Democrats Scramble After Promoting Fake “Evidence” Linking President Trump to Epstein — Forced to Delete Post When Reality Hits

Democrats thought they had finally struck gold in their desperate mission to tie President Donald J. Trump to Jeffrey Epstein.
Instead, they wound up humiliating themselves — again.

On Wednesday, House Democrats tried to ignite a media frenzy by releasing three Epstein emails that mention President Trump in vague, context-less language. They even redacted the name of the alleged victim, who is understood to be Virginia Giuffre — a former Mar-a-Lago employee who spent her entire life maintaining that she never witnessed Trump involved in wrongdoing.

But context has never been the Democratic Party’s priority.

Later that same day, Republicans on the House Oversight Committee shut down the narrative by releasing over 20,000 pages of unredacted documents, revealing the full picture: Trump and Epstein knew each other socially years ago, cut ties in the early 2000s, and nothing in the record indicates any misconduct by President Trump. The documents also confirm the redacted victim was Giuffre — which Democrats already knew.

Cue the meltdown.

Having failed to prove guilt through omission, Democrats tried a new angle: pointing to an email in which Epstein claimed he spent Thanksgiving 2017 with Trump. On X, they trumpeted that the “[d]ocuments show” exactly that, adding, “At the time, Trump was already president, and Epstein was already a convicted sex offender.”

If that claim were true, verifying it would be trivial — Trump was the sitting President of the United States, surrounded by the world press.

It wasn’t true. At all.

As conservative strategist Greg Price put it, Democrats fell for “an easily disprovable lie and the attempts to connect President Trump to Epstein’s crimes are a giant hoax.”

Realizing they had detonated their own talking point, Democrats deleted the post in embarrassment — but not before the internet archived everything and resurfaced evidence of Trump’s real Thanksgiving 2017 timeline:

Despite wall-to-wall media coverage during 2017, not a single outlet ever reported that Trump spent Thanksgiving with Epstein — because he didn’t. That didn’t stop Democrats from assuming the public would forget basic reality, or that they could spin an email into a scandal the media somehow “missed.”

They also knew Epstein was already a massive political topic that year. After President Trump nominated former federal prosecutor Alex Acosta for Secretary of Labor, the media immediately revived debates over Epstein’s past plea deal. The Miami Herald reported that at Acosta’s confirmation hearing, he was questioned extensively about Epstein.

And when rumors circulated that Acosta might replace Jeff Sessions as attorney general, the frenzy intensified — especially after a source claimed he once said during vetting that “I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone.”

None of those media theatrics ever produced evidence of wrongdoing by President Trump. Seven years later, that hasn’t changed. What Democrats have — after pouring time, money, and political capital into the effort — amounts to a few irrelevant emails and zero connection between Epstein’s crimes and the current President.

With 20,000 documents now public, one thing is undeniable:
This “blockbuster scandal” Democrats promised is nothing. And it always was.
