Critics of President Donald Trump say he managed to slam the release of more Epstein files while simultaneously demanding his Department of Justice release even more files to embarrass Democrats.
“Now 1,000,000 more pages on Epstein are found,” Trump complained in a Friday post to Truth Social. “DOJ is being forced to spend all of its time on this Democrat inspired Hoax. When do they say NO MORE, and work on Election Fraud etc. The Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans.”
“Release all of their names, embarrass them, and get back to helping our Country!” he added, in his signature style of oddly placed capital letters. “The Radical Left doesn’t want people talking about TRUMP & REPUBLICAN SUCCESS, only a long ago dead Jeffrey Epstein – Just another Witch Hunt!!!”
Many critics on X shook their heads at the muddled directive.
“Trump to DOJ: Name Epstein-Linked Democrats to ‘Embarrass’ Them, But Stop All Further Releases,” posted one critic on X.
Brett Meiselas, who is the co-founder of liberal group MeidasTouch, cited Trump’s claim that “The Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans,” pointing out on X that “This is a tough argument for him to keep making, being that he was a Democrat at the time.”
“It’s kind of incredible Trump has had such a 180 on the Epstein files,” said Daily Beast writer and author Molly Jong-Fast. Meanwhile, Politico Senior Affairs Reporter Kyle Cheney said Trump is getting “frustrated at [the] never-ending Epstein saga.”
PunchBowl News Founder Jake Sherman reminded readers that “The president signed the bill into law which set this into motion,” referring to the Epstein Files Transparency Act that Trump signed last month.
Other social media critics simply wrote off the president’s garbled message, describing the post as “definitely the actions of an innocent man.”
