Donald Trump has publicly criticized his supporters by calling those who demand the release of the Epstein files 'weaklings' and 'stupid people'. This criticism starkly contrasts with his earlier populist stance of valuing the poorly educated. The Trump administration had previously suggested that an Epstein client list existed and was awaiting release, but now claims that no such list ever existed. Many supporters are upset by this seeming betrayal, illustrating a rift between Trump and his base regarding promises made during his rise to power.
