President Trump’s defense of Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files on Truth Social triggered an unprecedented negative reaction, with more replies criticizing the post than likes or shares, a phenomenon known as being “ratioed.” This backlash marks the first time Trump has received such widespread disapproval on his own social media platform. The post, which dismissed interest in Epstein as a waste of time, appears to have backfired due to growing frustration among Trump’s supporters regarding unfulfilled promises related to the Epstein case. The internal division reflects disappointment that the Justice Department found no list of Epstein’s clients and that no further files would be released, leading to calls for Bondi’s resignation and criticism of Trump’s stance. This incident highlights a significant challenge for the administration as it attempts to unify its base ahead of upcoming elections.
