Part 5/10:
President Trump has been pressured multiple times on the Epstein scandal, often denying the significance of the case publicly. He took to Truth Social to dismiss the Epstein files as a "scam" and a "hoax," criticizing the narrative as flawed and driven by bad actors. Nonetheless, he acknowledged that "credible files" should be released, suggesting an openness to transparency if the evidence warrants it.
This stance indicates that the Epstein matter remains a political hot potato—one that Trump appears increasingly uncomfortable addressing directly, yet cannot entirely dismiss. As Kia points out, the more Trump downplays the case, the more questions are likely to arise from the public and media.
