Former U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fierce rebuke of some of his own supporters, calling them "weaklings" and denouncing their demands for further information regarding the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as being manipulated by what he termed as Democratic "bullshit," a statement that has exposed deepening fractures within the former president's base as he prepares for the next phase of his political journey.

Trump's angry comments, shared via his social media platform Truth Social, arrived just days after the Justice Department issued a memo concluding that there is no "Epstein client list" and that it would not release further documents in the controversial case, a decision that prompted outrage not only from opposition Democrats but also from several prominent conservative voices who have long alleged a deeper conspiracy linking high-profile individuals, including powerful figures across politics, business, and entertainment, to Epstein's extensive network of abuse and trafficking.
