Trump's Epstein Mention Leaves MAGA Fans Feeling Betrayed
The MAGA crowd is not happy. They feel like they've been let down.
A Big Letdown
A well-known conservative strategist, Rick Wilson, recently talked about how Trump's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy theory has caused a stir. This theory was a big deal for Trump supporters. They thought it would expose a lot of people they didn't like. But when Trump and his attorney general said there was no Epstein client list, it was like a bomb went off.
Trump's announcement was a big letdown. His supporters were expecting big revelations. They thought this would finally expose the people they believed were part of a deep state conspiracy. But instead, Trump basically told them to move on. This has led to a lot of anger and confusion among his supporters.
Turning on Their Own
One thing that stood out was how Trump's supporters reacted to Pam Bondi, the attorney general. Instead of blaming the usual suspects, they turned on her. Some called her a liar. Others demanded her resignation. It was like they were looking for someone to blame, and she was the easiest target.
No Apology, No Explanation
Trump didn't offer any apology or explanation. He just moved on to something else. This is something he often does. He makes big promises but doesn't follow through. His supporters are left feeling betrayed and confused.
Feeling Misled
The biggest issue for Trump's supporters is that they feel stupid. They were so sure that the Epstein theory would expose a lot of people. But when it didn't, they felt like they had been misled. This has led to a lot of anger and frustration among his supporters.
