Ahead of Trump’s inauguration, hopes surged for the release of Jeffrey Epstein files. This expectation stemmed from Trump's previous orders to release other sensitive documents. However, the belief in substantial new revelations was misguided, as Trump's involvement was among numerous powerful figures under scrutiny. Efforts to maintain this narrative created a scenario where Trump would inevitably disappoint his supporters, especially after statements by figures like Pam Bondi intensified the urgency and mystery surrounding those files.
