Trump faces backlash from own supporters as poll reveals anger over Epstein files - Trump's handling of Epstein case receives low approval, even among Republicans

Former President Trump is facing backlash from some of his supporters after the Justice Department declined to release additional files related to Jeffrey Epstein, the financier and convicted sex offender who died in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges.

The president asked his supporters to “let Pam Bondi do her job” as she faces scrutiny over handling the release of documents related to the disgraced financier.

A new poll shows 63% of voters disapprove of how Trump handled the Epstein case, despite his dismissal of critics as “weaklings."

Morning Consult's latest global leader approval rating, based on data collected between July 4 and July 10, shows Trump's approval rating at 44 percent and his disapproval rating at 50 percent.

President Trump said the outrage among his supporters over the Epstein case was just the latest “scam” cooked up by Democrats.

The Trump administration is facing growing backlash from members of President Trump’s political base after the Justice Department said there is no additional evidence to reveal in the Jeffrey Epstein case.

July 12 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump defended Attorney General Pam Bondi on Saturday amid backlash against her from some of Trump's supporters over how the Justice Department handled the investigation into the death of accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged clientele.

On July 6, a bombshell dropped on the MAGAverse. Axios reported via leaked Department of Justice documents that the government investigation found no mystery in the death by suicide of disgraced society pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and that he kept no client list.
