Trump downplays the Epstein case, calling it "boring" and "a political scam."

US President Donald Trump publicly dismissed the media interest in the Jeffrey Epstein case, calling it a "scam" promoted by the Democrats. On social media, he accused his opponents of exploiting the issue for political purposes.

This comes days after the FBI confirmed the businessman's suicide and dismissed conspiracy theories.

“These scams and deceptions are all the Democrats are good at... their newest scam is what we will always call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my former supporters have bought into this nonsense, wholeheartedly,” the president wrote on social media.

Furthermore, at the insistence of the media, the American president questioned the excessive interest in the businessman who died almost five years ago and who now considers it a boring topic.

"I don't understand why anyone would be interested in the Jeffrey Epstein case. It's pretty boring. It's sordid, but it's boring, and I don't understand why it continues like this," he responded in a recent interview.

In early July 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI confirmed that Epstein committed suicide in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on the night of August 9, 2019.

The conclusion was supported by previous autopsies, forensic reports, and surveillance footage that showed no one entered his cell between 10:40 p.m. and 6:30 a.m.

The official report also revealed that Epstein assaulted more than 1,000 victims, many of them minors, and stored more than 10,000 videos containing child abuse material. Although more than 300 GB of digital evidence was collected, it will not be released under court orders. Authorities ruled out the existence of a "client list . "
