Poll: Donald Trump humiliated by MAGA mob who fume over refusal to release Epstein files

American voters, particularly those in Donald Trump's MAGA base, are fuming over the president's apparent refusal to disclose the so-called Epstein files, as revealed by a recent survey.

The uproar follows the Trump administration's declaration to its followers that there isn't an Epstein list, despite previous campaign promises to unveil all involved parties.

Notably, it's Trump's own backers who are most irked by his sudden U-turn, with a new Democracy Institute poll indicating that 67% of MAGA supporters who voted for him last November are at odds with his decision not to release the client list, in contrast to 58% of Kamala Harris voters who also disagree.

First-time voters in 2024 appear to be particularly incensed by Trump's choice, with a staggering 71% opposing his decision. Among all Americans, the figure dips slightly to 63%, yet this still signifies a majority, according to the poll.

The incumbent's latest actions seem to be taking a toll on his approval ratings, signalling that even Trump's staunchest advocates might have found a reason to withdraw their support from the contentious figurehead.

Presently, data shows that 50% of Americans disapprove of President Trump's performance, reports the Mirror US.

All this turmoil has emerged after the Justice Department and the FBI issued an unsigned memo last week, asserting that there is no alleged Epstein client list, contradicting Attorney General Pam Bondi's February statement that the list was "on her desk."

The DOJ's decision has sparked controversy among Trump's supporters, with many viewing the Epstein case as a pivotal reason for backing Trump.

FBI Director Kash Patel and his deputy Dan Bongino, before assuming their roles, had consistently spoken out about the list and the alleged "deep state" efforts to conceal it from the public eye.

They also repeatedly insisted that Epstein did not take his own life. The DOJ memo confirmed that Epstein indeed died by suicide while detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in New York City in 2019.

On Saturday, the president took to social media to voice his discontent over the split within his staunch "Make America Great Again" following regarding this issue, throwing his support behind Bondi. In his extensive post, he made no reference to Bongino.

"What's going on with my 'boys' and, in some cases, 'gals?'" Trump penned. "They're all going after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We're on one Team, MAGA, and I don't like what's happening."

Nevertheless, following an exhaustive months-long review of the evidence held by the government, the Justice Department concluded in Monday's memo that no further revelations would be appropriate or justified.

The department highlighted that much of the information was sealed by a court order to safeguard victims, and only a small portion "would have been aired publicly had Epstein gone to trial."
