For weeks, Trump and members of his administration, some of whom spread anti-Democratic conspiracy theories about Epstein, have been trying to quiet the MAGA base after the FBI declared there was no client list and that the disgraced financier died by suicide. The same manosphere that boosted Trump isn’t letting his administration off the hook on Epstein, even as Trump has tried to dismiss the whole thing as a hoax.
The young men in his base aren’t doing better economically, and also feel stabbed in the back by Trump’s refusal to RELEASE UNREDACTED COPIES OF THE EPSTEIN FILES.
Yes, the young men who followed Trump in 2024 are becoming disillusioned and discouraged by their continued financial problems and broken promises about smashing elite pedophiles. Their lives are still miserable, and their heroic crusade seems to have ended without a satisfied conclusion.
