Why can't Trump shake Epstein? | US politics with Katie Stallard and Freddie Hayward

Once upon a time Donald Trump loved to talk about conspiracy theories. Now, well, not so much.


Why can’t Trump shake the Epstein story - and what could it mean for his presidency?


--


Last week, Katie Stallard and Freddie Hayward talked about how Donald Trump wanted his supporters to move on and stop talking about Jefrey Epstein, and how that seemed to be driving a wedge between him and the MAGA faithful.


Since then, the US president has continued his attempts to distance himself from the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. But it’s not working.


Freddie and Katie pick up the story and discuss what the Trump's Epstein connection could mean for his presidency.
