Trump Admin Rages Over Epstein Jokes, Not His Guest List
The Trump administration launched into a tirade against ABC and Jimmy Kimmel for a segment that dared to mention Donald Trump's connection to Jeffrey Epstein. While The Hill focuses on the administration's fury over 'jokes,' it conveniently skirts the public record: Trump himself admitted in 2019 to knowing Epstein 'for 15 years' and flying on his jet. The source of anger wasn't misinformation,
but uncomfortable, verifiable truths – truths that the public was supposed to forget for the sake of political optics. The media's role, apparently, is to relay the outrage, not to connect it to the public statements and documented appearances. One might wonder if the same level of presidential anger would be applied to public figures who flew on that infamous plane far more often than average
citizens, or if selective memory is just another privilege of power.
