Trump’s ambitions collide with Epstein, Fed and health concerns

For President Donald Trump, who benefited from his political career about the voters ’concern about Washington’s elite, the health of his predecessor and the wealth of Wall Street, last week presented a reflection of wealth.
Trump’s efforts to escape the uproar on Jeffrey Epstein failed amazingly, after the Wall Street Journal published a story that he once sent a suggestive birthday message to the disgraceful financier – a claim that the president denied.
The White House was forced to show that Trump was not perfect. Jerome Powell, Trump Tours, indicates that he will try to shoot him before moving after concern about a violent response to the market.
Now, while Trump is preparing for a high -level trip to the United Kingdom next week to end a trade deal with Prime Minister Kiir Starmer, he finds himself a little weak.
There was a lot of Trump hoping to make fun of what he called a “week of victories”-the passage of the leading tax package earlier this month, approval of spending discounts this week, a set of favorable economic data, signing the Stablecoin Bill, and implementing his aggressive introductory agenda.
Instead, there were suddenly some holes in the shield of the president, which appeared in the times of his second term that could not be suppressed because it was bent from institutions, countries and political opponents.
Trump concluded the week that he had angrily published to social media and prosecute one of his senior allies in the press, Robert Murdoch, along with Dow Jones, Co. and News to defame.
The magazine stated on Thursday that Trump had prepared a letter of a book collected on Epstein’s fifty birthday. The president said that the message was “fake” and described the story of “false, malicious and delicious.
However, the report gave gasoline on a fire, especially among members of the Trump base, after the Ministry of Justice claimed that it had no evidence that Epstein had smiled political figures or kept the customer list. This conclusion flew in the face of promises from some of the major assistants that they will reveal new fundamental details about an issue that many loyalists see Trump as a smoking pistol that proves the presence of the so -called deep state.
“Weakness”
Trump’s supporters and FBI leaders are said to be Cash Patel and Dan Bonjino opposing Pam Bondi, while the president has repeatedly tried – and has so far failed to suppress anger.
“Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?” We are barking on a correspondent earlier this month. “People are still talking about this man, this crawl? This is incredible.”
This week, he rejected the questions from his base, and those who are concerned about Epstein are “weak” and that “I do not want to support them anymore!”
But what was previously a strong political tool for Trump – the escalating plots about Epstein, and the participation of Democrats – have now led to reverse results, with his supporters frustrated that his administration may cover the details they were hoping to launch.
“The focus on Epstein is in fact the best intention of your most loyal followers.” He said that the Ibstein case was a kind of loyal Trump supporter about the alleged deep state.
After release the magazine’s story, Trump moved quickly. Bondi directed to follow up the launch of some of the provisions of the major jury related to the case, although this did not stop the full release of the materials requested by his allies.
“The same fraud”
Separately, Trump’s national intelligence director, Toulcy Gabbard, directed the developed of materials from the Obama administration, which she said showed that the former president and assistants have sought to politicize intelligence over Russia’s role in the 2016 elections.
Trump has been repeatedly suffered a equal between Russia’s controversy and Epstein’s issue, indicating that both his political opponents. A special advisor in the end did not find evidence that Trump coordinated with the Kremlin to interfere in the 2016 competition.
“All this fraud is the same,” Trump said to America’s true voice in an interview broadcast on Wednesday.
Epstein Saga is a rare example of Trump struggling to transform the narration or change the topics in the news, according to a Trump ally, provided that his identity is not disclosed. The ally predicted that the matter will fade with the elections next year, but he criticized the White House step in February to hand over the right -wing influencers on a documented called “Epstein’s files”, which was largely reformulating the information that was previously released.
She even overwhelmed the president’s escalating campaign against Powell, which threatened to undermine the long agreements on the independence of the Federal Reserve. Trump thought about Powell’s refusal at a meeting on Tuesday with the legislators, where one of the White House officials said, provided that his identity was not disclosed that they expect the president to act soon to dismiss the head of the Central Bank.
For Trump, he serves his war against Powell an important political function, giving a voice to home buyers and borrowers who see the lending costs that affect their governor. But by Wednesday, Trump said that he would not remove Powell unless the Federal Reserve Chairman was forced to get out of fraud, as he nodded his head to increase the efforts made by the president’s allies to pressure the president about questions about the bank renewal project.
“Winning everywhere”
Trump retracted him to force Powell to get partially because of warnings that it would lead to a chaotic legal battle, according to one person familiar with the issue, who asked not to disclose his identity to discuss internal deliberations.
Problems dispersed what the White House wants to draw attention to: a winning series that includes the passage of a set of discounts in spending and the signature of StableCoin Bill Trump on Friday.
“We are winning everywhere,” Trump said at a signing ceremony for the Stablecoin legislation. “It is not soon – not even soon – and we will continue to do so.”
Although Trump has long been a long-standing political victories-the extension of his tax package, the smuggling of government agencies and a financing to suppress comprehensive immigration-Republicans know that each of them carries great political risks and that he will need to focus on selling his agenda.
Democrats have seized provisions that reduce the eligibility of Medicaid and the tax discounts that the wealthy benefit from, to lume their economic cash for Trump. And Trump is now two weeks from the next tariff, scheduled for August 1.
The President has fought warnings from economists that the customs tariff will threaten growth, increase supply chains and reach a new tax on consumers.
