President Donald Trump is lashing out at his own supporters as he tries to clamp down on criticism over his administration’s handling of much-hyped records in the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking investigation, which Trump now calls a “Hoax.”

“Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this “bull——,” hook, line, and sinker,” Trump wrote Wednesday on his Truth Social site, using an expletive in his post. “They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years.”

“Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore! Thank you for your attention to this matter,” he went on.

    Man, it would be incredible if Epstein and Trump’s inability to shut up about it is what brings this regime down.

    Wait, wasn’t your whole political philosophy built around ignorance and spineless loyalty? If you train them to fall for scams and conspiracies don’t get shocked when they go for another conspiracy that you don’t like.

    …because I don’t want their support anymore!

    Damn, he’s gone “full Hitler in the bunker”. “Those damn traitors! They failed me!”

    The one thing that is in the back of my mind is what is Trump going to do next in order to attempt to cover up this Epstein list situation? Will he declare war on a foreign country? Will he declare war on the people of the United States who stand against him?

    Dude is freaking out because he’s finally being treated like any other politician, and his pathetic ego can’t handle it.

      PLEASE let this be the beginning of the end. I’ve aged like 5 years in the last 6 months.

      Also for anyone seeing this comment, here is the testimony of Katie Johnson who claimed Trump raped her and other 13 year old girls multiple times. Fair warning: it goes into excruciating and brutal details:

        Trump went on Howard Stern and boasted about barging into the dressing rooms at the Miss Teen USA pageant. He famously perved on his own daughter. This is nothing new

        • It’s nothing new to anyone not in the cult, but this could be the biggest chance of getting through to them. We need to get them to see the truth and use this tiny crack in their mental fortress to open it up: “well if he blatantly lied about this (based on all of this proof they’ve seen) what else has he been lying about?”

          I know that’s probably naive and overly hopeful, but I’m still doing my part.

            I’ve been hoping for his people to see the light since 2015.

            They stuck with him when he admitted that Trump University was a scam…

            They stuck with him when Mexico didn’t pay for the Wall…

            They stuck with him when a million people died of Covid…

            I hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

          His production assistant told stories of him sticking his fingers in the pageant contestants’ mouths “to check their teeth”.

          It only gets worse.

  • That’s generally what cult leaders do, they don’t bend to their followers, they beat them down as weak and fake believers until they fall back in line. And the ones who do get out immediately become the enemy and the devil in one.

    This is Jim Jones/David Koresh type shit

    • David koresh wasn’t in jim jones weight class. He was a pedo manipulator but those kids are dead because of the ATF and that piece of shit Janet Reno.

        Watch koresh berate his followers for doubting him though, that’s the same type of manipulation even if they weren’t the same. Currently that dude who runs Twin flames is doing all that abusive “how dare you question me, your god” bullshit.

    John Steward actually wrote a poem to conservatives about this situation, it goes like this:

    I’m guessing this is why they are working on rigging the elections. So he’ll be insulated even from people that peel off due to his pedophile platform.

      I’m guessing he has seen that enough on letters from companies and lawyers about his fuck ups and it makes him feel weak. So, he uses it when he wants someone else to feel weak.

        It feels like a recent development too… But then I’m not on twitter or truth social so it could just be I didn’t notice until recently.
