Was Trump in the know about Epstein? That’s the million-dollar question—one CNN, lawmakers, and online sleuths keep asking

Epstein file debate explained.

Earlier this month, Trump’s Department of Justice declared there was “no basis” to release more Epstein files.

Trump previously told voters he’d release Epstein docs if reelected, calling it “no problem.”

AG Pamela Bondi unveiled a “first phase” of documents in February. Then, silence.

Now, Trump says he wants grand jury materials made public—eventually.

So, what’s in those files? That remains the multi-million-dollar question—and some believe we’re only getting crumbs.

“Release the tapes, release the list,” reads one viral X post racking up thousands of reposts.

Some lawmakers have renewed calls for the DOJ to unseal all Epstein-related files, no redactions.

In recent comments, Trump has referred to Epstein as “this creep” and says the media “should move on.”

Pressed for comment, Trump reportedly fired off just six words: “You’ve got to be kidding me.”

That same clip shows him shaking his head and walking away from the cameras.

His comms director added: “Out-of-context frame grabs… disgustingly infer something nefarious.”

Steven Cheung also insisted, “The President kicked him out of his club for being a creep.”

Online, critics argue Trump’s reaction feels more dodgy than dismissive—“What’s he hiding?” one tweet reads.

New images speak loudly.

Despite denials, the visuals are hard to ignore: Trump and Epstein, side by side, smiling.

But with each new photo, it keeps coming back to life.

A KFile producer teased online: “This is just part one. Stay tuned.”

And Trump? He dismissed the whole saga with a sharp six-word comeback.

He also implied Joe Biden may have planted his name in the files for payback.

“I never had the privilege of going to his island, and I did turn it down, but a lot of people in Palm Beach were invited to his island.”

“In one of my very good moments, I turned it down. I didn’t want to go to his island.”
