The Epstein files are proving to be an Achilles heel for Trump. His calculation that his base would go along with everything he did was misguided as many see this case as an important part of their desire to unmask the deep state.
They love the idea of a Bill Clinton or Bill Gates being outed as part of a pedophile leftist elite but Trump's long association with Epstein is problematic for a false populist who leans much more into authoritarian narcissism.
This case has divided the MAGA base so much that the cracks in the foundation are impossible to conceal. Pam Bondi's mistake of teasing revealing the list and then pulling back by saying it doesn't exist is going to hurt the regime dearly.
The Trump reaction on his toxic platform revealed he is petrified of discovery and I would not be surprised if this is the loose thread which finally unravels the entire garment.
The MAGA base has a large contingent of Christian nationalist hypocrites who love inflicting cruelty on others and the Epstein drama would be their ultimate prize towards "owning the libs"thus justifying their conspiratorial instincts.
If the list gets out, then very likely it is the beginning of the end for Trump.
