Trump presses when Epstein's Storm rages around his government

Donald Trump very rarely loses control of his own story. But the Jeffrey Epstein saga is beyond its strength to suppress.

It is a new turn for the president and contradicts the loudest and most conspiratorial faction in his Maga movement.

In exceptional cases, he becomes a victim of a conspiracy that is out of control, not the initiator. It looks like the insider, which covered up, does not destroy the ultimate outsider and deep state.

Speak some of the most visible personalities of Magas. Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene warned of “significant” reverberation in the movement of what some Trump supporters see as a cover-up. “It's just a red line that exceeds it for many people,” she told Manu Raju from CNN.

Tensions between General Prosecutor Pam Bondi, the FBI director Kash Patel and the deputy of Patel, Dan Bongino, cooks, are memories of the chaos and the dysfunction that scarred Trump's first term, but was less obvious in his more productive second presidency.

If someone should know that the government does not calm down and make conspiracy theories disappear, then it is Trump. He turned some of the most notorious false intrigues in the history of American politics, from racist imagination to President Barack Obama's place of birth to the history of democracy that he won the 2020 election to bring him back to power in 2024.

But Trump's mastery of the conspirator did not help to suppress the Epstein drama. The Ministry of Justice published a memo last week in which there was no evidence that the disgrace financier and the convicted sex offender kept a list of customers or that he was murdered in prison. But as the President Bondi could have said, the people ignite that there is no there, only the fire of the conspiracy.

This left the president in a worse place on Monday when CNN reported that he was increasingly frustrated by a controversy that has been going on and overshadow for almost a week, which the White House sees as a growing list of victories at home and abroad.

One big question is whether Trump endangers damage in his own political coalition if he cannot calm the excitement about the Epstein Memo of the Ministry of Justice.

Trump has been the most dynamic right figure in the country for a decade. He built a brand by tearing down things and crushing Washington rules. But if he cannot end a Maga media revolt, he may enter a rocky time with a force that has long maintained it.

Nevertheless, it would be unwise to underestimate his power.

Trump converted the GOP in its populist nationalist picture. Legislators who challenge him are often excommunicated. At the Trump campaign, the trust and dedication that he inspired among his followers was noticeable.

Maga Media Influencer who criticize him seem to understand that her status in movement is based on the reflected honor of his megastar: Before Trump's recent strikes against Iran warned that he risks to separate his base by starting foreign wars – but most fell in line again than the bombs fall.

“Donald Trump has a very important influence on the Republican Party, and I think everyone who thinks this is the end of Donald Trump's GOP -GOP,” said Kristen Soltis Anderson, a Republican strategist and CNN employee, on Monday to Kasie Hunt on “The Arena”. Nevertheless, Anderson added that this flap could be more problematic for Trump than the ideological battles that he forced the GOP Outsider status.

In the intermediate elections of the next year, if Trump is not on the ballot, a failure in enthusiasm among the republicans of the base could have an impact.

Steve Bannon, a political consultant of Trump, who now presented the Podcast “War Room”, argued on Friday at the Turning Point USA conference that it would not require much erosion in the Maga-based to achieve a dramatic effect. He said that if 10% of the movement were dissatisfied, the party could lose 40 house seats. That would mean a democratic majority.

It is worth seeing whether Trump is under pressure. In this case, a president who is an expert in distraction can contest new controversy with stage management.

Trump has often returned to the topic that is embedded in the DNA of the Maga movement -Hardline positions for immigration -to bring the gang together again. So it was not surprising that the border quota Tom Homan and the secretary of the home protection, Kristi Noem Noem, who spoke news shows on Sundays. But these favorites of the Maga administration were still unable to cover the rums over Epstein, which intensified all weekend.

These rumors were primarily initiated by Bondi, who pointed out Fox News at the beginning of this year that there could be a big revelation in this case. Trump has made strong support for his AG in the past few days, including the FIFA Club World Cup final on Sunday. She is also valuable for him and has transformed her department into a personal law firm for the president.

If she cannot suppress the noise from the political basis, there will be more whisper in Trump's ear about her performance. In the past, the President has dealt at his cabinet exhibitions under such circumstances.

Over the weekend on social media, Trump wrote that Bondi was “great” and was allowed to do her job.

But loyalty usually only works in the Trump administration. And one way to get to the right side of the story would be that the president distances himself from Bondi.

Meanwhile, CNN's team of the White House of the White House reported that the president, although President Bongino does not want to lose because of this problem, because it would be divided his cabinet, some expect the deputy FBI director not stay in his work in the long term.

The spokesman for the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, said Raju on Monday that he still had confidence in Bondi and trusted the President to do the right question on the Epstein question. The fact that the Republican in Louisiana is willing to ask such questions shows that the Attorney General is under pressure.

Trump, loyal, tried Trump to free himself from chaos by starting new conspiracy theories of accusing the Democrats of not releasing the files years ago. This has often worked in the past to tie his coalition together. But this time it doesn't work.

The President only opened the Democrat the way to check his decisions.

“The American people deserve the truth, all the trust and nothing but the truth to know how this all this dirty Jeffrey Epstein matter is,” said Hakeem Jeffries, House Minority leader, on Monday when he tried to expand Maga Splits. “This was a conspiracy theory that Donald Trump, Pam Bondi and Maga Extremists have had the flames of flames from subjects in recent years, and now the chickens are coming home to strain themselves.”

Top conservative influencers at the turning point conference and on Monday the podcasts continued to demand answers to Epstein on Monday, where he was given his money with which he was associated with and who reported for him.

All of this shows that the Epstein controversy probably doesn't disappear quickly.

One reason for this is that it is of central importance that Trump and his adjutants have promoted for years that the United States orchestrates are under the control of a “deep state” of secret services, billionaire financiers and dodgy political forces.

Trump typed this false mythology to build up his own power – and portrayed himself as a victim of CIA and FBI actions and arms justice because he was the Avatar of the Maga support hopes across the country.

Now it looks like he is supposed to face such lazy institutions that they do not bring down.

But it's not just about the president and his movement.

In view of its position and chaos that the Ministry of Justice records, there are an impact on the country.

The controversy offers a damn insight into modern politics and the contribution of a broken media environment to cover up the concept of truth.

The rejection of Maga media personality, to accept that the facts do not support a cover-up in relation to Epstein's alleged list of clients and his death in prison, reflects an extreme version of a strong trend in the desire to increasingly choose the number of citizens who support curated truths that support what they want to believe. Trump did more than any other politician to promote this.

The corrosive nature of Trump's conspiracy violence also threatens the Ministry of Justice and the FBI. Vitriol -Ricoching through the management suite risks that affect the core missions of the Doj and the office -which include fair administration of the judiciary and the protection of Americans from violent crimes and terrorism. It also shows that if the purpose of such agencies is spoiled by politics – as it was under Trump – the effects can sometimes get out of control.

And nobody in Maga Media talks about a key problem.

Many of those who voted for Trump in his diverse as the usual Republican coalition last year were not hardcore maga delicacies. They were Americans who were frustrated by the lifestyle crisis: the price of food, rent, childcare and education.

How is this political saga about a wild conspiracy about a dead and accused sex offenders with them?

It seems unlikely that the surveys will be up to date next November to decide the fate of the majorities of the Republican Congress.
