Democrats are once again planning a blitz of town hall meetings in Republican-led communities, though this time they are armed with a new and polarizing topic: Jeffrey Epstein.
The issue of the so-called “Epstein files” — including the details of high-profile people associated with the disgraced financier and sex offender — continues to divide the GOP, with some calling for further transparency and others, including the president himself, urging people to move on.
“Let them destroy each other. If we have to throw a log on the fire, we’ll do it,” one House Democratic aide told The Hill.
Further fuel for such fires followed a report from The Wall Street Journal that revealed the alleged existence of a “bawdy” 50th birthday card from Trump to Epstein. The president has denied the validity of the letter and has filed a $10 billion defamation lawsuit against right-wing media mogul Rupert Murdoch,WSJ’s parent company Dow Jones and the two journalists whose bylines appear on the story.
During the town halls, Democrats will reportedly attempt to marry the Epstein fallout with their previous attack lines, including broken promises by Trump and the GOP to lower costs for working families.
