“I Don’t Want Their Support Any More!”: Trump Blasts MAGA Base over Calls to Release Epstein Files

HeadlineJul 17, 2025

On Wednesday, Trump dismissed questions about whether he would order the release of Justice Department files on Epstein as “boring,” and said he backed the release of any “credible” documents related to Epstein’s case. Trump later lashed out against members of his own MAGA movement over their demands he release the Epstein files, writing on social media, “Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support any more!”
