Trump's Current Struggles

  • 📉 Donald Trump's physical, mental, and political health are all described as "falling to pieces" and "in the crapper."
  • 💡 He is reportedly grasping at straws for distractions from the Epstein scandal, but even MAGA supporters are not buying them.

Epstein Scandal Developments

  • 📸 CNN published new, previously unseen photos of Jeffrey Epstein at Donald Trump's second wedding ceremony.
  • 📹 Additionally, footage from 1999 showed Trump and Epstein appearing friendly before a fashion show.

Trump's Reaction to CNN

  • 📞 When CNN called Trump for a comment on the photos, he reportedly paused, exclaimed "You've got to be kidding me," called the outlet "fake news," and hung up.
  • ⚠️ Despite his reaction, Trump's aides are concerned about his compulsion to answer the phone for everyone, driven by a love for the spotlight, even when headlines are negative.

Defense Strategy

  • 🗣️ Trump is now deploying Steven Cheung to respond to the allegations, moving beyond less prominent surrogates.
  • 🚫 Cheung dismissed the CNN report as "out of context frame grabs of innocuous videos and pictures of widely attended events," accusing CNN of trying to infer something nefarious.
  • 🤥 Cheung also claimed Trump had kicked Epstein out of his club for being a "creep."
