YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump lashed out at fellow Republicans who have been calling for his administration to release documents related to disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, casting the files as a distraction spun up by Democrats to undermine his agenda.

“It’s all been a big hoax. It’s perpetrated by the Democrats and some stupid Republicans, and foolish Republicans fall into the net, and so they try and do the Democrats’ work,” Trump told reporters on Wednesday as he met with Bahrain’s crown prince at the White House.

Trump’s comments followed a social media post earlier in the day in which he cast the clamor for documents related to Epstein as a “new SCAM” and expressed dismay that “PAST supporters” had bought into it “hook, line and sinker.”
