Donald Trump insisted the Epstein Files are ‘pretty boring stuff’ and Howard Lutnick thinks that’s hilarious, but no one else is laughing

The US President doesn’t answer questions so much as he deflects them.

Donald Trump just put that skill on display to great effect when he was asked about the Epstein Files. And apparently it brought joy to the heart of his Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnick.

The President finally gave an extended answer on the Epstein Files. Unfortunately, it was woefully tone deaf to how the majority of Americans feel about the issue.

Trump: “I don’t understand why the Jeffrey Epstein case would be of interest to anybody. It’s pretty boring stuff. I think really only pretty bad people, including fake news, want to keep something like that going.” pic.twitter.com/5oGlqg61QN

Not only is it disgusting to play down the importance of the Epstein Files, but for some reason, Lutnick is laughing hysterically as Trump does it.

Regardless of what Trump claims, all of Twitter is immensely interested in full transparency and justice concerning the Epstein Files based on the replies below.

He literally ran on releasing the files but now he’s against it. Wonder why that is? https://t.co/eq8DulI7db

The abducting, raping and even sometimes the killing of children by sex predators and pedophiles was never meant to entertain anyone, Trump is a sick bastard. https://t.co/C9WoGUP0T3

Two separate clips of Trump addressing Epstein List to the press and in both of them you have Howard Lutnick hysterically laughing in the background.

The prosecutions should’ve started yesterday. https://t.co/DFBqeEikCZ pic.twitter.com/zDYTwX4KgZ
