President Trump's base is erupting in turmoil over the administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case files. Trump took to social media this weekend in an attempt to calm tensions and made a detailed plea to his base to leave the Epstein matter in the past.

President Donald Trump’s adviser-turned-foe Elon Musk demanded that the Trump administration release the so-called Epstein client list related to the late convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. Trump’s base has been outraged for several days over dissatisfaction with Attorney General Pam Bondi,

Trump's followers on Truth Social were not having it and accused the president of "gaslighting" and insisted his argument is "not holding water."

Historian Richard Hofstadter was a pioneer observer of what he called “The Paranoid Style in American Politics,” which he described in a 1964 Harper’s Magazine analysis of the use of loose facts and pseudo-facts to build an alternative reality for political ends.

Trump takes to Truth Social to support Attorney General Pam Bondi who has faced backlash from MAGA supporters regarding the DOJ's management of Jeffrey Epstein documents.

Attorney Spencer Kuvin, who represents one of Epstein’s victims, shared: "We certainly knew that Mr. Trump was a close friend of Mr. Epstein during those exact years that Mr. Epstein was molesting these young girls. "These are two gentlemen that definitely ran in the same circles."
