Drawn to President Trump for his pledge to take down the political elite, some of his young constituents say he has failed them.
“Not to be trusted.” A “betrayal.”
This is how some young people on the right have characterized President Trump and his administration’s response to the Justice Department’s latest release of Jeffrey Epstein files. For them, the Epstein story is something of a full-circle moment in their political lives — a reason they cast their ballots for Mr. Trump in 2024 that has calcified into anger and disillusionment.
. . .
[T]hey say their faith in Mr. Trump has diminished in recent weeks as they have observed the administration’s response to the Epstein scandal. For his part, Mr. Schwemmer thinks the president has demonstrated a “lack of seriousness” and a pattern of “obfuscation” as communications related to Mr. Epstein have revealed a globe-spanning web of ties to powerful figures in politics, finance, professional sports and the arts. Included in the recently disclosed files are the names of six current administration officials, Mr. Trump’s among them.
They knew exactly what they were voting for.
They voted for a hateful, stupid, vicious, narcissistic, bigoted thug
I don’t believe for a second that they genuinely have any regrets, and I believe that they’d vote for him again if they can (assuming that 'Murica ever has another election…)
You know how, if you fall for one scam, they trade/sell your info to other scammers because they know you’re likely to fall for something else as well? That’s how I feel about these people: they may (eventually) leave the trump train, but they’ll be ripe pickings for someone else.
They’ll vote for the next republican, and the one after that, because they’re in a cult, and those republicans promises to hurt the people that the cult fear and hate
It’s disgusting, but it’s in their nature
If Mr Trebek says it, then that’s the way it should be.
You don’t say. Who could have possibly seen this coming. 😐
Don’t worry. They’ll still follow him.
Just why in the fuck would you ever have faith in this grifting pedophile in the first place? JFC.
Wait wait hangon - young conservatives are complete fucking morons?
Huh. Who knew?
I still to this day can’t believe anyone has ever trusted this fucking guy for anything. He’s not even a good or believable con man. It’s really hard to share a world with all these dumbass marks.
I was not aware that people who were born yesterday are allowed to vote.
Deport all trump voters to CECOT
I assume the one downvote is one dumb motherfucker who thinks MAGAts can still be saved.
Wow yeah surprisingly the child rapist con man turned out to be a bad guy.

The only sociopath in history to constantly brag on the world stage about being a piece of shit and somehow that escaped them
I feel like the term “some feel betrayed”is a perfect description of his presidency. Some will feel that he has betrayed and lied to them while some will still Ride Or Die. The only issue I see is that as the midterms get closer will these people who have allegedly turn their back on him will they vote for him still or not? There is an old saying about democrat and republican voters, democrats fall in love, republicans fall in line.
