Jeffrey Epstein, the man at the center of a conspiracy theory creating political headwinds for President Donald Trump, was facing federal charges of sex trafficking underage girls when he was found dead in his New York prison cell.

President Trump said the outrage among his supporters over the Epstein case was just the latest “scam” cooked up by Democrats.

In the days since the Trump administration released a memo on Jeffrey Epstein directly at odds with conspiracy theories pushed by the president and some of his top lieutenants, Donald Trump’s movement and most ardent supporters are in revolt.
