Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

Trump has long faced scrutiny over his past association with Jeffrey Epstein, who died in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on charges of sexual exploitation.

The Epstein case has also created tensions within the Republican Party. President Donald Trump and his MAGA supporters have clashed with elements of the party over efforts to close the book on Epstein, raising expectations of new revelations.
