Trump's inability to 'stay on message' is raising new Epstein questions: journalist

Donald Trump’s Truth Social outburst on Friday, where he flipped out over reports that there are one million more Jeffrey Epstein documents that the Department of Justice needs to review and release, is another example of the president’s wild mood swings, making it difficult for the White House to take the focus off of him.

That is according to conservative David Drucker, who appeared on MS NOW’s “The Weekend,” and claimed Trump has gone from being sympathetic about others being swept up in the focus on the documentation on the convicted sex trafficker and snarling that he is caught up in it.

Drucker, who writes for the conservative Dispatch, was asked by fill-in host Molly Jong-Fast, “I mean, it does seem like the trump administration has done a pretty bad job with the Epstein information.”

“We talked about a few minutes ago how just a few days ago, he was talking about how he was saying this was unfair to people like President Bill Clinton because, hey, maybe they were just hanging out with the guy, and they didn’t do anything wrong. They just hung out with the guy years ago, and it was a way of talking about him [Trump].”

“That is one minute, then the next minute we get the social media storm from over the weekend, and so I don’t think you can really craft a message for Trump, and this has been true for decades; sometimes it’s a positive, sometimes it’s a not,“ he added, “You can’t craft a message for someone who won’t stay on message.”

“If the president would just release all the files, now that this law has been signed, just release it all and stop talking about it, he would be in much better shape,” He suggested. “Because we are all talking about and reporting about things that he is saying, that sends the story in a new direction. And if he wasn’t doing that, it would still be a lot to talk about, but it wouldn't be all about him.”
