As far as President Donald Trump is concerned, the Epstein files are the last thing we should be talking about.
And yet, try as he might to get the public to talk about literally anything else — the popular deportations of criminals preying on American citizens, the massive tax cuts he’s bestowed on the American public, the ceasefires and peace treaties he’s managed to obtain in far-flung countries — they won’t. The internet, the media, and the general public do like a good scandal.
The Epstein case, of course, is the best scandal we’ve had the opportunity to obsess over in decades. For one, the crime was both spectacular and monstrous — the kind of thing Hollywood dreams up for James Bond films and that the public still finds revolting.

Then, Jeffrey Epstein’s death hardly seems on the up and up. It seems difficult to commit suicide while being constantly monitored by two prison guards, and even though Trump’s FBI affirmed the official story back in July, even the most die-hard MAGA fans among us struggle to believe it.
On top of that, the scandal potentially involves almost every member of America’s rich and famous: Bill Gates, Larry Summers, Woody Allen, Leon Black, Michael Wolff, Kathryn Ruemmler, Bill Clinton, former Prince Andrew, and (the leftist media would like us to think) even Donald Trump himself. We’re talking about a pedophilic ring that may very well extend across the globe.
