After finally doing the bare minimum in releasing the files, the Trump administration has entered phase two of its cover-up. Despite thousands of documents referencing the president, he's not only chosen to lie about being completely absolved, but to refuse to acknowledge and apologize for his past relationship with a known sex offender. His disregard for the victims, from recklessly exposing their identities in the files to blocking any chance of prosecuting abusers, showcases both incompetence and malice.
When it comes to the Epstein files, no president has been more transparent and forthcoming as Trump. Amid the unprecedented 3.5 million pages released, coupled with the unprecedented media blitz to frame Trump, the evidence still clears his name. On the other side, Democrats like Bill Clinton and Stacey Plaskett have photo evidence of potential wrongdoing, which is why the left is desperate to paint this as a Trump story.
For decades, presidents of both parties, as well as billionaire elites and their media allies, have helped bury Epstein's secrets. Now, they point fingers while guarding the same files. From Donald Trump to Bill Clinton, they've all maintained secrecy surrounding Epstein's domestic and foreign connections, issuing a slap in the face to Americans who want the whole truth. After years of cover-ups, and especially as the DOJ shows no interest in prosecuting abusers, it's likely both sides of the aisle will continue to protect the guilty.
