connection that these Epstein files he is calling a hoax are the same ones he promised to release. Or if they do make the connection they will just instantly rationalize it away. Like “Oh the files used to be real but now the Democrats corrupted them so it’s a hoax now.”

  25. It may bring him down. But it won’t change the direction the country is going in or far-right rule. If Trump becomes a liability for the Project 2025 crowd you know what they’ll do.

  26. What’s the probability that “Judge” Kavanaugh is listed in the Epstein files?

    4 F’s, Renete, etc.

    Refuse self!!!

  27. Has any journalist asked him if it’s the same kind of Democrat Hoax that Covid was? When he said that was a Democrat Hoax?

    Yeah yeah they won’t ask, but I’d really like to know how he’d reply to that question.

  28. Is the roasting in the room with us?

    Tired of this bullshit – release them

  29. I would love to see a supercut of him repeatedly demanding the Epstein files be released.

    EDIT: changed shortcut to supercut.

  31. He’s a deeply stupid son of a bitch with a predictable routine that his deeply stupid supporters continue to enjoy.

  32. So telling why the media doesn’t press every maga politician who campaigned on releasing these files. Or how quickly the far right influencers forgot they believed there was a hidden cabal of predators that did this stuff and poof nope; hoax. So it’s either you were a bold faced liar and profited off those lies in endorsements or political gain or just as likely you are willfully running diversion for those guilty of these crimes or you yourself are a guilty party.

  33. I just want one reporter to ask him to his face how he was dumb enough to fall for a democrat hoax if this is in fact a hoax

  34. I thought he campaigned on immigrants eating pets. 

  35. South park needs an episode where he just calls everything rigged or a hoax. 

  36. To be fair, he also said that they didn’t exist. Now it’s a Dem hoax. Which is it? Neither or..?Interesting debacle to campaign on.

  39. The dipshit finally flew too close to the projection sun. Now I hope he burns.

  40. Trump is fucking satan. Fox News confirmed it just moments ago.
