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.

    Every day the gymnastics needed for a Trump supporter gets more and more convoluted. First, he was speaking up in favor of H1B workers (so much for support of American workers), then his “no new wars” turned into broad support of Israel and military actions taken, now his “drain the swamp” has turned into “it’s not permitted to even talk about Epstein”.

    More proof that he is a shameless huckster with no honor in him at all. Sadly, much of his base is quite used to making excuses on his behalf and I’d imagine they can keep this up for quite a while. What a scumbag. I won’t be upset when he leaves the White House, whether that’s due to health problems, impeachment or running out the clock.
