Ex-Trump Aide Troye And Jim Acosta Cast Suspicion On Trump Over Epstein Rant

Trump White House official-turned-NeverTrumper Olivia Troye and Substack host Jim Acosta cast heavy implications of guilt on President Donald Trump after his meltdown at a cabinet meeting over Jeffrey Epstein.

After years of Trumpworld encouraging many a conspiracy theory about deceased rape criminal Jeffrey Epstein, the Trump Justice Department dropped a bombless bomb Monday when they claimed there actually was no client list, and no “Epstein Files” worth releasing. The announcement prompted fierce backlash from supporters.

When a reporter asked about the case during a cabinet meeting, Trump went off on him for a full minute.

Troye was a guest on Friday’s episode of The Jim Acosta Show, during which she and Acosta heavily implied that Trump is hiding some sort of guilt by his overreaction to the question:

JIM ACOSTA: I don’t know if you heard any of that interview I did with Julie Brown, but just unbelievably fascinating. And I wish I had been as immersed in this story over the years as she has been to some extent, because it’s, it’s kind of unbelievable the way this is all spilled out, you know, in front of all of us this week, the way Pam Bondi and the justice department tried to, you know, paper over this or sweep it under the rug.

And the way Trump just blew up. You and I were talking about this earlier today, you and I both know when, when Donald Trump has kind of an “oh shit!” moment or he’s, he’s having one of those moments where you can tell he is nervous about something, he doesn’t really hide it that well.

And on Tuesday when he said, Why are you still asking about Jeffrey Epstein? I said, Oh boy. I said something’s going on here. My, my experience covering him, there’s just, I don’t know what it is. I can’t put my finger on it, but something’s going on.

OLIVIA TROYE: Yeah, they definitely pushed a button. He definitely wanted to brush over it as fast as possible. And he was clearly upset about it, which is always a tell for Donald Trump usually that there was something more going on in the background.

So, you know, it’s interesting. It’s just, you, know, I think you have a bunch of conspiracy theorists that are now running the U S government and now they’re facing the reality of the situation and it’s coming back to haunt them and I, you know, well, I’ll be curious to see how this plays out.

JIM ACOSTA: I mean, you’re right.

OLIVIA TROYE: Something smells rotten in the state of Denmark is all I’m saying.

JIM ACOSTA: No question.

OLIVIA TROYE: It’s not adding up. It’s just weird.
