Trump Is Getting SCORCHED on His Own Website — by His Own Fans — Over the Epstein Fiasco
There's a revolt currently underway on Trump's beloved Truth Social platform.
Greetings, Being Liberal fans. There’s a lot currently going on in MAGA world, and keeping up with it all to bring you the most relevant news stories takes time and effort. Before we get into today’s story, please take the time to become a paid subscriber so we can continue this work. Thanks!
If Trump thought his lengthy Truth Social post that completely dismissed the importance of the Epstein files issue would quell the outcry from his base, he was sorely mistaken.
Here’s a quick recap from our reporting yesterday on how we got here:
If you’ve been following our reporting on this developing story over the last few days, you should have a good understanding of how we got to this point — AG Pam Bondi pissed a lot of MAGA heads off with her conflicting statements about the existence of the “Epstein list”; FBI Director Kash Patel and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino pissed a lot of MAGA heads off by confirming that Jeffrey Epstein did indeed kill himself; Bongino threatened to resign after a heated clash with Bondi over her handling of the case; Trump compounds the anger during a Cabinet meeting and scolds a reporter for asking about the Epstein case; and now, Trump has made things worse with a post to his Truth Social platform this Saturday.
For reference, you can read Trump’s full Truth Social post here.
As of this Monday, Trump’s post has over 46,000 replies, and just a cursory glance down the comment thread shows that most of the replies are negative. If you told us a year ago that Trump would be getting slammed on his own platform by scores of brokenhearted supporters, we wouldn’t have believed you.
Below are a few screenshots of the replies, and as you can see, the anger and heartbreak is palpable.
The question is, where do these people turn now? They’ve been bolstered by almost a decade of Epstein conspiracy theories, and now Trump is throwing them under the bus. We all know MAGA’s propensity for violence.
This is getting less entertaining and more scary.
And he should be. Everything must be reopened: investigation of Epstein's death, witnesses called from his & Ghislaine's trials, and call on "Jane Doe" to n testify, all b4 Congress...https://www.scribd.com/document/326057168/Jane-Doe-Declaration-as-Filed
