What this episode is about

Donald Trump erupted during a press conference in the Oval Office when questioned about his connections to Jeffrey Epstein after his name appeared 38,000 times in recently released Epstein documents. In a contentious exchange with a CNN reporter, Trump dismissed the inquiries as politically motivated, criticized the media, and deflected attention to what he claimed were more pressing national issues.

Key takeaways

  • When pressed about Epstein, Trump chose offense—'Smile more'—classic deflection from accountability.
  • 38,000 mentions in Epstein documents and Trump's still shouting 'Democrat problem.' Can gaslighting win elections?
  • Claiming Epstein's a dead issue, Trump ignores real victims—survivors remain trapped in the shadows of the inquiry.
  • Shame in the UK, but Trump shrugs it off—actions reveal who truly bears the moral burden of association.
  • Enemies of the state? As Trump colossally downplays evidence, the real danger might be audience indifference.

Full transcript with timestamps

Donald Trump just blew up during a disastrous press conference in the Oval Office when he was pressed by members of the media about his relationships with Jeffrey Epstein and the fact that he appeared 38,000 times in the partial release of the Epstein documents from Friday. Only 3 million documents were produced. There's at least 3 million documents that are still being concealed by Trump's DOJ. So when Trump was asked about his connections with Epstein and his appearance all over the files by Caitlyn Collins of CNN, Donald Trump just lost it at her and he started saying, "You know, my problem with you is that you are a you're a young woman and you don't smile. You need to smile more, young woman." It was gross. He had a meltdown. Just watch what took place.

Let's play this clip. time for the country to get on to something else really, you know, now that nothing came out about me other than there was a conspiracy against me literally by Epstein and other people. But I think it's time now for the country to maybe get on to something else.

What would you say to people justice, Mr. President? Something that people care about. Yeah. What What did you say? Go ahead.

What would you What would you say to the survivors who you are the worst reporter? No wonder CNN has no ratings because of people like you. You know, she's a young woman. I don't think I've ever seen you smile. I've known you for 10 years. I don't think I've ever seen a smile on your face. You know why? You know why you're not smiling? Because, you know, you're not telling the truth and you're you're a very dishonest organization and they should be ashamed of you. Okay, go

ahead. Healthcare. And then more questions were asked of Donald Trump's about his dark past and the fact that he appears 38,000 times in the Epstein files. Five thousand different documents he appears. Donald Trump says, you know, the real issue here, this is just a Democrat problem and I've been vindicated. No, you haven't. There are some of the most grotesque allegations imaginable in these files about you and about people in your regime. here. Play this clip.

Got to get back to running the country, too. Millions and million every week. You know, when MC was alive, nobody cared about him. When he's dead, they care about him. But it's really a Democrat problem. It's not a Republican. It's a Democrat problem. The only problem Republicans have is that we have to get back to number one, running our country, and then number two, very importantly, letting the public know what a great job we're doing. Then Caitlyn Collins, who was on fire during this Oval Office presser, she did a great great job. She said, 'Well, what do you say to the survivors, the victims whose images, whose names, whose personal identifying information was put out there by your regime in the incompetent and malicious way? You've all handled the Epstein file production while you're still withholding documents. And Donald Trump seems to attack the survivors publicly. Here's what he's doing here. Play this clip.

I'm sure they're fine. Otherwise, it would have been major headlines. A lot of women who were are survivors of Epstein are unhappy with those redactions that came out. Some of them entire witness interviews are totally blacked out. Do you think that they should be more transparent that they thought they released too much? You know, I heard that and you tell me something else.

Then Caitlyn Collins doesn't stop there. She says, "Well, what about the fact that lots of people very close to you have their names all over this thing? Have you seen it? Have you read about it? Elon Musk, Howard Lutnik, and others. And Donald Trump says, "Nah, no one's even talking about that. So, it can't be a big deal. It would be in major headlines." It is major headlines right now. World leaders across the world are being toppled by their connections. And you're at the heart of the cabal, Donald. Here, play this clip right here.

On the FC, you talked about Democrats who were in there. Elon Musk was also in there. and so was your commerce secretary Howard Lutnik and correspondence that he had with him. Did you read those new files that were published by the Department of Justice?

I didn't I have a lot of things I'm doing and a lot of things I don't I don't know. Uh you mentioned two names. I'm sure they're fine. I'm sure they're fine. Otherwise, it would have been major headlines. A lot of women who were

Donald Trump is asked about the fact that the prior Lord Mendelson, former United Kingdom ambassador to the United States, he's had to give up his titles, his affiliations, everything because his connections with Epstein were less than Donald's. But they feel shame in the UK. There's something called shame, and they feel it rightfully so for engaging in despicable acts. But Donald Trump's like, "Ah, whatever. It's too bad. Too bad." Here, play this clip.

A few months ago, you had in your office here Peter Mandlesson, the British ambassador. You were shaking hands with him over a trade deal. He's today being forced to resign from the House of Lords, the upper house of the British Parliament over his links to Jeffrey Epstein. Just wondered if you had any any reaction to that since obviously he was

I didn't know about it, but uh I really don't know too much about it. I know who he is, but it's too bad. And then Donald Trump was asked about someone else who appears in the Epstein files over and over again in connection with Donald Trump's first administration as well, Vladimir Putin. So yesterday during a press conference, Donald Trump said that he spoke with Putin and because it was so cold in Ukraine, Putin promised Donald, according to Donald Trump yesterday, that there would be no more attacks in the foreseeable future on Ukraine. They would stop the Shahi drones from Iran. They would stop the ballistic missiles and cruise missiles being shot at residential complexes and energy infrastructure and government buildings and on bus stops and at people in Ukraine and Kev and Kkefe and across the various oblasts. And Donald Trump said, "No, no, no. Putin Putin's a man of his word." Donald Trump said he said

he would do it for a week. So the week ended on Sunday. So when I told you on Monday, I had meant that it was actually done and Putin kept his word. What do you mean? What are you talking about? Here, play this clip. Ukraine. On Ukraine, Mr. President. Um, yesterday you were talking about how Vladimir Putin had agreed to a pause during the cold weather. Overnight, those attacks have started up again. Apparently the worst.

It was Sunday. It was Sunday to Sunday and it opened up and he hit him hard last night. No, he he agreed. He kept his word on that. It was it's a lot. You know, one week is we'll take anything because it's really really cold over there. But it was on Sunday and he went from Sunday to Sunday.

You just wanted he didn't go further or go I would like him I want him to end the war.

And then Donald Trump uh you want me before I go to that, you want me just to show you what he said yesterday so you can contract. Okay. I just showed you the statement he made today in the Oval Office. Okay. 24 hours ago. This is what Donald Trump said in the Oval Office. Just so you can see that he's just the biggest liar about everything. Here, play this clip.

There's tremendous hatred between Zalinsky and Putin. Tremendous hatred. I mean, it's a shame, but uh it's taken longer than we thought. I did call up President Putin and he's agreed. He's put it out to they have the same cold wave that we do. Maybe different because it's pretty far away, but it's the equivalent. And Ukraine's a very cold country. It's much colder than us. It's colder than they say on average it's Canada or colder. And on top of that, they have a tremendous cold weather. And I asked him if he wouldn't shoot for a period of one week, no missiles going into Kiev or any other towns and he's agreed to do it. So, it's something.

There are times where I don't like Caitlyn Collins interview. This is really good stuff. I got to give I got to give credit where it's due. So here Caitlyn Collins asked Donald, "What did you mean when you said that you wanted to nationalize elections?" And Donald Trump's like, "Well, when you think about it, states are just agents of the federal government anyway." Okay. So You don't believe in the first amendment.

Clear? You don't believe in the second amendment because you all said that if someone has a concealed carry license, they deserve to be killed. You don't believe in the fourth amendment because you don't believe in judicial warrants. So, you therefore don't believe in protections against unreasonable searches and seizures. And you hate states rights, the 10th amendment, right? The whole thing is states rights. States rights. That's what they told us all along. This is about states rights. Well, now you're saying, "Actually, states don't really even exist. They're just agents of the federal government.

Okay. You don't understand. You don't understand the way federalism works, but you do understand the how you how you behave like a wannabe authoritarian. Here, play this clip.

What exactly did you mean when you said that you should nationalize elections? And which 15 states are you talking about?

I want to see elections be honest. And if a state can't run an election, I think the people behind me should do something about it. Because, you know, if you think about it, a state is an agent for the federal government in elections. I don't know why the federal government doesn't do them anyway, but when you see some of these states about how horribly they run their elections, what a disgrace it is. I think the federal government when you see crooked elections, and we had plenty of them, and by the way, we had them last time, but go to 2020, look at the facts that are coming out, rigged, crooked elections. If we have areas, take a look at Detroit, take a look at Pennsylvania, take a look at Philadelphia, you go take a look at Atlanta, look at some of the places that tre horrible corruption on elections and the federal government should not allow that. The federal government should get involved. Uh these

are agents of the federal government to count the votes. If they can't count the votes legally and honestly, then somebody else should take over. Then Donald Trump goes on to lie about Detroit, Pennsylvania, and Philadelphia. Play this clip.

Federal government, when you see crooked elections, and we had plenty of them, and by the way, we had them last time, but go to 2020. Look at the facts that are coming out. Rigged, crooked elections. If we have areas, take a look at Detroit, take a look at Pennsylvania, take a look at Philadelphia, you go take a look at Atlanta, look at some of the places that tre horrible corruption on elections and the federal government should not allow that. The federal government should get involved. Uh these are agents of the federal government to count the votes. If they can't count the votes legally and honestly, then somebody else should take over.

Constitution says it should be states that administer elections. Mr. President,

you know what? He then says, "Melania Trump is a movie star." Play this clip. Finally, I extreme I am extremely pleased to announce that this bill includes a newly designated Oh, wow. movie star Melania Trump foster youth to independence initiative. So, she really loves the children and she's had a tremendous success. So, it's the number one documentary in 19 years. Can you believe this? What do I get out of it? There's nothing out of it. Now I have So I had a top bottle, now I have a top movie star, but we have a great first lady. She loves children.

And then Cash Patel gave a appearance on state regime media. And he said that he's still 100% that Epstein died by suicide, which we all know at this point. That's almost certainly not what happened after reading these files. Let's play this clip. You told me when we last talked, this is eight months ago when we did an interview at the FBI in Quantico, um that you were convinced that Epstein killed himself in jail. Today, eight month eight months after that, are you still convinced?

Yes, 100%. Yes, sir. And then Cash Patel is asked by Brett Bear, do you have any regrets about the way the files were handled even right now? Like we know that the victims and survivors have been ret-raumatized. So, a normal human reaction to a question if you have regrets would be yes, you you you at a bare minimum you screwed up, but more likely y'all were malicious and are covering up a child sex trafficking, but at a bare minimum you were reckless. So, be human and apologize. Not this regime. Play this clip.

Professionals involved. Bouncing around the Epstein files. The last trunch uh we're told put out. Um, looking back since the beginning and you've been a part of talking about this and and DOJ has obviously produced these elements. Um, do you have regrets about how it's been handled?

Look, like any other hot topic issue, the American public and the world had a great interest in this. And what we did under President Trump's leadership is produced the most transparent DOJ in FBI history. Three other administrations had the opportunity to do this. And we produced everything we legally and lawfully could. We work with our partners in Congress. We follow the statutes and the court orders and we produce what three million some pages. So I think we got to the result in the right way. Could we have gotten there faster? I'm not really sure because of numerous court cases, multiple protective orders, multiple court ceilings, and so now we've produced everything we can while protecting victim's rights and violence.
